Conservative Prof: Gays Should Pay More For Life Insurance

Posted by | September 2, 2014 23:31 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Top Stories


George Mason University Professor Walter Williams says gays, like smokers, ought to be charged more for life insurance because of their “life-shortening lifestyle choice.”

Williams also stated: “According to the International Journal of Epidemiology, life expectancy at age 20 for homosexual and bisexual men is eight to 20 years less than for all men. That’s a lifestyle shortening of life expectancy greater than obesity and tobacco use. Yet one never hears of insurance companies advertising lower premiums for heterosexual men.”

However, RawStory.com reports that the study by the International Journal of Epidemiology is “decades old” (Vancouver, Canada in the late 1980s and early 1990s) and Williams “did not mention HIV or AIDS influenced the findings.”

    If that’s the case, gun owners should be paying through the nose.

    “life expectancy at age 20 for homosexual and bisexual men is eight to 20 years less than for all men.”

    Might have something to do with all the straight people beating and murdering them, or driving them to suicide. Just sayin’.

      No, its because the lifestyle they chose is extremely dangerous. You are trying to make everyone believe that queers are victims….oh, they are…make believe crimes…fake crimes to justify a chosen perversion and tie up the courts for years. No one is killing them (they are doing that all by themselves); they are not being beaten unless you are counting the rest of the queer world is doing to each other which they will never admit to; and as for driving them to suicide, that is bullcrap and you know it. These people have mental health issues that you asshats will NEVER ever allow anyone to look at. You cause your own problems.
