"Pat Robertson delved into a discussion about AIDS during a recent episode of "The 700 Club," in which he suggested that infected individuals in cities like San Francisco purposefully infect others by cutting them with special rings."

He also talks about exorcising thrift store clothes so really this is par for the course.

I mean, there was that guy who went around stabbing women in the ass for no apparent reason. Some people will do some really sick and scary shit, so if I heard "Man with AIDs uses sharpened ring to infect victims", I would not be even slightly skeptical.

Oh brother... will they please just put him in a home already? One without microphones, cameras, podiums, or public access in any form.
Always amazes me how people that spout off crazy nonsense manage to somehow end up leaders of people.

Pat Robertson is going to get caught blowing some dude in a bathroom one day. People that talk like this are covering up something.

Pat Robertson is insane. I mean that completely and totally. Have you ever watched "The 700 Club"? It's one of those things you should get really really stoned and watch. I remember back in the day they used to have people speaking in tongues on there. Mindblowing. Originally Posted by lockedout

I'm fairly certain that was an episode of Law and Order: SVU. The stabbing women in the butt part, I mean. Although the AIDS one could possibly have been, too. Originally Posted by Kalyyn

Very misleading title, as I suspect most people won't bother reading the article, they're already on facebook saying "OMG Pat Robertson is telling people with aids to infect others!"
His quote:
"You know what they do in San Francisco? Some in the gay community there, they want to get people. So if they got the stuff they’ll have a ring, you shake hands and the ring’s got a little thing where you cut your finger,” he said. “Really. It’s that kind of vicious stuff, which would be the equivalent of murder.”
Don't get me wrong, he's a giant douchebag, but he's not advocating the spread of aids.Apply blizzards model to any other subscription service,you'd be outraged:
Netflix adds no new movies for a year, you click a new movie, there's a $5 fee.
You're in an accident, click your onstar button, but there's an addition $20 fee for them to help.
You turn on your tv only to find all you get are the infomercial channels. Every other show is pay per view.
See how dumb that model is?

Pat Robertson is completely bat-sh*t crazy. Any time he speaks to the media you can bet he's going to say something really, REALLY, dumb (if not totally insane). Originally Posted by lockedout

I swear this sounds like something Bachmann would say. Clearly Robertson should run for her seat in 2014.

Oh, I totally believe that. I'm saying it was also an episode of Law and Order. They often pull the ideas for their episodes from true events. Originally Posted by Kalyyn

Believe it or not, it is actually something people do. It's not common by any stretch but there is a segment of the population who purposely spread the disease.

Okay I misread the OP. I thought Pat Robertson was actually saying that gays should wear rings to infect each other, rather than saying that gays purposely wear rings to infect each other.
I mean both statements are insane, but my original interpretation is a bit over the top, even for Pat Robertson.Putin khuliyo

I could spin this and say Pat Robertson has caused more damage than people who have been sentenced to death Originally Posted by Aeluron Lightsong
