Consequence of attacks on Planned Parenthood. HIV outbreak!

[thraashman]

Who else saw something like this coming?

The only public health facility in the county where locals could get tested for HIV was the Planned Parenthood center, so when that was forced to close due to major budget cuts, there was nowhere for people to turn. The cuts to funding began in 2011 due to a local political campaign to combat the free health care provider.

The defunding of Planned Parenthood by conservatives is having the effect we all knew it would and is causing health issues amongst low income individuals. When is the "pro life" crowd going to learn that they're failing their cause more than helping it? Then again, it's seemed more and more that "pro life" is actually "pro control".

I remember finding a statistic somewhere once that showed that the abortion rate of Planned Parenthood patients was lower than the abortion rate amongst the general populace. Which isn't surprising since free or reduced cost health advice would lead to better decisions prior to becoming pregnant.

Don't you have another troll thread to runaway from?

The conservatives think that hiv is a by product of the wrong life style. In their minds those people deserved it because they live immorally. So I doubt a increase in hiv is something they will worry about. They probably hope hiv becomes so big it pushed people back into single relationships only. Not that this would work.

It's not about being for life, it's about controlling sexual morality in women.

Oh so the issue isn't that they don't have a way to get tested? Because that's what the OP's quote made it sound like.

Here's a news flash: if you can't afford a $35 HIV test, keep your dick in your pants.

Next, you're going to be saying if you can't afford to raise a child, don't have sex! What kind of nonsense is that? Oh, I suppose I shouldn't buy stuff I can't afford on this 35% ARP credit card either, huh?

The world is very black and white to some people.

Since Planned Parenthood closed the clinics which don't provide abortion and kept the ones which did, it seems equally as obvious what their priorities are. If they can't provide abortion deathcare then they lose interest in providing non-abortion healthcare to their clients.

Grow the fuck up! This is about a health issue that affects both men and women (and kids for that matter).

Only affecting those who don't follow the bible and have sex out of wedlock. The religious right see HIV as gods plan.

You really are trying to check all the boxes of hateful and small-minded recently. Bigoted, check. Sexist, check. You really should consider giving your life over to Jesus, I've definitely heard it helps cure people of the hate you are so full of.

No. Its not. No one is denying anyone an HIV test.

Is an HIV outbreak a health issue or not? If you say it is, then THIS IS ABOUT A HEALTH ISSUE and you're wrong. If you say an HIV outbreak is not a health issue, THEN YOU'RE LYING and you're wrong. So which way would you prefer to be wrong on this specific issue? You're wrong on here daily ... hourly .... quarter-hourly, so this should be new to you.

So does brushing your teeth. Should I stand on the street corner chanting for free toothbrushes and dentifrice? Free floss! Free floss!! AND have someone scrub them FOR me!

At what point should we expect people to be self-reliant and make sensible choices? AND pay the price for stupid choices?

Go out and screw anything that moves ("sex-positive! Yay!") without protection, guess what? Unwanted pregnancies and STI's! Who could have ever predicted that outcome?!?! *gasp*

People like you are whining for someone to hold their hand all the way through life. And you tell ME to grow up?

Who should we mollycoddle next? Drunk drivers? (But only if they're soccer moms, right?)


...and if you're responsible for a child, how about not being so irresponsible as to run out and fuck strangers to get STI's, eh?
