On Monday, March 18, the New Jersey Senate Health, Human Services, and Senior Citizens Committee held a three-hour hearing on a bill that would take away the rights of minors who experience unwanted same-sex attraction (SSA) to receive therapy from licensed mental health professionals.
Representatives from gay-rights organizations, including the Human Rights Campaign, Equality New Jersey and the Trevor Project, as well as several mental health associations, testified at length about the so-called dangers of “conversion therapy” (this is a pejorative term coined by activists to demean therapies that assist individuals who experience unwanted SSA).
When Brielle Goldani, a transgendered woman from Toms River, N.J., stated she was tortured at an Ohio-based conversion therapy camp in 1997, the hearing turned very serious.
“Twice a week I was hooked up to electrodes on my hands,” she said. “I, a child, was shocked repeatedly by people who had my parent’s permission to torture me.” Goldani, now 29, claims that she had no rights when her parents sent her away as a male teenager. She claims that the torture occurred at conversion camp called True Directions. “This is nothing more than legalized child abuse,” claimed Goldani at the hearing.

In fact, the only trace of this camp is from a 1999 film titled “But I’m a Cheerleader,” starring RuPaul. In the film, the main character is suspected of being a lesbian by her family, who then proceeds to send her to a “conversion therapy” camp called True Directions.

The reality-based science-loving liberals strike again!
Pretty sure the MSM will overlook this like they did 0bama’s 40% no background check lie.
Why anyone would be stupid enough to believe any member of the pervert alliance is beyond logic. Has anyone ever noticed the claims made by male homosexuals that it is all about love, they have been with the same butt bud for a century, they have never been to a bathhouse, they have never had a venereal disease, they have never molested a little boy?. The list of lies common to all of them is nearly identical—it is just a part of the derangement.
But it’s the seriesness of the charge.
