Posted by on Mon, Dec 7, 2009 at 9:45 AM

Did you hear the one about the grandmother who went to the dentist?

In the early 1990's a homosexual dentist in Florida, David Acer, who had AIDS, told his lover Edward Parsons "When AIDS finally infects a young person and when it starts hitting grandmothers and people like that, then maybe the government will do something," according to Parsons.
Subsequently six of his patients came down with the DNA strain of AIDS he carried, at least 4 of whom died, including grandmother and a 13 year old girl.

Well that's all the proof that I need that all gay folks are crazy AIDS killers!

I kind of think this guy should spend 14 years being dragged behind a garbage truck.

Anyway, this may not have been the best "today in traditional marriage" subject.

What the hell? Did he honestly think that his wife wouldn't be pissed enough to turn his skanky ass in? As a wife, I would be furious and probably have killed him for doing something like that to me! He's lucky all she did was turn his dumb ass in.

People who intentionally infect others with HIV should be charged with attempted murder. There is no reason this crime shouldn't be a capital offense when things like this are considered.

@6 Yeah, I'm surprised he wasn't charged with that.

A. He's not actually a New Zealander - AIDS was discovered when he emigrated.
B. She tested negative four times in the year before he pricked her.
C. He was afraid to be alone.
D. Bet he'll have lots of sex in prison.
