Vulcans ... the self-appointed guardians of the universe, who take emerging races under their wing, when they deem them worthy of patronage. As a participant in their Interspecies Medical Exchange, I had always viewed them as somewhat arrogant, yet wise in their guardianship.
Today, however, I saw another side to them ... judgmental and bigoted toward their own people.
To purposefully withhold medical treatment, simply because they do not support the 'lifestyle' of the afflicted, is barbaric. Especially when the offending behavior is genetic. I can only hope that more people like Yuris speak out, thereby removing the stigma from them all.
