It would be interesting to see who the City of Madison does give its money to, and what organizations the receipients do or do not support.

Some people think that the founder of the Boy Scouts, Lord Robert Baden-Powell, was gay himself.

This year, the Scouts can volunteer, but they can’t benefit from the fundraising because, in the words of City Alder Steve Holtzman, it “would be sending a very unfortunate message to the community.”

Actually, Mr. Holtzman, it is you who are sending a message to the community.

And what an ugly, spiteful, small-minded message it is.

You should be ashamed of your very existence.

I live in MADison, and I can tell you this. You don't want to even know. It would make you explode in a fit of rage.

We should ask Holtzman and the Madison City council if they think these are bad messages / ideals for the community to be teaching kids;

A Scout is Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly
Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave
Clean, and Reverent

The scout law!

The city council is bereft of any of these qualities.

Homosexuality is a bad choice.

Homosexual Agenda Ping - Madison vies with Ithaca as the "City of Evil" - more attacks on the Boy Scouts.

Ok, more homework!

We should all support the Boy Scouts - even very small donations are appreciated, and we can tell them WHY we support them!

Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist!

The unfortunate message here is one of threatening boyscouts and those wanting to have nothing to do with homos. It's their body, they can choose.

Okay, I'm convinced. I'm sending a donation to the Boy Scouts.

"...who the City of Madison does give its money to..."

I live in Madison, and you would probably be shocked to see to whom & to what insane causes these fascists in the city council will give millions of tax dollars to.

This latest injury by the Madison City Council will only increase the pressure on the local Boy Scouts to seek the ways of political correctness

I hope not, there is really nothing in the law that says everyone has a right to everything else. (Or the right not to be excluded or offended where private groups are concerned.)
