Right in the middle of Perversion Month? Oh, that won't sit well with some...

Confirming a wise decision I made 11 years ago to flee Michigan when I retired.

(In fairness, there’s a lot of Michigan that isn’t insane, but unfortunately they get out-voted (or out-cheated) by the Detroit/AnnArbor/Lansing/GrandRapids axis.)

Whitmer also endorsed two bills seeking to prohibit mental health professionals from engaging minors in conversion therapy, described as any treatment that seeks to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity.

“Conversion therapy is opposed by medical experts, is rooted in bigotry and it can have long-term harmful effects,” Whitmer said.

Generally, I would agree with banning conversion therapy for minors. However, since this is Whitmer doing this with backing of the LGBTs, I suspect that it will be okay to use funds to change your biological sex, but not revert back to it.

Government money should not go towards conversion therapy to bein with. Any conservative worth his/her salt should agree with that.

Sorry but the evidence is clear; this so called therapy does not work and it eventually causes long term psychological harm to the child. It may make Mom or Dad feel better thinking they saved their child but the effects are temporary and the overwhelming percentage eventually resume the lifestyle...after mom and dad's bank account is significantly lighter.

They want as many people as possible in the certified victim group. Trying to leave the specially privileged group now will be a little harder.

[Maris Crane]

How about banning “conversion” in the FIRST place.

THAT is where the mental unbalance occurs.

Whitmer is a real Whackoo.

[nickcarraway]

Have any public funds anywhere ever been used for conversion therapy?

[joma89]

I suggest we outlaw the democrat party instead.
