Truth Wins Out (TWO) today called on Parents and Friends of 'Ex-Gays' (PFOX) to drop its frivolous lawsuit against the Washington, DC Office of Human Rights. PFOX claimed it launched its suit because so-called "ex-gays" are not protected under its sexual orientation anti-discrimination law.
"The ex-gay community is the most bullied and maligned group in America, yet they are not protected by sexual orientation non-discrimination laws," said Regina Griggs, PFOX executive director.
"If so-called 'ex-gays' are now heterosexual, they are covered under the basis of sexual orientation," said Wayne Besen, Executive Director of Truth Wins Out. "This nonsensical lawsuit is frivolous and a desperate, grandstanding attempt for free media attention. PFOX should apologize for clogging up the court system with a loony lawsuit that will ultimately be dismissed."
TWO also disputes that so-called "ex-gays" suffer discrimination. PFOX has never offered any evidence and has long invented or greatly exaggerated potential cases. PFOX is a political organization that sells the idea that people can "pray away the gay." It was founded by lawyer Roy Cohn's ex-boyfriend, Anthony Falzarono, and bankrolled by the Family Research Council. It was later run by therapist Richard Cohen, who was banned for life by the American Counseling Association. The current leader is Regina Griggs, who has an openly gay son.

So PFOX is finally admitting that "ex-gay" means something other than "heterosexual"?
At least, that's the impression I get if they want specific protection of "ex-gays" in federal law. I suppose I'd be happy about that, if they weren't still insisting that "ex-gay" means something other than "homosexual" too.

Obviously they define being picked on as merely having their lies and unfounded claims questioned.
Very similar to other religious agendas like Intelligent Design. Make a claim that's ridiculous. Wait for someone credible to call you out on it. Then act like a victim just because sane people aren't buying your bullshit (and in the process trivialize the struggles of people who really have been subjected to discrimination).

通常情況,申請專利係採屬地主義,專利申請人雖已向外國申請,倘欲在我國受到專利保護,仍應向我國申請專利。申請人並應注意主張優先權期限,如逾主張優先權法定期限,又因外國申請案已公開或核准公告後才向我國申請專利,將喪失專利新穎性。
