Bill Would Use Calif.’s Tax Policy To Pressure Boy Scouts Into Fully Accepting Gay Members

The state Senate approved legislation Wednesday that would use California’s tax policy in an attempt to pressure the Boy Scouts of America into fully accepting gay members.

The bill would make the organization ineligible for nonprofit tax breaks, despite its vote last week to accept openly gay scouts while blocking gays from becoming scout leaders.

... It now goes to the Assembly. If the bill is eventually signed into law by the governor, the groups would have to pay corporate taxes on donations, membership dues and camp fees, while also paying sales tax on food, beverages and homemade items sold at fundraisers.

Who didn't see this coming?

Give the fags an inch and they want a mile. That "vote" last week was a big, BIG mistake.

Hand it to them and say you ‘can have the organization but we are taking the honor with us’.

Given the degree to which hispanics and homosexuals have taken over the California legislature, and given their legislative record since it's pretty obvious we should allow neither in the United States.

These guys just don't respect any part of the First Amendment. The proposal here is totally alien to the American tradition. Actually, it's worth a war ~ we need to take our property back and kick these guys out.

The faggots are being accomodated to destroy all semblance of honor, dignity, Patriotism, and morality to further the Agenda of the Progressives.

The day will come when all these "Identified" special interest groups will become target practice when the populace has had enough of this crap.

When Texas leaves the Union, there isn't enough space there to accomdodate the REAL Americans that will flock there to escape the Reparations, Sex Deviate pandering, and inner-city tribal parasite handouts that are OVERWHELMING taxpayers today.

A government targeting a specific private organization that is not doing anything illegal? What’s next, churches?

Great example of government tyranny using their power to force a private entity to accept government social demands.

Pull out of California, and continue shrinking back to only those states that allow the BSA to exist according to its original charter.

It will need to be political “card check” at the border to prevent the Rat cancer from spreading.

That didn’t take long (not that anyone thought it would).

The Boy Scouts are a dead issue.

They won’t last another year in California.

Did anyone ever think we would see America’s son’s attacked by politicians?, who want to force sodomy on them?

It is much like the stories in the Bible where the faggots came to Lott’s home and sought out the Angels for their pleasure. They were struck blind. Its too bad the California Senate that approved this will not be struck blind. However if they were a lot of things would change in this country overnight.

Unreal. And if that doesn’t pass here, I will be stubbed. I say again, unreal.
