Default another ridiculous argument for DADT

this one takes the cake (with extra icing):

"Gay" is not a metonym for HIV-positive. I wonder if they know.

oh, wait, they'd have to know what a metonym is...

Wow, what an over reaction! Using the blood donation center's over protective policy to justify their argument was a lesson in circular "logic".

Love the video! I just about peed myself laughing.

Using "the AIDS argument" as an excuse to gay-bash always was stupid, and these days is behind the times. The people most at risk these days are young straight people. Maybe some of you out there have come across news media reports about how casual unprotected sex is epidemic on post-secondary campuses.

Wanna know about another high-risk group? Seniors! I read a report a few months ago that said there's a lot of hooking up in retirement communities, and many seniors just think they have nothing to worry about. So now we're seeing a fair number of seniors contracting AIDS.
