I think there is a problem with this

OK, so you spit in a police officer's face. That isn't cool, but what's even less cool is the fact that you've been sentenced to 35 years in jail for it. Because you're HIV+. If the jury that convicted you would check its facts, it would know that HIV is not spread through saliva. It is spread like this.

So....why then would a jury be allowed to convict someone under the guise that their saliva was used as a deadly weapon? Oh wait...this happened in Texas. Nevermind.
