These television anchors act like AIDS in the black community is something new. With calls for the government to do more in combating AIDS in America, it seems the White tax payer just can’t do enough to stop this behavioral epidemic. First there was outrage that not enough was being done to stop AIDS in Africa. Now we are criticized for doing too much in Africa and not enough here in America.

CNN makes every possible excuse for the disproportionate number of blacks who get AIDS. In the first video, CNN news anchor Elizabeth Cohen (who apparently thinks Ukraine is in Africa) blames the black AIDS rate on blacks “not having enough access to health care.” What may have slipped Elizabeth’s mind is that not only do blacks qualify for free healthcare (medicaid) at a disproportional rate, but that healthcare will do you no good after you acquire the disease. You see Mrs. Cohen, AIDS isn’t prevented by a Physician or a medication.

I have only been to the Doctor a handful of times in my life, and we have never talked about AIDS. But, somehow I still know that if I have unprotected sex with everything that walks I could get a disease. Maybe this is why blacks have the highest rate of every other STD as well. These people act like “awareness” is going to solve the problem. But, they have no idea that a genetic-influenced behavior is the real cause of these statistics. AIDS is a behavior-driven disease; if you take part in certain behaviors you are more likely to get the disease. Furthermore, as the last article details, genetic polymorphisms play a large role in an individual’s susceptibility to AIDS. But of course, we are supposed to believe that all races are the same, with no inherent differences between us - except for certain cases when it is beneficial to illicit funding, but not when it suggests intelligence or behavioral differences. You can’t have it both ways, genes either play a role in human behavior or they do not; it just happens that the evidence keeps pointing to the former.
