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.

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

But LaRaza and other anti- America groups are permitted apparently.

So the Supreme Court is telling us that Thought Control is not only legal but binding?

ELECTION 2016

Judge, law firm bringing Trump U case both tied to La Raza
Curiel awarded scholarship to illegal immigrant

Jerome R. Corsi 6/8/2016

NEW YORK – The federal judge presiding over the Trump University class action lawsuit is a member of the San Diego La Raza Lawyers Association, a group that while not a branch of the National Council of La Raza, has ties to the controversial organization, which translates literally “The Race.”

U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who has been criticized by Donald Trump as a “hater” appointed by President Obama who should be recused from the case, listed his membership in the “La Raza Lawyers of San Diego” on a judicial questionnaire he filled out when he was selected to be a federal judge. He was named in a brochure as a member of the selection committee for the organization’s 2014 Annual Scholarship Fund Dinner & Gala. Meanwhile, the San-Diego based law firm representing the plaintiffs in the Trump University case, Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd, was listed as a sponsor of the event.

WND reported the San Diego firm paid $675,000 to the Clintons for speeches, and the firm’s founder is a wealthy San Diego lawyer who served a two-year sentence in federal prison for his role in a kickback scheme to mobilize plaintiffs for class-action lawsuits.

In doing so you be enabling segregation and racial discrimination. People natural segregate and discriminate against people unlike themselves and restoring Freedom of Association will restore that.

Yes, as private parties those are rights of association.

The government should be colorblind, but should not attempt to force individuals to be so.

The liberals and their positions are so convoluted and Effed up that they find themselves running into themselves now on a daily basis. No wonder they are always mad and bitter.

Is associating with or belonging to NAMBLA o.k.?

Does this mean that the judges can no longer join church affiliated groups such as Knight of Columbus or World Changers or such mission and service organizations because the denominations they are associated with do not support gay ascendancy?
