Bug Chasers - What has this world come to?

[Flock of Moosen]

This has got to be one of the most fucked up stories I have ever read.

The fact that there are even people on this Earth stupid enough to do this and think it's perfectly alright boggles the mind.

Bug Chasers
(Warning: This article is fairly long.)

Carlos is part of an intricate underground world that has sprouted, driven almost completely by the Internet, in which men who want to be infected with HIV get together with those who are willing to infect them. The men who want the virus are called \"bug chasers,\" and the men who freely give the virus to them are called \"gift givers.\"

So, all the gay guys are going around trying to obtain a (currently) incurable virus which-- since two guys fucking are incapable of reproducing-- will eventually wipe them all out?

Sorry, but I'm failing to see the downside of this.

Wow, I never thought of it that way. You make a good point.

Seriously though, this one quote really floored me when I read it.

Like most bug chasers, he has the impression that the virus just isn't such a big deal anymore: \"It's like living with diabetes. You take a few pills and get on with your life.\"

Does being gay make you a complete moron as well? :confused:

They're chasing man ass instead of lovely poontang.

I heard something about this bug chasing a while back and thought to myself, ok if these people wanna pretty much commit suicide slowly, fine. More air and food for me. But this makes me stop and think some more.

\"It's about freedom,\" he says. \"What else can happen to us after this? You can fuck whoever you want, fuck as much as you want, and nothing worse can happen to you. Nothing bad can happen after you get HIV.\"

Does this fucking genetic and mental defective realize what the fuck he is saying?? You can go out and fuck whoever you want?? And increase the chances you're going to infect someone who may or may not want the high five?? Being sexually liberated and holding no inhibitions is one thing, but wanting to possibly condemn someone to a miserable life spent taking pills or a slow painful demise?? And they wonder why there is so much hatred in certain places and homophobia towards them??

This is probably one of the top 5 disturbing things I have read or heard in my entire life. In fact, it's right up there with the gay cannibalism, except that story didn't have an interview to go with it, so I could still think of those weirdos in an abstract sense, but here's a guy,... right here in my own city, an attractive man no less,... who has... well, I mean, I can't even find the words to describe the horror that is what's going on in his head. Brainwashed ain't the half of it. Thousands of members on these sites? Heaven help us.

And this just makes me wanna puke and cry all at the same time:

Now Hitzel understands all too clearly what bug chasing can do to a young man's life, but it's too late for him. After six months of bug chasing, Hitzel succeeded in getting the virus. He's now a twenty-one-year-old freshman at a Midwestern university, so wholesome-looking you'd think he just walked out of a cornfield.

and....

San Francisco AIDS Foundation labeled the issue \"sensational\" and would not provide further comment.

... but like, not "sensational" in a good way, right?:confused:

We have to pay more for insurance because the fags feel like bleeding them dry by getting one of the most expensive to treat diseases ever.

In a way, they're fucking us in the ass too.





Not that I'm against evolution taking these people out.

Wait a second - wouldn't having HIV qualify you as getting dropped from your insurance carrier, in this day and age?

Let's face it. Getting HIV via a blood transfusion nowadays is extremely rare. You do and can have control over the situation if you're ever put into an exposure-type situation.

With the availability of information and condoms, if you get AIDS, it's becoming more and more your own fault.

I mean, my insurance carrier can drop me for driving too fast - why the hell can't they drop you for taking it in the ass from a haitian?

Ummm....Mr. Tenbat....Car insurance is completely separate from health insurance. Sometimes, they are even sold by different companies.

I KNOW THAT, I'm just saying - with how easily car insurnace companies can drop you, can't health care insurnace companies drop you too?
