It's up to the parent, it's their choice. If they know and trust these homosexual leaders, then fine.. if not, it's their right to deny their children the scouting experience.
Most parents, believe it or not, do not want to increase the odds that their children will be molested. But apart from that, most parents don't want to condone, implicitly or explicitly, the filthy practices engaged in by (the majority) of homosexual men - such as anal intercourse - or the promiscuity which is endemic to homosexual society.
What about the filthy, promiscuous heterosexual men who engage in anal intercourse with their wives and/or girlfriends? :-o.
Should they be barred from Scout leadership as well?
You may disagree with these parents - but they have the right to determine who will be in charge of their children. Homosexuals are in a far outer universe to think that they have the right to be in the close company of other people's children on overnight campouts in the absence of those children's parents. They don't. So sorry.
Not in the Boy Scouts, no.
What are you talking about? Parents have the right to choose the organizations that they think will most benefit their children. Several millions parents have chosen Boy Scouts of America to help raise their kids. It's a good choice - because Boy Scouts brings a lot of benefits to their sons. If you don't like their policy on homosexuals, I'm sure you can find some homosexual men to take your kids on overnight camping trips. Liberals expect everyone to trust homosexual men with their teenage sons. People don't. The continued yearly molestation of Boy Scouts by homosexual men, the molestations and rapes of thousands of teenage boys in the Catholic Church by homosexual priests, the continued attempt by homosexuals to tell kids that homosexuality is 'normal' and 'healthy' (it's not), the continued attempts by homosexuals to lower ages of consent in every state in the union, the vilification of anyone who has any reservations about homosexuality, etc. etc. tells you why. But of course, liberals distinguish themselves almost always by a complete lack of common sense - whether on Iraq, foreign policy in general, affirmative action, bilingual educaiton, welfare, etc. etc. Putting homosexual men in charge of other people's teenage boys is just one more example.
Homosexual men represent the practice of anal intercourse (a practice which most of them engage in and which is well known to most teenage boys). Surprisingly to you, I'm sure, most parents don't want to promote that practice to their sons. But hey, if you want to promote the joys of humping other men's rear ends to your sons, go ahead.
