City Hikes Boy Scouts' Rent By $199,000 Over Gay Ban

Killem all.Let god sortem out.
Just kidding kiddies.

The boy scouts have the right to not allow gays, and the government has a right to up their rent if they choose.

I'm with P4B though, when I was in the scouts, we met in the school cafeteria. Why do they need a private building?

Didn't know that - America really can suck at times.

You can join the scouts here (uk) if you are gay, straight or not even sure :thumbsup:

Because it is a privately owned group. They can extend or deny membership to anyone, for any reason. I agree it's wrong though.

Howdy Y'all,

It has not been determined what the amount of subsidization is occurring in regards to the rent,the Boy Scouts are more than willing to pay a fair amount-what they have proposed is unfair and undetermined to be congruent with other similar property rents.

All of this is being driven by the militant homosexuals in Philly's city goverment..as they seek to make-over Philly into another Sodom and Gommorah,similar to San Francisco.

The Boy Scouts do not recieve goverment funding,they raise all of their funds. Also,why can't the Scouts have their own private buildings-especially if they are the ones who build them ! ? :mad:

Building a structure from the ground-up..builds character..good character..as well as teach all sorts of valuable skills.

Due to modern liberalism though,having a good character,is percieved as a fatal flaw..a dirty word. :mad:

Have a good one ...
