France Fights AIDS
AIDS in France is increasing. It seems the last year's AIDS Prevention Program, featuring Superman and Wonderwoman, was not so very effective.
No wonder this campaign was not effective, my first thought when I saw these... "hey - they look French!" My second thought was... "hey - how did they get Michael Jackson into that Wonder Woman costume?"
All jokes aside, these are desperate times and in response, France has launched a new AIDS prevention program. But first... the requisite poof-boy quote:
"A vicious terrorist is out there. It is not Osama bin Laden, it is AIDS. The biggest threat to our livelihood, our happiness is AIDS." - so says Richard Gere.
Well, all I can say to poof-boy is that people volunteer for AIDS every day with inappropriate sexual behavior. Its a far cry from bomb belts and flying airplanes into buildings. But... I digress. Enough about poof-boy and back to France... As I said, France has launched a new AIDS Prevention Program and I hope you're ready for the visual. We're not talking gerbils here:
These posters have appeared all over the streets of France. As if we needed another reason to avoid France and French people.
I cross-posted this over at Vince Aut Morire. I hope he forgives me.

You put stuff like this in a horror movie, you could forget about an R rating. Don't they wonder what effect imagery like this has on little kids?

I've heard of getting crabs, but scorpions?
