Dems Push to Criminalize Treatment of Psychosexual Illnesses

The slippery slope couldn’t get much steeper. First, we were told to tolerate sickness. Soon, we will be forbidden by federal law to treat it:

Democratic lawmakers reintroduced a bill on Tuesday that would ban conversion therapy nationwide, a controversial practice that seeks to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. The practice is currently banned in six states and in the District of Columbia.

The Therapeutic Fraud Prevention Act, filed by Senators Patty Murray of Washington and Corey Booker of New Jersey, constitutes a renewed effort from Congressional Democrats to ban conversion therapy after a Republican majority let the bill die without a hearing last year.

In a released statement, Sen. Murray cited fresh fears under the Trump administration as a reason for reintroducing the legislation.

The appeal to Trump hysteria is as phony as pretending that a bill explicitly intended to promote disease has anything to do with fighting fraud. Trump, who proclaimed during the campaign that Bruce Jenner was welcome to use the ladies’ room at Trump Tower, has pandered to gays.

Definition must be made between "disease" and "choice". One might be curable with medical treatment, the other is correctable by a decision on the part of the afflicted. Disease is not.

I'm all for curing diseases. I REFUSE to pander to paying for deviant decisions by others.

This includes liberalism, unfortunately... even though we call it a disease, lol! It's merely a decision made from knowing so many things that are wrong.

"Psychosexual Illness"?????? New term? A rampant plague running through the Boy Scouts, lol! It' not anything but mental illness! Plain, straightforward, mental illness. Sexual deviance is just that, deviance from a norm, period!
