    The Title X Gag Rule

    The statute doesn't forbid referrals, period. Right? I've had extremely limited experience with doctors -- I can count my sick visits with doctors on one hand. But I've never known one doctor or other medical professional to make a referral to another doctor and require the patient to obtain a...

    Are Bans on Sexual Orientation Conversion Therapy Constitutional?

    This is a question for everyone here who believes that the Tampa ordinance is constitutional: Exactly what words or communications are forbidden by the Tampa ordinance for a provider to say?

    Are Bans on Sexual Orientation Conversion Therapy Constitutional?

    Where did you get that idea? Name a couple of dozen of the outlawed "medical treatments" that you are referring to. Can you name even one other type of psychotherapy or counseling that has been banned by law? I can't. Exactly what words or communications are forbidden by the Tampa ordinance for...

    Are Bans on Sexual Orientation Conversion Therapy Constitutional?

    Would you want courts to decide the constitutionality of such laws on the basis of whether they approve or disapprove of such therapy, or whether they approve or disapprove of parents consenting for therapies for their minor children?

    Are Bans on Sexual Orientation Conversion Therapy Constitutional?

    No, it's you who's wrong. The Venetian Patent Statute of March 19, 1474, established in the Republic of Venice the first statutory patent system in Europe, and may be deemed to be the earliest codified patent system in the world.[1][2] The Statute is written in oldVenetian dialect.[1] It...

    I agree with everything you said here. I don't expect anything positive to result from this summit. If anything, it will likely confirm what most of the world seems to already know: that Kim is more intelligent than Trump. The summit may help to elevate opinions on Kim's integrity. That would be...

    I haven't read the entire thread. In case it hasn't been noted: Patent and copyright laws are governmental methods to stimulate creativity and invention, which seem to be almost universally considered to be beneficial to humans.
