Here they go again. Maybe its time for a referendum protecting the freedom of non profits.

Next it will be churches, and preachers will be thrown into jail.

Legislation forcing the rest of society to accept the behavioral choices of others is not freedom, but tyrannical insolence.

Under the bill, SB 323, California would strip tax-exempt status from any “organization organized and operated exclusively as a public charity youth organization that discriminates on the basis of gender identity, race, sexual orientation, nationality, religion, or religious affiliations.”

Under this law, could they get rid of CAIR? Or any other mosque that preaches hate? Do they dare?

They can’t do that — tax exempt status is a federal thing.

I begin to despair.

Is it possible that the only thing that has kept maniacal perversion at bay for centuries has been bigottry, lynchings, the KKK and the like?

I would like to think that reasoned thought could have command of the public square, but it seems that people are determined to be ruled by extremes.

I am sure that much of this is due to the quality of people. There is ample evidence for anyone who cares to see that what passes for education today, is not. Perhaps it is vain to expect barnyard animals to act like more than they are.

They’ll replace it with Strength Through Joy, or Obama Youth. History repeats.

I would guess that millions of the most generous donors to California charities would cut them off over this evil attack on BSA. As much as I love my favorite charities, I will not support a charity that is tax-advantaged over BSA - ever.

“The bill would strip organizations like the Boy Scouts of their tax-exempt status if they won’t abandon their long-held values and allow themselves to be strong-armed into admitting people into membership who don’t hold to those values”

Doesn’t the US constitution protect citizens from retaliatory actions by government?

Scouts incorporated = person.

That wording can't be accidental.

In 10 years the Boy Scouts will be a club for young gay boys, complete with pedophiles for leaders.

Does this mean I will be allowed to enter any California mosque with my seeing eye pig?

Ballot initiatives are populist and anti-republican and anti-conservative.
