Insulting, accusatory, defensive and long winded statements really won't do much for your campaing for safer sex. It's difficult to respond to you as you really come out swinging and well, just plain rude.
Compassion, kindess and understanding go a lot further. We're only human which makes us imprefect and some gay guys truly do struggle with negotiating safer sex. This doesn't make them idiots, dumb fucks, or whatever else you are describing them as, they're just regular guys struggling with the same issue's we all do. Just because you are kind to someone, or sensitive, doesn't mean one condones the others behavior. It's just that if we take your distancing approach, well, we won't have many guys willing to listen, or more importantly, talk about their behavior and why they do it. Information is power and you can't put the expectations out there without getting the information first as to why this problem exists. Try not to be so pathological and take a more systemic approach, you may be suprised at how your views may be the same in principal, but different in the way you want to pursue your message.
Lastly, walking gays through an AIDS ward will do nothing.
Scare tactics are very provincial and useless.
