Negroists — that would be people who think “black” first, instead of American first — have posited for years that the U.S. government created AIDS to kill blacks and keep them down.

(And it would be contrary to what Barack Obama’s “spiritual adviser” Reverend Jeremiah Wright has said.)
According to a new report “The AIDS virus has been circulating among people for about 100 years, decades longer than scientists had thought, a new study suggests… Genetic analysis pushes the estimated origin of HIV back to between 1884 and 1924, with a more focused estimate at 1908.”
The researchers also said that it isn’t a surprise to find HIV is that old.
Experts say it’s no surprise that HIV circulated in humans for about 70 years before being recognized. An infection usually takes years to produce obvious symptoms, a lag that can mask the role of the virus, and it would have infected relatively few Africans early in its spread, they said.
Once again, we find that the wild-eyed conspiracy theorists are fools, easily led, and not very bright.
