The Boy Scouts of America's stance of not allowing openly gay people to serve as troop leaders or members has inspired several Eagle Scouts to return their hard-earned medals and renounce their membership.

I read somewhere that a maximum of 2% of our population might, I repeat, might have homo tendencies.
How does 2% of a population raise so much fuss that they are granted a special privilege and protection requiring that the rest of us, 98% of our population, fall in line behind them.
To hear the media tell it, a body would think that every other person they met was gay. Our Republic is lost. I am grateful that I am now old and some of my health issues will no doubt take me soon.
We had gay people around when I was young, though not many. We all knew who they were, they kept to themselves and we left them alone. What happened?
Good! Thanks Chris!
So what.
Just reading:
“In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that whis is right in his own eyes.” (Judges 21:25)[the last verse in the book of Judges]
“Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking head thereto according to thy word. With my whole heart have I sought Thee: oh let me not wander from Thy commandments. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee.” (Psalm 119:9-11)
Yeah. They will tell you that you are bigoted and homophobic, and that homosexuality has nothing to do with pedastery or pedophilia.
Uh huh.
The hypocrisy of the left is indeed breathtaking. The Boy Scouts are protecting their members from sexual predators, exactly what the libs are only too happy to criticize the Catholics and Penn State for failing to do.
Of course, I suppose we could all be stupid enough to believe the nonsense that those gay troop leaders are not there to find victims and recruits.
So, hey lefties, here’s the truth: gay men want to be scout leaders for the purposes of preying on the boys exactly the same way the priests and Sandusky did. Scout leadership is working hard to prevent that. They should be applauded, not criticzed. Deal with reality.
“Anybody who puts MBA after their name is a dork.”
I’d imagine it was to lend weight to his protest; all it did was show the disconnect between the “educated elite” and the average Joes that make this country work (including the reproducing side of that). This idiot probably hasn’t had a Christian thought since the day he left for college...
You hit the nail right on the head. In fact, that’s worthy of a letter to Mr. Baker himself.
Lecturing idiots.
OK, Mr. MBA, you made your point. I guess you had a meeting with the press so they could take the picture shown with the article for emphasis...I hardly think the BSA would have invited in some fag loving reporter to do so.
Anyway, this is what happens when heads full of mush get “exposed” to our liberal teaching institutions: inclusion, equality of outcomes, and homosex and “rights” are elevated above doing ones duty to God and Country.
LLS
Buh Bye
maybe these little progressives who owe all they earned to the leadership of concerned morally straight men and women, can find the next Lord Baden-Powell in the gay community and start a rump rangers organization to teach progressive values to their sons
LOL!!!!
Obviously...Democrats.....
Or queer Eagles
Not sure what this means, but I'd venture to guess that the man Maggie married is not the same man he was when he earned his Eagle Scout medal.
The gay advocates knew just what they were doing when they dressed up their agenda as a “civil rights” movement.
It makes people feel all noble and proud to say, “I just cannot take part in such bigotry; if you’re not on the side of equality I’ll have to leave.” .
Just what the rainbow advocates had planned for and hoped for (”hey, let’s stir up that old 1960s civil rights era sentiment, bet that’ll work”). Really stupid and pathetic, but it’s working to a degree unimaginable 30 years ago.
This is a disgrace
I was told by one of my fellow scouts in Connecticut in the early 70’s, that the scoutmaster felt up one of the kids. I told my mom, kind of confused at what to say, but wow, did she and Dad take it seriously.
That scout leader was removed asap, they didnt place charges to keep it quiet and keep the kids out of court
That Scouting should be allowed to include, no, FORCED to include potential pedophiles is an outrage.
“The Boy Scouts are no more “bigoted” than they’ve ever been. They’re upholding the same standards they’ve held since the Boy Scouts were created.....The only thing that has changed is “You.”
Money quote! Who are these narcissists, anyway?
