How would you react to this?

He's having sex with someone he has only known for a short while, and he wasn't wearing a condom? Has he learnt nothing in twenty years? Sorry, but it's his own fault.

That's like telling a girl that has been raped that it was her own fault because of how she was dressed.
 
I wouldn't kill but i would do everything in my power to make the rest of her life a living nightmare until one of us is dead

No it isn't.
Take HIV out of this equation, he was humping someone he barely knows, and wasn't STD tested, he could have caught anything, therefore, it is his own fault.
As it is the fault of people catching and spreading other STDs, if everyone got treated, and everyone wore condoms for a while, such infections could be virtually obliterated.

Its good safe sex sence, he didn't follow it.

Why is it his fault and not her fault?

In this scenario, she had HIV, so you cant take HIV out of the equation.
 
It's 50/50 - she should have told him, he should have strapped up. End of.

Unless you're in a long term relationship, and know that both of you have been tested at your local GUM clinic or GP - don't take the chance. Why risk it?

The UK is growing at an alarming rate in terms of STI/STD infection... it's just for these sort of reasons.

Whilst it sounds like I'm preaching, we all (myself included) have been through stages in our lives where we've been a little reckless at some point I'm sure. I know I have - but fortunately got away with it. Don't take the chance. Get yourself checked regularly, and use a condom. It's really not an effort, and really not worth contracting something which may affect you for the rest of your life, or potentially kill you.

What? There's no comparison at all because neither was doing anything illegal in this case. Again: every sex education message for more than twenty years has said "wear a condom". As messages go, it's pretty simple. If you don't know where they've been, assume they've been somewhere nasty. Behave accordingly. But he ignores this eminently sensible advice. A better analogy would be that he stuck his fingers in a light socket, got burnt, and burnt the house down in retaliation.
