The Boy Scouts (Mr. B. is a rising First Class) recently changed their policy to start admitting homosexual boys, even here in Texas. They still refuse, however, to allow homosexual adults as full or assistant scoutmasters.
So California—naturally it would be the Californicators—is raising the ante. The scouts must allow homosexuals in all capacities or lose their nonprofit status there. Also the California churches and synagogues that frequently sponsor their outfits (called troops) must do the same or suffer the same.
The way to fight this, it seems to me, would be to demand (via a good lawsuit if necessary) that it be enforced equally. Politicians don’t do equal very well, for all their pious prattle about it.
Force mosques, for instance, to allow homosexuals in all capacities. Since the goat-lovers are about the only fully-protected American minority these days, their howling might get this oppressive nonsense stopped. Might. Or it may take the Boy Scouts joining the business exodus out of California.
















The Mormons adopted Boy Scouting as their youth program almost from the beginning, and a sizable minority of BSA is chartered to the LDS. The politicos can start there too – – force the Mormons by law to change their theology.
It would follow Obama’s policy of “punishing your enemies” since the LDS played a big role in Prop 8.
Sure, if the Progs are so certain of their righteousness in the matter, let’s see them take it all the way. Let’s see the courage of their convictions.
I don’t personally care whether homosexuals are scout masters, since I know that most homosexuals are not pedophiles. But I don’t like the coercion. On the other hand, you could argue (and I’m sure the Progs would) that ending segregation in 1964 was also a form of coercion, which is certainly true. But it didn’t involve the tax code, as far as I remember.
