This is from 2008, when i started to come forward about my situation.

I posted this around Toronto, and mailed it to people inside of Toronto and across Canada.  At the bottom of this first letter I have left out a small section, before it included the address of where this took place the the telephone number of the management.

THIS IS WHAT SAINT JAMESTOWN THINKS OF MYSELF AND GAY MEN.  I HAVE HAD A YELLOW CAUTION TAPE TIED TO MY APARTMENT DOOR KNOB. THIS IS TO TELL PEOPLE IN BUILDING I AM HIV POSITIVE, AND NOT TO ENTER MY APARTMENT OR THEY WILL BE INFECTED WITH THE VIRUS.

To all Toronto,

    I have contacted ACTUP New York, ACTUP San Francisco for their opinion on the below concern.

    I am sending you this letter in regards to my concern of SARS Legislation. The reason for my interest, for the last year I have been called a disease carrying faggot by my neighbors, who really like the Morality Act in the USA. The Morality Act (Canadian equivalent – SARS legislation) discussing about the quarantine of people with contagious diseases, both the previous legislations have HIV mentioned in the documents.

    My neighbors agree that I should be quarantined or forcibly confined to my apt so I do not spread the virus. I have tried to get my story out in numerous ways, at all times with no prevail.

.

    I have been told by them that they will slit my throat while I sleep, or shoot me in the head. If do leave my apartment they will go after my friends, as well. I am lying in my apartment as they continue to harass me and ask how, I contracted HIV from and who I have slept with so they can make sure I do not spread the virus. They continue to threaten to call or contact my relatives to inform them of my HIV status and state that they will harass anyone that works with me or has contact with me. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since than the other ways they have threatened to kill me if i continue to contact police or bring attention to them have included.

"I want to stick you like the pig you are and watch you bleed out. That would make me happy"

"I will have you run over, by someone"

"We will have a hit put on your head"

"I will have you beaten up by one of our boyfriends"

"I want to throw acid in your face, so no one will ever want to look at you"

The insults yelled out include,

Kill all the AIDS BASTARDS.

You are an AIDS BASTARD.

AIDS face.

You are stating to look like on of those pot bellied AIDS Bastards.
