Didn’t the Boy Scouts organization build the building that they are renting?

They should move the building off the property they’ve been renting. And should that be too cost prohibitive, demolish the building out of spite. No surrender to a political witchhunt.

Let the city build their own damn building on that land.

Well, it certainly is no surprise that Philadelphia wants to force the Boy Scouts to let homosexual scout leaders take little boys off into the woods. My consternation is with the Boy Scouts - - why on earth would an organization with strong American traditions, values, and standards want to be anywhere near a place like Philadelphia?

Gimme a break. Get outta there!
Run, don’t walk.

That title is spelled wrong, though I’m not sure which is correct. Philthadelphia or Filthadelphia?

So liberals pretended to be aghast at all the priest scandals but they want to force the Boy Scouts to have homosexual leaders taking millions of boys aged 11 - 17 off in the woods for campouts, etc. OH, YEAH, liberals really “care about the children”...... this is just the latest pc-insanity from the depraved and deranged left.

Of all the reasons I would love to be filthy rich, this is one that I think about all the time. I would love to set up trust funds for the scouts and others so they wouldn't have to listen to this crap anymore.

It always seems funny that the tree huggers can buy ships and the ACLU never seems to run out of money, but real Americans seem to be getting poorer. Just think if Buffet and Gates were conservatives along with the Google boys. They could set up private schools, fund the boy scouts and the ACLJ in perpetuity and never miss a house payment. How about that Mark Cuban? Ain't he a red blooded Amerikan? Between Oprah and Hollywood and Silicon Valley, we don't stand a chance. They have literally bought America.

Do the mobsters and dock workers in Philly really support fudge packers? Surely somebody could break someones knee caps or something.

Gives new meaning to the term “city of brotherly love”......

May God protect the Boy Scouts of America.

Is there a source to show the rate of gay scout leaders, before the ban, who abused kids compared to that of priests?

All I want to say about this booting out of the scouts from their building is that recently here in Boston the city gave a MASSIVE break to a mosque that was built, the biggest in the Northeast. I'll just leave it to you to compare that with the effort to hurt the boy scouts and draw the logical conclusion.

even if there’s no sexual abuse, they are teaching the wrong values to children

” even if there’s no sexual abuse, they are teaching the wrong values to children “

if they could get this lesson out of it, it would be great.

“iliminate liberals and you won’t have these problems”

I hope the Scouts stick to their guns, and if necessary, move out.

If there's been no abuse, why are people saying they don't want scout leaders taking boys into the woods to molest them?

Are there any reports of gay scout leaders dispensing their agenda to the scouts?
