This is is nothing more than a media conspiracy to get men to let down their guards and get comfortable with fingers up their asses. Don't fall for their games people. One way, exit only!!

I dare say that Many Jamaican Men are not going to
screened for these illnesses either because they love
that Myth that Marijuana Herb is all healing.
They will prefer to ignore the studies keep

out of ignorance and their habit.

It has nothing to do with marijana at the moment. Its about Jamaican men who are homophobic and won't get a prostate exam. There is nothing homosexual about it, it's just a doctor's exam. Why not fret and complain about when the doctor has to touch and feel men's testicles? Thats not homosexual?

I think Jamaican men are very ignorant.  They are the ones that should be linchen and hanged from a tree.  I hate them.  I hope all of them go to hell for bashing gay people.  Who in the hell do they think they are.  They are not God.  How could you have so much energy hating someone.
