Unreal.
So they they do this, but they make people wear condoms in porn?
There is a reason that it was a felony, and it was because of the AIDS ‘scare’- because AIDS was scary. What other STD kills you in a couple of years with no treatment- and has no cure? Syphilis can be treated. Hepatitis comes close, so let’s up the penalty for that.
That’s covered in the link. Because intentional hepatitis transmission is a misdemeanor, AIDS should be too - say the loony left.
It is literally the equivalent of if stabbing someone was a misdemeanor and shooting someone was a felony, making shooting someone a misdemeanor to level it out.
What the absolute eff…
If I wasn’t going to Cali before, sure as hell aint now.
Ridiculous. They already have AIDs revenge transmissions already with it being a felony. The people contracting it suffer sever mental disorders as a backlash of having it. Not all, infact it is a small percentage, but when we are talking about deadly diseases, it’s no laughing matter.
People claim it’s not okay to judge someone because of HIV/AIDs. I agree, but they’re still responsible for maintaining and not promoting the disease. Everyone should wear condoms unless you want a child, but giving it to someone on purpose “just because” screw that. Lock emup and throw away the key for murder.
Sounds like we should up the penalty for intentional hepatitis to me then
Speaking of cali, what do you guys think of [b]THIS[/b] one? Feel free to make this it’s own thread.
NYH1.
What the fu…
For real? 1 in 400 and they would allow 90 percent or more, if they qualify?
Nuts…
Isn’t that something?
NYH1.
Important footnote - HIV is less deadly than it was 25 years ago, and some of the other STDs are much harder to treat now than they used to be. We could be heading to a point where HIV is not the scariest STD.
That doesn’t excuse anything. It seems reasonable that intentionally infecting someone else with any serious disease should be a felony. Need to define intent carefully, but if it’s an STD and you have it, having sex with a person without telling them is intent.
It’s amazing what the thought process is that goes on in the progressive brain.
6 months in jail for intentionally infecting someone with HIV either via sex or donating blood, but 1 year in jail for not using a senior citizens preferred pronoun.
Back on topic please, CA and HIV or near thereto. Off topic content removed.
California is a failed state and sad as it is to say, deserves what its elected representatives vote for. That sentiment doesn’t apply just to CA but we’ve been reminded to keep it on topic.

For those in California, in the immortal words of USCM Platoon Sergeant Apone “Don’t nobody touch nothin’”
HIV destroys your immune system. Without immune system you die. Yes there are drugs but drugs can be unobtainable for some people.
Trying to spin this as the same as diabetes is lame because diabetes reduces quakity of life and can kill you. I have seen enough people going through DKA to say “no thanks”.
I know there are certain segments of the population who want this to “not be a big deal” but, it is. It really is.
But the real reason is that housing HIV/AIDS patients is expensive and California is hemorrhaging money due to effete and corrupt leaderrship therefore catch amd release or suspended sentences make financial sense to to them.
It costs money to house, feed, clothe, and provide medical care for inmates.
Thats why it is called Day Care for Adults.
Your moral outrage, while justified, means absolutely nothing to elected officials moving money around.
You could always vote at em.
Too bad nobody quarantined this shit when the opportunity existed.
By failing to do so when it was still an option in the late 80s, they have condemned everyone who has contracted HIV ever since.
I’m still somewhat amazed that AIDS didn’t do far more damage than it has done.
I look at Ebola the same way. I’m amazed it hasn’t killed a large proportion of Africa. But in history, the vast majority of nasty fatal diseases are self-limiting. They either kill so fast that transmission is prevented, or they mutate into less deadly forms, so that the virus or bacteria continues to exist and reproduce. That’s what makes the 1918 “Spanish flu” and the medieval plague so terrifying - they were two big exceptions to this general rule.
I guess this is thread veer, but at least it’s not political.
Wow, just wow. A loss for words for such erroneous decisions.
You guys are surprised by this, seriously?
The LGBT agenda pushers have always sought to dial down the stigma with homosexuals and AIDS/HIV. This is a HUGE moral victory for them.
Mean while not only can you be given AIDS/HIV deliberately via the traditional route AND blood donations and it not be a felony but now you better get your gender pronouns down or else . . .
New California law allows jail time for using wrong gender pronoun, sponsor denies that would happen

We need a wall around California more than one along Mexico.
Probably because there is there is a prevention. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP) provides 92%–99% reduction in HIV risk for HIV-negative individuals who take the pills every day as directed. I know that I was ALWAYS on malaria prophylaxis and the success rate is less then PrEP. Education is the key and that is the problem… because there are some truly stupid people out there and WE are paying for it. (I am not calling you stupid 
)
I’ll try again. In my beautiful and evil state, the powers that be essentially equate the heinousness of possessing one over 10 rd magazine, with purposefully giving someone HIV. I’m amazed that God doesn’t burn the whole place to ashes.
