Americans For Truth leader Peter LaBarbera joined Matt Barber in demonizing gay folk for "spreading" disease.

wait… i'm confused. Staph Infection isn't actually "sexually transmitted". an open Staph Infection is highly contagious (as seen with several reports around high schools in the Austin area).
