VINELAND -- When Kyle Brandon arrived for classes at Cumberland County College one night last spring, he didn't expect to come face to face with dozens of members of the Boy Scouts of America.

But that's what happened when Brandon, a 36-year-old openly gay Vineland resident, walked into the college's Frank Guaracini Jr. Fine and Performing Arts Center. The stress of witnessing the start of a Boy Scouts award ceremony for the college's president, Kenneth Ender, was so intense that he broke out in cold sweat, Brandon said.

Because the Boy Scouts want to imbue young people with a deep faith in God, Perry said, atheists would not be able to meet the organization's goals. And people who openly profess anything other than heterosexual orientation are not the role models the Boy Scouts want for its members, he said.

Way to go, Perry! Get back in their faces and fight for what is right.

One would think this Ender dude, a former Eagle Scout, would show some backbone. For him to believe this issue needs to be debated is absurd. Makes me wonder if he's gay.

"The (U.S.) Supreme Court said the Boy Scouts have the right to discriminate," Brandon said. "But that doesn't mean an institution that receives state and federal funding should open their doors to them."

"If you select to discriminate against one organization because of its viewpoint," he said, "you must do the same to all organizations with a viewpoint."

College is a place to exchange ideas for all, not just some. I believe they have a Catch 22 here.

Our young boys must be protected from this assault. Sadly, the gays are expert at picking out the young and vulnerable to "groom".

The reason this guy broke into a cold sweat is because he knows what he is doing is wrong!

Banning the boy Scouts from the college campus would open a can or worms that would close the college's facilities to a wide range or organizations, Perry said.

Yup.

If the framers could see this now.

These types are constantly accusing conservative of hate because we don't like their lifestyle. But their hate of God and the family dwarfs anything they think we feel.

I think they are projecting. I think they are "hate groups".

A 36 year old homosexual witnesses the potential for a new crop of victims. No wonder he broke into a cold sweat.

Probably also licking his...chops.

Oh for crying out loud!   Over-react much Brandon?!  Regardless of his sexual "preference", this dude's a dweeb.

What? Are they queer homosexual too?

........G.Mason, realizing his shameful outburst caused discontent and turmoil to the family of man, hung his head and quietly slunk off the FR podium.

All people discriminate. All organizations discriminate. Discrimination is part of life. What gays and liberals want is not an end to discrimination, but and end to discrimination against them. Gays have their own forms of discrimination, but that's not written about too much.

When the Supreme Court sobered up enough to declare the Boy Scouts a private organization that could discriminate in its membership they recognized that there is a legal basis for discrimination.

But, knowing the flaky nature of the High Court all of that could change tomorrow.

That the whole world gets reorganized for a bunch of queers is wrong.

Is the "victim" even connected to the college?

he broke out in cold sweat

Probably the same reaction a young boy would have when he realizes that he's camped out in the woods with an eagle scout that's behind him all the way ... in a manner of speaking.

Notice that all these anti-Christian actions are tied to the fact that the promoting institutions accept federal money. Anytime an organization accepts a federal handout, they willingly put their head into the noose, and survive only by the hangman's grace.

The next time one of you conservative men breaks out in a cold sweat because a gay man has acted in a "forward" manner, please do me a favor and sue for mental stress or whatever. Why is all the suing in America coming from the left? Can't we turn it around on them?

Both the federal and state governments discriminate, should their money be refused?
