Boy Scouts vote to lift ban on gay youth
May 23 2013

GRAPEVINE, Texas -- The Boy Scouts of America voted
Thursday to end its controversial policy banning gay
kids and teens from joining one of the nation's most
popular youth organizations, ditching membership
guidelines that had roiled the group in recent years.
Over 61 percent of Scouting's National Council of 1,400
delegates from across the country voted to lift the ban,
BSA officials said. The final tally was 757 yes votes,
to 475 no.

It's about ****ing time!

Next step is to allow atheists. Until that day, the Boy Scouts are
still a bigoted organization.

The fact that they had to take it to a vote seems strange to me, but
it's good to know that 39% of the upper echelon are still anti-gay.

It's disappointing that people give as much respect to The Boy Scouts
as they do. The organization is defective and needs new leadership
that respects and embraces the personal freedoms of its membership.


You always have the choice of joining and trying to change it
Alternately you can start something equivalent modified to meet your
standards.

We will see that happen now.

Always funny to see people come along and criticize a group of people who
join together for whatever reasons , that don't meet the critics' standards.

Lefties *NEED* to control others.
