Did you all see the show, "What Would You Do?" on ABC last week? It was in Provo, UT, with an actor playing a son who told his father that he was gay. The onlookers were NOT supportive! One of them even suggested conversion therapy. People actually really think that this can be done and that it's good for the clients! Simply appalling.

The statement by the CPA was helpful. It helps to know the reasons why they don't support the bill, and it's not because they support conversion therapy--they are trying to make the best possible bill that they can. Very interesting.
