Judge temporarily blocks Calif. gay therapy law

[Politicub]

29. Sometimes judicial precedent is wrong.

Courts sometimes reverse decisions or rid the law of archaic notions of morality. Ironically, the law has often been wrong as it applies to civil rights for women, minorities and gays.

I've seen the damage that psychological abuse has done to people. Can you imagine what it's like for a little boy or girl to be belittled, guilted or bullied by a psychologist because they may dress, speak or choose toys that are targeted at the opposite gender? Have some empathy. It isn't some kind of navel-gazing law school test question. Grievous harm results from such buffoonery.

Educate yourself on what's involved with some of these reparative schemes. Electrical shock therapy is often used.

I'm not a lawyer so I'm not going to debate case law with you.

But I know this: The arc of history is bending toward justice for all lgbt people, including children.

Children deserve the right of not being subject to psychological abuse. And one day, much to the chagrin of people such as yourself, reparative therapies will be consigned to the dustbin of history.
