Look, I'm not advocating his argument. I'm saying that when we can mitigate the harm from a risky behavior it makes it more likely that people will engage in the behavior - no more no less. You, for example, would be far more likely to jump out of an airplane with a parachute than without one. A cure for AIDs is a bit like a parachute  |
Well, it wouldn't happen. Thankfully.
I'm very skeptic of "CURE FOR HIV ALMOST FOUND" research anyways.
I'm very happy there are steps being made, but these "cures" are found at least once a year it seems.
