Cite a source for this.

In 2000 he supported the use of federal funds for therapy that would encourage people to change their sexual behavior, so "conversion therapy." I see no evidence that this was ever implemented by him, though it would be reasonable to assume he still supports it. However, I've seen nothing that says HE implemented it and that teens have committed suicide as a result of his actions. Please provide a source for your claim.

I voted HRC, but unsubstantiated claims by liberals of Trump/Pence-related suicides are pissing me off. You are using the suffering of others to prop up your political beliefs and it's not right. Public coverage of suicide (even untrue rumors) can inspire ACTUAL suicide, especially among youth.

Again, please source your info on Pence-related conversion therapy suicides and I'll stand corrected. [/quote]
