Also, last I checked, being black or Hispanic >wasn't a matter of choice. Last time I checked, Aids had a higher incidence among blacks and hispanics than among whites. So I guess it *is* their fault, eh?

I guess you can prove anything with statistics if your only purpose is to be a bigoted, hate-mongering crytofacist hunk of rancid whale-bubber, nu? And last time I checked, sexual orientation was not a matter of choice.
