Disney Stops Funding to Boy Scouts of America Over Gay Ban [Why No Call To Boycott Disney?]
NBCNews ^ | March 01, 2014

Disney Stops Funding to Boy Scouts of America Over Gay Ban The Walt Disney Co. announced it is pulling funding to the Boy Scouts of America because the organization bans openly gay troop leaders.

Although the Boy Scouts began welcoming gay scouts in January, the group still forbids gay members after they turn 18 — as well as gay parents — from leading troops and packs.

Disney didn't reveal how much money it has donated to the organization in the past, according to NBC affiliate WESH in Orlando. But the entertainment company said it will stop its funding starting in 2015 in a letter that was posted online last week.

Disney dissolved into its own fantasy world and its former sanity has not been heard from since.

Every child actor who comes from Disney is a mess

Miley Cyrus is the Disney princess

LOL! I’ve been a disney denier/boycotter for years. Played a gig at a soundstage in the backlot one time a few years back. It was harder to get back there than my regular job working on the shuttle. Talk about security. $$$$$$$

I thought the Boy Sodomites of America were fag friendly. I don’t have any use for Disney anyway.

Used to be a family friendly company instead of fag friendly. Let them cater to the 1.5%.

Disney isn't cheap to go to.

The free shit army isn't paying admission, its moral Americans with jobs that don't like sex perverts or their supporters.

Boycott Disney.

Since the BSA chose darkness, this is a win-win for people of conscience, even though we still grieve the death.

If the BSA refuses to lift all sodomite bans, they’ll increasingly lose funding. If the do lift it, they’ll lose virtually all their valuable members.

Let it die. The sooner the better.

you are of course wrong having been duped

there are no 7 or 11 year old queers.

a queer scout is likely to have become a deviant after several years of membership

They always want more.

They honestly don’t see the problem in putting boys under the auspices of men who want to have sex with men.

If you don’t trust a middle aged man alone with a 16yr old girl then why is it bigoted to not trust a middle aged gay man with a 16yr old boy?

I accept them being gay, however I reject their demands to “know” young boys.

Oh tut tut, mon ami. Most Americans have been told that you're born a fag . . . and can't do a thing about it. That's what Doprah Witless told us for many, many years . . . and she should know, if you know what I mean. Ask her "straight-prop" Stedmanly.

Speaking of a fagfest (was I?), I'm going to conveniently miss the so-called Oscars tomorrow so I don't have to listen to ellen degenerate promote faggotry while dressed like a man and then have to listen to the "trash American" so-called jokes and filth during the rest of the show.

I've DVRd a bunch of History Channel goodies to gorge on all evening.

Well, I don't accept their "being gay." It's a terrible mental and physical sickness, especially among men that shortens their lifespan by over 30 years. And I'm tired of listening to them carp about we Americans not doing enough to find a cure for AIDS. AIDS is totally 100% preventable right now . . . all they have to do is get mental and spiritual help and stick to it.

“If I never give Disney another dollar...that would be fine.”

That’s my plan. Poor Walt Disney, to have his company taken over by the people that run it now would have made him very sad if he had lived to see it. The same pond scum that run most all of the media now have Disney. What a shameful end to a once wonderful company!

Probably because you’d have to pull the head off a hundred of the Disney mascots to find a straight one.
