"New York City leads the nation in HIV cases. In 2005, 1,400 city inhabitants died of AIDS, the third-leading killer for residents under 65, behind only cancer and heart disease."
Yet Cardinal Egan and his ilk know what's best for us. Granted I don't have any use for organized religion, but I'm honestly wondering how this type of stuff is even remotely defensible? (Thanks ddd)
Man that picture of Hillary is scary.
This may come off the wrong way, but 1400 people dying of AIDS in NYC in a year, seems pretty low.

I would have expected the figure to be higher as well.

Re: Subway-themed condoms
Insert obvious joke about "running the train" here.

"Edward Cardinal Egan and Brooklyn Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio yesterday declared a holy war declared a holy war..."
Gotta love the Post.

"Our political leaders fail to protect the moral tone of our community when they encourage inappropriate sexual activity by blanketing our neighborhoods with condoms"
you cant give a kid rubbers in the Catholic church, but your local priest can fuck them up the ass (bareback, of course).

BH, God's servants on this Earth could never give a pre-teen HIV because God sent HIV to smite the heathens, not his own flock.
You clearly didn't read your cathecism.

And another thing, the real issue here is why is the City handing out LifeStyles condoms? Those things are fuckin' worthless.
Those things were responsible for more false alarms in my youth than I care to recall.

Hey coz, it wasn't a false alarm - you're gay. Just because a cheap rubber kept shit off your dick doesn't mean you weren't fucking a dude in the turd pipe.

She told me that was normal discarge, Bobby. Should I have been more skeptical?

Egan's an A-hole and a hypocrite. This is the same guy that played the shell game with pedophile priests when he was Bishop of the Diocese of Bridgeport. WTF, at least make them leave the priesthood. (Link.)
