I'm all for free speech, but...

I think this is one of the more curious protests I've seen...



So, okay, first and foremost, the places to cut the budget are NOT where it will take from those who need it the most. It's a liberal way of looking at things, yes, but also rational and humane, really. And cutting HIV services helps no one.

But. A die-in? Not to mention - Stop killing queers?

First of all, everyone gets HIV now. It's no longer "gay plague," or GRID (Gay-related immunodeficiency, which was the original bigoted name for AIDS). Pink people, brown people, men, women, gay, straight, transgendered - everybody gets HIV. It's moved up the ranks as an equal-opportunity disease.

Add that to the protesters who seem to be bleeding from holes in their bodies and this leads me to conclude from this video that the budget cuts in California have not, in fact, targeted HIV services but instead opened a hunting season on gay people.

My first question is, how did the Religious Right manage THAT? And two, that's just mean. So, yeah, stop that right now!

Seriously, people. Condoms are cheap. Wrap it up. You're not invincible. Stop having sex on drugs. Stop hooking up unprotected. Get tested. Get informed. Stop being stupid.

Stop killing everyone.

I'm just saying...
