Plus he was friends with Bono.  Seriously, so what if he did? Was he right or was he wrong? Overall, I say he was right.

If a man does harm by standing up for the truth then so be it.

"There is not one single case of AIDS in this country that cannot be traced in origin to sodomy,” he said in 1988, ignoring other means of HIV transmission."
the man sounds like a complete moron. apparently he thinks hemophiliacs all engage in butt sex? come on, this is a dangerous level of ignorance.
In the Western world, AIDS began and spread as a homosexual disease. By 1988, I'm sure that that had changed dramatically, however, it is not an outlandish thing to say. This is completely biased and unfounded. Homosexuality was ONLY a major concern for HIV and AIDS because gay men did not use proper protection and safety during sex. (why would they?) It is just as contagious between a man and woman as man and man. Men and women used more protection for the purpose of birth control, which also served as a barrier against HIV. It was just an unfortunate scenario, caused by the absence of knowledge of the disease (and many others) during the horny times of the 60's and 70's. The eighties saw a huge boom as well, which is where much of the "blame" on homosexuals came from.

 What a rebuttal! You must take pride in being an ignorant fuck. Oh well, I don't care where you think AIDS "began". The fact remains that it affects so many more people than homosexuals, and it started out that way as well. Deal with it.

About the topic: I know nothing about Jesse Helms, but he sounds like an asshole and I have no interest in finding out who he was. Good riddens.

I have nothing much to say on the subject other than I'm glad Jesse Helms is burning in Hell now. I can't wait until Robert Byrd goes down with him.

So it's correct because you say so. Swell. I guess you win then.  Are there any people on these boards who would like to converse based upon facts and not presumptuousness?
