NEW RULE

Magic Johnson is an example.

Langdon Perry: “Like Magic with his faked AIDS. Magic faked AIDS.”

Chris Baker: “You think Magic faked AIDS for sympathy?”

Langdon Perry: “I'm convinced that Magic faked AIDS.”

Chris Baker: “Me too.”

Magic Johnson: “We can't have people out here making false statements and putting out bad information, because this battle is too big when it comes to HIV and AIDS. I poured my life into it and a lot of other people have poured their life into it, into getting out the right information so people can protect themselves and know what HIV and AIDS is all about.”

On November 7, 1991, Johnson disclosed his AIDS. Prior to this disclosure, Johnson’s acts were asinine. Since this disclosure, Johnson has advocated education. He has funded research. He has illustrated the obvious. AIDS is not fatal. One cannot only survive. They can succeed.

Baker and Perry are pathetic, repugnant, and vile. They warrant termination. Why? They entrench stereotypes. They imperil progress. AIDS is not homosexual or scary. AIDS is not a plague or scourge. AIDS is endurable and treatable. Johnson made people realize this. Baker and Perry make people forget.
