Ok, so I haven't done much posting but I definitely like to post when I see fucking stupid things in life.
I got an IM last night from a friend regarding a website called AIDSMAPPER. Yeah, you read it right; AIDSmapper. This website is designed to help you spot registered people with hiv/aids in your neighborhood and such. Sick if you ask me. Well come to find out is run by the above stated ministries.....anyone know where that church is so we can vandalize that shit?!
Ok, so I checked the website out and was reading this bullshit and here's what it says. Now I'm in no way disclosing anything about myself or friends but I was definitely curious as to what these people had to say.
Quoted from site:
How You Can Spot Someone With AIDS:
If you can’t afford a membership, and you don’t qualify for an organizational discount, you might still be able to spot Infected just by looking at them. Don’t be too hasty to judge, though: After all, you’re not a lab technician specializing in infectious blood diseases, so why not use your intuition instead?You may not know much, but I bet you can figure something out. Put that uneducated ad hoc figuring to good use with an easy to browse three-minute suggestion page.
LOOK FOR PRIDE:
The Infected should be ashamed and dismayed, but part of their disease is often an exuberant sense of pride. It’s not a black and white issue, but one that comes in every color of the spectrum. Look for flags and bumper stickers that actually carry a rainbow. It seems almost too obvious, but the infection can go straight to their brain and affect their judgment, leading to such nonsense as not admitting their infection, wearing leather chaps on hot days, growing absurd mustaches and favoring those of the same gender.
LOOK FOR NEEDLE MARKS:
Many of the Infected may have visible needle marks on their arms, legs, face or eyeball sockets. It may sound disgusting, but it’s true. When in doubt, take a close look. The area will appear bruised and have a raised, rough texture when touched. It will not have a particular smell, but you can be certain if the area of infection tastes like coppery bread crust.
LOOK FOR SIGNS OF SICKNESS:
The first sign of the AIDS appears identical to a common cold. If you have seen anyone with common cold symptoms in the past few years, it is very likely that they have the AIDS, according to doctors. Even if some of them don’t, you just can’t be certain, so keep your distance. If you have had “cold symptoms” yourself in the past few years, you should get tested immediately. But be careful because they will draw blood, and blood is where this disease lives. Also in the sex organs, which includes the mouth and rectum “in some circles.”
Yeah, if you read this .....or are reading it now, feel free to comment. LOL
As much as I was pissed just from the ideas of these people I got an email from my friend beforehand which I didn't realize about the site:
A religious-oriented website, claims to be tracking Americans living with HIV/AIDS nationwide, by zip code and by name. The troublesome website is being hosted by Circle Church Ministries from The Republic of Nauru. It is either hateful development of discrimination , or nothing more than a very bad hoax.
The website, in part, reads: "No longer is it sufficient to ask how many partners your lover has had, or if he went through a so-called “experimental phase” with the same sex. In today's disease filled world, you need to know in no uncertain terms if your partner is one of “the Infected,” and by that we mean AIDS. Previously, it was not only impossible, but largely illegal to know if your friends, family, neighbors, or heaven forbid, your fiancĂ© was a member of the infected class, and it’s no laughing matter."
It encourages visitors to "report" others they "suspect" of living with HIV/AIDS regardless of their proof - saying that "even bad information can be helpful."
But advocates and legal experts argue that by doing so it would violate several privacy laws, including the Privacy Act and Health Insurance Protection & Portability Act (HIPPA). Several organizations have spearheaded an effort to research the website to see whether it is legitimate, and if so, legal.
