    Default Weekend commentary - AIDS activists actually delaying/stopping drug research

    At some point, HIV/AIDS extremists should be made to take a step back and see what their highly vocal efforts have actually accomplished.

    Why? They may be costing people their lives unnecessarily, but they feel good about themselves for having, "done something". There are a lot of people out there that measure their success, not by results, but by their motivation, now stop confusing the issue with facts.
