Boy Scouts participation off limits to judges, says California Supreme Court

By Kellan Howell - The Washington Times - Saturday, January 24, 2015

The Supreme Court of California announced Friday that California judges will no longer be permitted to participate in nonprofit youth groups like the Boy Scouts of America due to the groups position on gay rights issues.

But justices have lifted a ban on judges belonging to a military organization now that LGBT people can serve openly in the U.S. Armed Services, The Bay Area Reporter reported Thursday.

The court found fault with the scouting group, which does allow gay youth to participate but bans LGBT adults from serving as troop leaders.

The decision reversed a previous rule that gave nonprofit youth groups and exception from ethics rules that prohibit judges from holding membership in any organization that practices discrimination on the basis on race, sex, gender, religion, national origin, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.

The newspaper reported that judges will have until January 21, 2016 to comply with the new rule.

Sad how far California has fallen; it's history, so to speak. Remember Rome.

Maybe Trump can sell California to Mexico to pay for the wall. It’ll need to be a longer wall to block off California, but worth it. I grew up in California and still love some places but nothing could make me move back.

Violates Freedom of Association.
That right has been dead since the civil rights movement.

Both the Boy Scouts and the Augusta National Golf Club, have recently and successfully, defended their right to include/exclude anyone they want.
IIRC, they cited the USSC Boy Scouts v. Dale case.

Yep. BSA has since burned down their last firewall although, for the time being, BSA sponsoring groups are still free to exclude the Rump Rangers.

Not that this issue is not horrifically Fascist, but this was published over a year ago:

The Washington Times - Saturday, January 24, 2015

Since the BSA has essentially gone completely homo subsequent to this article, I imagine the California Sodomic Court will now gush all over anyone who wants to associate with them.

Well, with 64% of HIV/AIDS and 68% of all STD cases, in the U.S., being among that <3% of the population...I’d say there’s a lot of good queers and their numbers are rising, then.

if you're not a member of the news media, you can skip this message.

To The News Media

You work for a corrupt oligarchy and are supposed to protect them and their frauds and felonies at all times. But you aren't very bright. None of you ever picked up a chessboard. Be very very careful attacking apparently outrageous things Donald Trump says. You react to what appears to be low hanging fruit, and pee yourselves over the slavish passion to use your favorite word, 'racist.'

Every single time, you fall for the rope-a-dope. He is always leading you down a path where eventually you will be the cause of an exposure of a dark corner of the crooked oligarchy. You now have fallen again. You have forced exposure into our racist judge association laws. Do you want this whole house of cards to come tumbling down? Stop being fooled by Donald Trump. The people are catching on to the whole scheme.

There was a judge here in Orange County who kept an online pedophilia journal. Someone hacked into it and exposed the judge including his name. No judge organization removed him; he hadn’t committed a crime. He wrote things about the boys he was attracted to when he was a volunteer umpire. He looked for boys who had hard working single mothers, and would offer to drive them to practice, take them to dinner. He would say things like, “Damn, that Steven is growing leg hairs. Not interested in him any more.” He wanted them before puberty.

John and Ken on the radio got the word out and at the next election when this judge was running unopposed and literally have a write in campaign to get him out. The judges’ bar or whatever didn’t do anything to him.

In the battle between good and evil, we have not done well over the past eight years.

I pray that America can recover from all the damage inflicted by our enemies under their maliciously destructive leader. BSA was a source of greatness, to the point that people with character were often praised (or derided) as "a Boy Scout" well into adulthood. That contribution to our national character is why the far left fringe hates Scouting so much.

Free association?

But, it is okay for a Judge to be a member of La Raza or affiliate?

It needs to be restored.

It won't be restored except by the blood of Tyrants and Patriots. Long, long overdue.

In theory only. Don't think that one adult sodomite demanding membership in a specific unwilling troop won't be granted that demand.

Leftists never mean what they say about freedom.

True. The reason I said for the time being.

Was it Bob Hope who once said "Now that California has made sodomy legal, I'm getting out of here before they make it mandatory!" ?
