Guys! this is 2009. Hatefulness towards any one is just plain wrong. No one is better than anyone else and the people that acted this way were acting out of ignorance and fear. I bet not one of them did any research as to how the disease is spread.
As for all the name calling on this page it makes me sad. There's no need for it and it just keeps the hate ball rolling!

@ashley102497 he had hemophaelia (a blood clotting disorder) so as a young child he had a lot of blood transfusions. This was before the time of testing blood etc as HIV/Aids was still very new and not understood.

At 5:48 to bad Ryan wasn't enlightened to tell that news reporter when they still did a half ass job reporting news, not suggesting it that his disease was Government made back in 1963 to 1978 under what was called the "Virus Cancer Research Program." Yeah back then that would have been an unconceivable thought & a raw horrible truth but no doubt that would have stopped this epidemic of what it is now & locked up people like Henry Kissinger, Nixon, Dr. Robert Gallo. Roy Ash, & whoever else....
