There is something sad and ritualistic about this type of apology and pseudo-redemption, like the politicians caught in outside affairs who have to then scrupulously apologize while the wife stands stoicly beside him; choreographed insincere rituals where all the parties go through the motions and yet everyone secretly knows nothing really changes.

The person from Baltimore who wrote a response needs to understand that AIDS is not a gay disease. IT IS A BLOOD DISEASE that can happen to anyone. Being gay does not cause someone to contract AIDS. Having sex without a condom causes someone to contract AIDS. Also, I am already boycotting anyprgram that includes Tracy Morgan.

So Tracy Morgan said something stupid... So what?

Until the last decade, decade and a half, I really had to correct well-meaning "progressive" straights who were still in their evolution - to borrow a word from the president - on issues such as acceptance of persons with AIDS....and forget about gay marriage!

...So I take him at his word. Let's move on.

We need to take a deep breath and realize just how far we've come. And we need to hold our elected representatives' feet to the fire...

being poz for nearly 20 years, I have grown tired of all the whining about being victimized I read in these comments. Toughen up people! people say stupid shit all the time. We receive more social and economical support than any other group of people with a chronic illness.Maybe its time to be the hammer instead of the nail people

He said it and meant it. Now, he is talking really quick, trying to get in good with anyone who is willing to side with him. Teach him a lesson; boycot his stand up and television show. Sorry, Tina Fey. Comedians are a dime a dozen; get someone else for your show.
