GOP lawmaker: Virtually impossible to get AIDS through heterosexual sex - Polidicks

[quote] Tennessee state Sen. Stacey Campfield (R) falsely claimed on Thursday that it was nearly impossible for someone to contract AIDS through heterosexual contact. “Most people realize that AIDS came from the homosexual community,” he [URL="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/26/stacey-campfield-tennessee-senator-dont-say-gay-bill_n_1233697.html"]told Michelangelo Signorile[/URL], who hosts a radio program on SiriusXM OutQ. “It was one guy screwing a monkey, if I recall correctly, and then having sex with men. It was an airline pilot, if I recall.” “My understanding is that it is virtually — not completely, but virtually — impossible to contract AIDS through heterosexual sex.” It is generally accepted that at some point HIV [URL="http://www.avert.org/origin-aids-hiv.htm"]crossed species[/URL] from chimps to humans, but there is no evidence that this was caused by bestiality. Rick Sowadsky of the Nevada State Health Division AIDS program [URL="http://www.thebody.com/Forums/AIDS/SafeSex/Q8781.html"]noted[/URL] in 1998 that it highly unlikely that HIV was transmitted through inter-species sexual contact, given the behavior of chimps and the differences between the sexual anatomy of humans and other primates. According to the the [URL="http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/topics/surveillance/basic.htm#exposure"]Center for Disease Control[/URL], male-to-male sexual contact has been the most common way to transmit AIDS, followed by injection drug use and heterosexual sex. Campfield briefly gained national attention in 2011 when he introduced legislation that critics derided as “the don’t say gay bill.” “[Homosexuals] do not naturally reproduce,” he told Signorile. “It has not been proven that it is nature. It happens in nature, but so does beastiality. That does not make it right or something we should be teaching in school.”[/quote] [url]http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/01/26/gop-lawmaker-virtually-impossible-to-get-aids-through-heterosexual-sex/[/url]

How can any one person be that stu- [quote][B]Tennessee[/B] state Sen. Stacey Campfield [B](R) [/B][/quote] Oh. Still, how do these people even get elected?

Stacey Campfield loves banging "heterosexual" men.

[QUOTE=Aredbomb;34417479]The fuck does that even mean?[/QUOTE] Welcome to american politics.

What a fuckin' ponce.

It isn't impossible, but the risk (Even with unprotected sex) is around 1 in 3 of contracting HIV from an HIV positive person. But of course; if you do get it you're screwed for life. So I'd hardly call it "virtually impossible"

[QUOTE]It has not been proven that it is nature. It happens in nature, but so does beastiality. [/QUOTE] huh

What.

What is even the purpose of this? Is he not-so-subtly attempting to knock gays with vague and contradicting phrasing using incorrect assumptions (that getting AIDS is magically more likely to occur in gay sex)?

[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;34417544]"Virtually" as in her own little fantasy world? [editline]27th January 2012[/editline] What is this shit.[/QUOTE] [B]His[/B] name is Stacey. It's a dude.

“[Homosexuals] do not naturally reproduce,” as opposed to un-naturally reproducing?

Why don't reporters just flat out challenge complete lies like this? It seems people can get away by saying "their understanding of science is [complete bullshit x]" and no one thinks to ask, "Oh. What evidence drove you to such groundbreaking conclusions in your personal lab?"

Neither the children or the people running this place have proper sexual education. It's sad.

AIDs from screwing a monkey? Really? If you're going to make statements like this, get your facts [I]straight[/I]

[QUOTE=Rents;34417618]I think she actually believes what she's saying, and her idiocy is endangering the people she's supposed to be representing.[/QUOTE] It's a man, Stacey is a man.

Isn't there a fairly low chance of transmission from female to male? Maybe he's referring to this. Obviously male to female will be the same as male to male. EDIT Oh it seems anal intercourse has a higher chance of infection.

[QUOTE=Cl0cK;34417709]It's a man, Stacey is a man.[/QUOTE] Still an idiot, although a homophobic guy with an effeminate name is always amusing.

Ignorance is bliss clearly a high school drop-out

I would type a snide response but I'm too busy laughing uncontrollably at the sheer retardism and bigotry on display here.

[QUOTE]it is virtually — not completely, but virtually[/QUOTE] I like how he's so obviously trying to make it sound more believable, like a kid cheating and giving himself a B+ on a test instead of an A.

Is this related at all to that guy who was saying HIV doesn't cause AIDS a little while ago?

And these people run our country, disgusting

I don't even know anymore.

[quote]“It was one guy screwing a monkey, if I recall correctly, and then having sex with men. It was an airline pilot, if I recall.”[/quote] I like how he went right down into the specific occupation of this guy, who didn't exist, who was involved in an event that probably never happened. That's a pretty big commitment to complete horse shit right there. Actually, it almost sounds as if he based that part off of an urban legend or something.

Maybe Stacey is bullying gays now as a result of being bullied for his name in his younger days.

So this is the type of person that are making your legislations

Not only is she making up an event, but he's mixing up said made up event with the tale of [I]Mr. fucking Hands[/I], the horse-fucking Boeing engineer who died of ruptured bowels.
