Johnson Aziga, 55, an African migrant living with HIV, is a now officially a “dangerous offender” according to Canadian criminal law.
Mr Aziga is already considered a “murderer” two times over. He was convicted in 2009 of two counts of first-degree murder, ten counts of aggravated sexual assault and one count of attempted aggravated sexual assault, because he had unprotected sex with eleven women without telling them he had HIV. Seven of the women subsequently tested HIV-positive, and two died of AIDS-related cancers within a couple of years of having had sex with Mr Aziga.

I am the only person that sees this as absurd – as both racist and HIV-phobic?
Mr Aziga and Mr Williams are being punished twice over. The idea that society is protected from HIV by keeping them in prison indefinitely is erroneous and outrageous. In the past men used to “lock up their daughters” when a man of purported huge sexual prowess came sniffing around, as if their female offspring did not have a sexuality or a choice in whether or not to have sex with their suitor.
Now, society locks up “HIV monsters” because it thinks female members of society need protecting from them, as if they did not have a sexuality or a choice in whether or not to have sex with their suitor.

They did not have the choice „Do I want to contract HIV or not?“ because he didn‘t tell them he had it. Also, if you think about how most people would answer that question, you now can have a guess on why he didn‘t tell them...
Geez! The OP and the guy they’re yammering about definitely has issues with women.
Mr. Aziga is either in denial about being infected or he’s a serial killer who hates women. I’m glad the latter guy’s in The Can. Hopefully not all the infected women are so far gone that they can’t stay well and healthy with medication.
For the two women who died. I pray they’ll be at peace.
Wear a rubber and / or don’t have penetrative sex.
I think it’s actually manslaughter here, to infect someone with HIV, but still certainly a crime. He’s where he belongs, like a modern version of Typhoid Mary.

I guess we can call him “AIDS Johnny”.
As awful as Typhoid Mary was, at least she was actually more sympathetic if you read the actual story. She was Irish immigrant in a 19th-Early 20th Century America that hated the Irish. She was a “carrier” of Typhoid and genuinely didn’t believe she had it. She saw the whole thing as being a framed as a scapegoat due to her being an Irish immigrant woman…

…No one ever bothered to explain to her what being a “carrier” was and she didn’t help matters by being an overly aggressive woman who was overly-suspicious and those trying to stop her were as much about being anti-Irish as much as they were about public health & safety.
A similar mess happened with The Chicago Fire. Poor Ms. O’Leary and her cow were framed because she was Irish. No one truly knows the true cause of the fire and it may have even been a bit of embers from the Peshtigo Fire hundreds of miles away in Wisconsin (which was far worse and more deadly than the Chicago Fire but the Chicago Fire was the one that got press because it’s Chicago)…

…It was an extremely dry and hot Summer that year.
Confused?
