ignorance is dangerous

Pay close attention to this not only for HIV folks but for HCV folks too!
These two diseases are very similar except for the STD aspect.
This is outrageous.

Oh sweet Jesus, this is ludicrous...I'm speechless.

Holy shit....................this will never fly!!!!!!!!!!! Please tell me these people aren't that stupid????????????????

OMG, I just moved back to Kansas too. This is shocking.
Thanks for positing.

Didn't we already go through this in the 80's?

This makes me so sad. Fear trumps facts again.

Quarantine them where? On an island? Seems as if they need to study some maps. Maybe they don't know that they're landlocked??

ANYWAY this is what happens when people don't read books.

And burn them instead E!!! What a bunch of SCUMBAGS!!!

I'm with you on that Hootie Toot!

We all need to contact the Obama administration, The Justice department/Attorney General's office and everywhere else that need to be informed of this and how we truly feel about this injustice!!!

We also need to convince the mostly good citizens of Kansas that they will be harshly judged and profound retribution will occur if they let there legislators get away with this mean spirited act of ignorance while educating them with the truth regarding both HIV & HCV!!!

We also need to demand our own representatives that we will no longer support them for re-election if they don't really try to convince the state of Kansas that harsh economic sanctions against their state will happen if they continue to pass and implement this poor excuse for law!!!

We can all do this if we really believe that together, our voices are powerful enough to convince any politician that if they try to hurt us then we'll hit them back so hard where it really hurts by stopping anymore future business with them and to end any current business as well!!! We need to let these airheads know not to phuck with us... Convince them that it would not be in their best interest to continue with this primitive way of thinking or their acting upon this!!!

How do we do this???
1.)getting petitions together with as many VIP's as possible to sponsor them...

2.)Contact our local, state and federal representatives how strongly we feel about this and how we're willing to boycott Kansas if they do implement this pile of bovine excrement!!!

3.) Contact local state and national as well as international media groups to let them know how far we're willing to go in stopping them from implementing this ludicrist ideology!!!

4.) Emphasize to everyone including all of our politicians that we'll threaten to end supporting and voting fr them if they let this ugliness continue and not only that... We'll organize to implement a boycott of doing any type of business or tourism with Kansas!!!

5.) Solicit as many athletes and athletic organizations like MLB,NFL, NCAA, etc. to boycott Kansas also and any other do the same with any other important organization with strong economic clout and convince them that they should boycott Kansas also!

There's a whole lot more we can do and yet, if we only think about what should be done to fight this injustice as opposed to taking action and truly implement a grassroots effort to convince Kansas and it's Governor NOT to implement this phucked up, WRONG and discriminatory legislation then all we'll be doing blowing smoke out of our collective asses!!!

So I don't know about you but, the air is already stinking from all of the bovine excrement this proposed law has dumped and I'm going to try my best to keep Kansas from avoiding to clean up this mess of theirs...

And to educate & convince as many ignorant people as possible who have a stake in the economic prosperity of the state of Kansas that they must not go forward with this cruel, unjust ideological law by protesting to their representatives to STOP implementing this form of EVIL!!!

I'm all ears for idea's and help in starting this grassroots effort!!!
Please help me out.

Respectfully,
Henry

It wasn't too long ago that I got a letter from...I think it was from my County, like a health board or something like that...saying that they had been notified that I had tested positive for HCV, as is required by law.
It was exceptionally well-written for some bureaucratic letter, and the tone was very carefully crafted to sound helpful and positive.
It was full of very good tips and important info that anyone newly-diagnosed would want...
But man, it still felt creepy getting it. Like they've got me on file to be rounded up sometime...
I thought I was being paranoid, but now there's this.

Personally why I think this is totally mad and inhumane, I will not be getting worked up over it. As I read it there is possibility that HIV will be excluded so they would be looking more at diseases that are more airborne such as tuberculosis.

Regardless of what their reasoning I see so many different levels this could be overturned as constitutional or civil
Rights. A person would have lawyers lining up.

Remember it still has to be signed onto law by the governor.

Don't sweat the small stuff
