Morally Bent.
I was a boy scout. If today’s policy was in effect then, my parents would not want me nor would I want to be in an organization which catered to openly homo fags. I don’t recall any discussions of sex during my days there and don’t think it should be part of the Boy Scout mission to promote divient behavior. I guess today they will start giving merit badges but limits of decency prevents me from saying here what those badges will be for.
Boy Scouting’s professional staff generates a cost of just over $5 million per year for retirement costs. Assuming that’s 8% of salaries, you’re talking about $55 million per year for salaries. http://www.scouting.org/filestore/about/AnnualReports/pdf/2011_TreasurerReport.pdf ~ which would be, at $12 per hour, a going rate for custodial caretakers these days, yields a maximum of 2200 paid staff people. The annual report says there are 1.2 million volunteers. The gay decision benefits no one but the paid staff and a couple of big donors who have already whacked the amount they contribute. Driving off any percentage of the volunteers will destroy the organization.
