A television advertisement screened in Australia around 1987 to alert people to the dangers of AIDS. This advert has generated considerable controversy since, as the "grim reapers" in the ads - which were meant to symbolise HIV, were taken to symbolise gay men.

I had a car accident in 2002. I was 3 weenk in hospital. The doctors said I rode the edge of death. I remember having a dream where I was playing chest against I don't remeber what it was but my life was at stake during that game. I guess I won the match cause I'm still alive

There is no regard at all to the drug users and gays in this advertisement. I live in Quebec, we would'nt see such things on tv!!!!

Yeah it was, but then gays started carrying it, then the government said "its ok, its only gays and minorities." then everybody else started to get it,such as the upper class, thats when the government(s) started going like "we have to do something."
