One version being the idea that AIDS was created in a laboratory by white scientists to exterminate blacks. I was just wondering if by missing the earlier thread I had missed the announcement that someone had actually developed a weapon that could selectively target members of a certain race.

From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans, white with foam� God bless America! My home, sweet home. -- Irving Berlin (1888-1989)
