Boy Scout Finishes Eagle Scout Project

[url=http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/boy-scout-denied-eagle-award-coming-193454949.html]Is denied Eagle Scout rank and kicked out of Scouts because he is -blam!-.[/url] He built a tolerance wall for his school, a mural with supportive messages from fellow students. As a fellow Eagle Scout, I feel ashamed of the organization.

They can do whatever the hell they want.[/quote] Except they can't. They receive Government money so are subject to non-discrimination laws. What they've done here and in may cases like this before it go against those laws.[/quote] No they aren't. That would mean that the Boy Scouts would have to allow girls in as troops, too. But I don't see anybody arguing. Once again, they're a private organization. They can set their own standards for membership.[/quote] Your example is horrendous, as the reason you don't have girls trying to join the boys scouts is there is something for them on the same level - the girls scouts. And yes, they get federal money, try googling it, [/quote] Don't be a dumbass. Discrimination based upon sex is equally as bad as discrimination based upon orientation, in the eyes of the law. And even while there is a Girl Scout organization, the two are separately run. That means that the groups are indeed discriminating on sex, even though it's not necessarily a bad thing. But you do bring up a good point. Considering there are both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, ghey people should make their own Boy Scouts for gheys, or an organization that welcomes all.
