In case you don’t already know, the Boy Scouts have stood up again for god, flag and country and said no damn gays here. No way.
On his radio show yesterday, Mike Huckabee spelled out in no uncertain terms that he believes the policy is “right” because it protects boys from abuse. He welcomed a call from a listener who had been abused by his scout leader, and Huckabee agreed that part of the definition of “homosexual” is molesting children . . .
Story here.
As for the kid in the picture, that’s Eagle Scout Eric Jones.
He said his troop is like family to him. While both his parents and fellow troop members accepted him, Jones was forced to cut ties with the Boy Scouts of America because of a century-old policy about homosexuality.
You can have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, or democracy. But you cannot have both.

That’s a bit odd, considering Scouting founder Lord Baden-Powell was widely believed to be a homosexual himself…

Two of my fellow scouts actually ended up being gay. Intolerance wasn’t something the Boy Scouts taught me and it’s not something that should be taught today.

And the militar finally figured that out.
Wonder how people would like it if school athletic teams turned down gay players?
