This article is about a man in Oklahoma whose been arrested for soliciting sex from people without revealing his HIV + status. According to the Oklahoma State Health Department, he tested + back in 2007. Since then, he's made almost 700 solicitations for sex on Craig's List. Even if he only has a 1 in 10 success rate, that's 70 people.
Quotes in the article try to make this man out as a psychopath. (I just love it when non-psych people diagnose). It's possible this man is every bad thing that's ever been said about him, but that's irrelevant. Yes, I said it doesn't matter, it means nothing.
This man trolled for sex on Craig's List. These people answered those ads. They had unsafe sex with a stranger. They say he told them he was HIV -. So what? He lied, they didn't demand a condom & now they could very well be + themselves.
This man should not of done what he did, given. However, to place all the blame on him alone is BS. A lot of people made choices, seemingly most of them bad choices & now there are consequences to those actions. That's called life.
I am HIV +, because of my choices. Unless this man forced them to have sex, they are at least partly to blame for their possible/current HIV status. This man should be dealt with & prosecuted. But, playing the blame game won't help anyone.
Cya...
