Ban conversion therapy
 

Many people don't seem to realize that conversation therapy also includes tactics used by the military to drive enemy agents crazy. Shock therapy, aversion therapy, humiliation tactics, etc. These are among the many tactics used in conversion therapy. 

Any person willing to support this type of therapy is also a person who supports torture tactics. I, for one, am unwilling to support the torture of other humans just because they didn't "turn out to be the type of person i wanted them to be".

That type of mindset is the root of ultimate stupidity, and in part, the reason why we as a country are looked down upon in such condescending manners within the eyes of other much more sophisticated countries.

Be smart and prove those other countries wrong. Prove to them that we aren't as stupid as the rest of the world thinks we are.
