Please sign this and stop this stupidness. Even if you do not agree with same-sex love, trying to stop someone from feeling a certain way can cause negative consequences.Trying to suppress feelings and telling a person what they feel is wrong can cause depression and the person may feel like a failure if they do not succeed.

What if someone tried to stop you from loving your husband,wife or even child.

"Michele Bachmann and her husband, Marcus, hold some of the most extreme and disturbing anti-LGBT views of any presidential candidate and spouse. Marcus Bachmann once said gay people were "barbarians" who "needed to be disciplined." But the Bachmanns' homophobia goes well beyond words alone: They've both publicly supported the dangerous theory of "ex-gay," which says homosexuality can be cured or even prayed away."


"Leading medical associations like the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association have called reparative or conversion “therapy” for gay Americans dangerous, warning that it may lead to serious consequences and distorts what it means to live as an LGBT individual. 

Despite these strong rebukes from the medical field's top professionals, Michele Bachmann and her husband Marcus have continued to advance the "ex-gay" theory. Marcus Bachmann – who practices unlicensed in Minnesota and whose clinic has received more than $100,000 in Medicaid funding – reportedly offers reparative therapy.
