For every Matthew Shepherd, there are thousands of young gay men who will be on expensive and toxic anti-viral pills for the rest of their lives because they believed that "it's more loving and intimate and exciting without a condom" -- and they chose to believe this because OTHER GAY MEN told them it was so.
If Russia can figure it out with less suffering, and get it better than we did, then I hope they succeed. I would be the last person to claim that America has done everything right.
