Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson defends state ban on conversion therapy

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson appeared before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on Tuesday to ask the judges to uphold the state law banning “conversion therapy.”

Conversion therapy is a practice that attempts to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity.

State Bill 5722, the banning of conversion therapy, was signed into law in 2018 by Governor Inslee.

Brian Tingley, a state-licensed marriage and family therapist, is appealing the Aug. 2021 dismissal of a lawsuit challenging the law.

1. The same right of one State to deny, by law, some right of others...

The same right of one State to deny, by law, some right of others, like banning trans-therapy, applies equally to a different State banning conversion therapy.

The difference lies between affirming and denying weltanschauungs; welcoming vs rejecting points of view.

2. Would like to see this on court TV

A case like this should get more publicity than celebrity break ups.
