US lifts HIV/Aids immigration ban

The US has lifted a 22-year immigration ban which has stopped anyone with HIV/Aids from entering the country.
President Obama said the ban was not compatible with US plans to be a leader in the fight against the disease.
The new rules come into force on Monday and the US plans to host a bi-annual global HIV/Aids summit for the first time in 2012.
The ban was imposed at the height of a global panic about the disease at the end of the 1980s.

Why should we let these infected people into our country?

Many will have their disease progress while living here.

Then the American tax payer will be forced to foot the bill for their treatment.

Those seeking to live here will still have to provide evidence to the INS that they will not become a public charge.

 

[Yukon]

Your country the USA is infested with AIDS/HIV carriers. Why not let more in ?

 

[California Girl]

As long as the taxpayer ain't payin', they are welcome.

 

[Yukon]

The tax payer will pay. You are getting Universal Health care and AIDS/HIV suffering homosexuals who come to your country will be covered.

Fat chance that will work out.

We currently have millions of both legal and illegal immigrants getting FREE health care at the taxpayers expense.

When thousands of these people get sicker as their disease progresses. You know they won't be thrown out of he country. The homo lobby will fight for their right to stay and recieve FREE care.

The American taxpayer will be forced to foot the bill.

Spoken like a true patriotic Conservative American - compassionate, generous, forgiving, accepting, etc. etc. etc........

Do we make sure that people coming into our country are not infected with Hepatitis B or C?

Do we screen people for cancer when they enter?

Those people who contracted HIV/AIDS from transfusions or innocent contact. I would let in the country.

But fudge packers would be banned because the infection was self inflected.

..............now that is quite a feat, so like when someone tells you to "go f*** yourself " you don't take it literally?.

There's not a person on this board to whom you needed to explain that distinction, Sunni. We all knew what your issue was. Morality not medicine.

Goody, drop provisions against the butt flu, whats next TB?

Beats me. I don't have an agenda.

 

[Yukon]

The Conservative agenda is frightening.

Then you also feel that smokers with lung cancer should be kept out of the country.

 

[Sunni Man]

HIV/AIDS is the only PC disease.

Homos who contract the disease are viewed as martyrs by the gay community.

They are seen as Hero's in the fight against the Right/Republicans/Homophobes.

That these fallen Sodomite Soldiers have sacrificed their lives to further the Homo Agenda.

That is totally insane for Obama to do. We got enough illness in this country, without adding more to this country, besides why should the American Tax payers have to pay for an outsiders disease?. And in the military?HUH!!!! That would wipe out half our troops alone , besides being shot at, and road side bombs,HIV/AIDS is already spreading through out this country, fast like, so why add more fuel to the fire, from outsiders? I agree with you Sunni Man, 100%
