Note that the author never mentioned the Boy Scouts' win in their Supreme Court case. The Court ruled that it is the First Amendment right of the Scouts to include whomever they want in their ranks as leaders, and as mambers. In short, the author (who is an attorney and therefore must know about the case), is demanding that the Scouts give up THEIR constitutional rights because he says so.
I would never dream of suggesting that this writer should be banned from HIS constitutional rights because he is stupid. I will defend to the death his right to be stupid. And every step of the way I will point out that he is dumb as a bag of hammers and shifty as a snake in bacon grease.
I speak as an Eagle Scout with two palms, Order of the Arrow, and Junior Assistant Scoutmaster, who has the greatest respect for the program of Scouting, exactly as it has always been conducted. A Scout is: "Trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, thifty, obedient, cheerful, brave, clean and reverent."
I point out in passing that it's pretty hard for a lawyer, or a politician, to live up to that list of 12 characteristics. Maybe the writer would be more content with: "Dishonest, disloyal, harmful, hostile, unfriendly, discourteous, unkind, profligate, disobedient, morose, cowardly, dirty, and profane." He could form his own organization; I even have a name for it: "The Democrat Scouts of America."

Supreme Court decisions that don't go liberals' way are irrelevant. Roe v. Wade merely pointed out, and protected, for all time, a woman's sacred Constitutional right to an abortion. The Boy Scout decision was nothing but a politically-motivated assault on basic human rights by a bunch of Republican-appointed activist judges.
