The Scouts ought to go into their files and show how many pedophiles they have had to purge from the ranks of Scout leaders. A very practical reason for not allowing gays to be Scoutmasters: they can't leave boys alone.

I'm amazed that here in PA, scout leaders do not need a background check. Teachers and even Sunday School teachers need a state police check and child abuse clearance to work with children. However scout leaders do not. They just take some goofy 20 minute online tutorial and that's it.
