Say what? Boy Scout leader is not a paid position, he doesent earn his living from it.
Let me see if I got this right; you want him put on "administrative leave" from a job that doesent pay anything, as opposed to having to have to apply all over agin? Nutso
The SCOTUS ruled the BSA can associate with whomever they want, and set their own rules..You know, you sound like a guvvie.

All the more reason to treat him fairly, because he’s a Volunteer. No volunteers, no Boy Scout Leaders, no programs, no Boy Scouts.
Volunteers are the Boy Scouts’ most valuable assets. As an organization they owe their Volunteers Due Process and Fair Play.
Remuneration does not even play into the equation.

“Administrative leave” assumes neither innocence nor guilt, but still prevents him from participating as a Volunteer, pending the outcome of his trial.
That is perfectly fair: nobody could possibly object to that.
Note I said “Administrative Leave” not “Paid Administrative Leave” — there is no requirement to reimburse someone in order to grant them leave.

I frankly don’t care what your SCOTUS says, tho’ I agree in general with the BSA’s right to free association.
Just because your SCOTUS has set a minimum legal standard does not mean that standard constitutes good governance for a Volunteer organization.
> You know, you sound like a guvvie.
I’m not a “guvvie” — whatever that is — but I *am* the chairman and founder of a registered Charitable Trust and I *do* sit on three other charitable Boards of Trustees and I *have* taken a close and direct interest into the governance of all these Charitable Organizations because, as a Board Member I am cleanly “on the hook” legally and financially if I don’t.
Those are my credentials in this area: how about you?
