This is the only remarks I am making about Fauntroy's remarks. They don't deserve attention. Gee, Fauntroy is spewing venom---------when will we ever get back to the pre-Obama days when race was a non-issue in this great nation-------. Fauntroy' expresses distain for the billboards which I haven't seen-----Mr. Fauntroy needs to face the facts. Living in the D.C. environs for a number of years, I have witnessed a city go from a non-Aids city to one of the highest in the number of people infected with Aids. It is a fact that black women in D.C. are at risk for Aids------if the billboards help to bring some common sense to the questions surrounding sex and not-sex the billboards will have done a sevice. No. 1: Check the statistics----Washington D.C. has one of the highest rates of AIDS in the USA. No.2: Men in D.C. who have sex with Aids infected partners pass it to their wives and ultimately to the children via this unstoppable virus No.3: Black women in D.C. are particularly at risk------as are their children. No.4: Any woman, black or white seeing those billboards should go home and make their husband get an Aids test. If not married make their boyfriend, lover get an Aids test-----and get an Aids test themselves. With that information, she can make an informed decision about the status of the relationship;how to protect herself and her children and future children. No. 5: Often the truth is painful, it hurts-----Fauntroy is being sensational and bombastic with his remarks in order to discredit people of all races who identify with an American grassroots movement popularly called The Tea Party. No. 6: As a woman I only wish that bill boards educating women had gone up in the 1990's warning women in D.C. of the scourge of AIDS and throughout the country. "The coalition says a growing billboard campaign targeting black women sparked outrage among the African-American leaders for claiming that black children are an "endangered species" because of high rates of unintended pregnancies, teen births, HIV-AIDS infections and abortions. abcnews.go.com
