An editorial in the Philadelphia Daily News says the attack on the Scouts, and their moral stand, comes at a time in Philadelphia when the city suffers a murder a day, "but City Hall thinks Public Enemy No. 1 is the Boy Scouts of America".

It's a sad world we live in.

Boy Scouts Ping

[DeLaine]

How can they kick them out since they gave it with the stipulation that they be allowed to use it in perpetuity?????

[GOPJ]

The famous Beaux Arts style building was built and paid for by the Scouts, and turned over to the city with the understanding that the Scouts would be allowed to remain in it rent-free "in perpetuity."

Get a lawyer and sue.

If this is correct.....they should fight it!

Tell me where to donate..$$$

[DManA]

If someone had told the Boy Scout leaders in 1929, better not turn this bulding over to the city, they may kick you out because you won’t allow homosexual scout leaders, they would rightly have thrown the guy into the loony bin.

Wow - I'm surprised that there wasn't an editorial applauding the city for standing up for Gay Rights (tm).

The city is breaking the contract. Sue them for repossession of the building and all expenses involved.

Perverts in Power

[SandRat]

This is just soooooooo WRONG!

[neodad]

This will backfire. Evil always over-reaches.

So why can't the scout sew the living hell out of the city for reneging on the initial agreement for the terms of the lease, as well as sue for religious persecution?

[JZelle]

They’re welcome to use my basement.

[proudofthesouth]

If they are forced to vacate (and I hope they do win in court), they need to remove every square inch of the building.

"How is it that an organization that has done immeasurable good for tens of millions of boys becomes one of America's most notorious and dangerous hate groups?"

We lost the Culture War, that's how.

Evil has yet to over-reach.

[no more apples]

They are being charged an outrageous amount of rent for the land, not the building. Since they can’t pay it, they get booted. And that really stinks. This is a religeous hate crime.
