continued: People like those you see in this video clip fought for the inclusion of women in clinical trials, for the definition of AIDS for women to be changed, for acceleration of new drug release, for clean needle exchange, for the end to discrimination toward people with AIDS, for an end to racism, homophobia, sexism, aids phobia, for the teaching of safer sex information, for women's healthcare issues, for prisoner healthcare rights. The list goes on and the struggle is far from over.

AIDS dead

continued: There were buses that brought the conventioneers to Houston. Some of the buses had signs on the sides that said "THANK GOD FOR AIDS"

continued: After being corraled into this dead end area, the Houston police came out of the bushes on horseback. They were waiting for the protesters. Many people were clubbed and hurt. One young man from Chicago stopped breathing after being clubbed. He was revived and taken to a local hospital emergency room where he was refused treatment because they feared he might be HIV positive. Helicopters overhead gave a warning to the police not to club the protesters when the lights were on them.

continued: What you may not know about the people in the video, is that they marched and were funneled into a dead end area outside the Astrodome. The Republican convention was going on inside.

continued: I love this little video of the "March on the Astrodome" It shows a diverse group of people speaking up and fighting back against the governments indifference to AIDS. Most of the protester were from nationwide ACTUP (The AIDS COALITION TO UNLEASH POWER) and QUEER NATION groups. The WOMENS ACTION COALITION (WAC) and many other groups and individuals participated.

continued: Bill Clinton did nothing to help people with AIDS or the spread of AIDS. George W. Bush has been a terrible waste of time and lives. We need a cure. We need a "not for profit" approach to finding a cure. Fighting sexism and homophobia and racism are part of finding a cure. All are unfortunately linked to the disease.

Gee, why don't you two quit pulling each others hair.
We all know that the American government did nothing to stop the AIDS pandemic. Early intervention could have saved millions of lives. That's why Ronald Regan and George Bush senior are hated by so many.

ronald.r. and g.bush are the ones responsible for doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FOR PEOPLE DYING OF AIDS IN THE 80's-90's- it took the devil ronald r. YEARS TO EVEN SAY THE WORD "AIDS" IN PUBLIC. but, he would say; " if they want to live in sin, let them die in sin" How fucking christian is that? we would have less cases and drugs sooner IF THE GOP FUCKHEADS HAD USED THEIR BRAINS!
IT ALL ABOUT "GREED" I HOPE RONALD R. DIED SUFFERING LIKE HE MADE SO MANY OTHERS. yr next g. bush. QP*

Being gay is perfectly acceptable and normal. Comparing barebacking in the gay community to straight kids is ludicrous. We both know that. No, i don't have unprotected sex. And who I choose to fuck is none of your business...

Doing nothing about AIDS? How about all the guys out there still barebacking? The 'battle' is bullshit. People are getting HIV because they're engaging in irresponsible behaviour. Talk about 'using their brains'...

but if your str8, barebacking for a kid is ok? (just a different hole) I THINK NOT!! ALL YOU STR8 FUCKS ARE ALL FULL OF SHIT. just cause you think it's not normal to be queer?? what do you know about B.B.?? do you bareback?? are you gay?? or a breeder? or just a stupid one stuck in the snow. what are you doing to help with Aids?? waiting tp!

The'stuck inthe snow' comment is funny as well. You're slamming a country that is civilized enough to embrace gay marriage. So much for your 'land of the free' Even Dems won't support gay marriage, but the gay community votes for them like sheep...
