"The government invented aids to kill black people" was a statement that Rev. Wright made a while back. This was the first time I ever heard about this conspiracy (I will post in conspiracy theories too). Apparently, after some google searches, many think this as well.
So I won't repeat it again but this is rather interesting. Ok, for shits and giggles, I'll go with that we did in fact invent it to use as a weapon. We created something that doesn't kill you for years so after the war is over we start killing our enemy. This makes no sense! This would allow our enemies to still attack and possibly wipe us out before anything happens. It's like the drop grenade option in COD. You killed me but I'll get you after.
Back to Rev. Wright's asanine comment. It was invented to kill black people. If that's true why is it that it is more abundant in Africa. Why would we start it there? And honestly, even if (that's a huge IF, like if I were also George Clooney) that were the case, why would we do it in a manner that would also kill white people? And do you honestly think African Americans in office would allow it? That would also mean they have a cure. If they had a cure it would have been leaked by now.
I mean come on, it's apparent our administration can't keep anything classified.
So I still give this statement a "dumbest statement of 2008"
