It is still open to "All boys" who live up to its code of conduct. And believe in God. That has not changed. This is not about boys allowed to join but the right to keep the homos away from them. Does the Bizzaro City Council have the right to tell them that atheists can't be excluded as members?

It was you who tried to distinguish between municipal policies and government policies. Not me.

Municipalities are not allowed to discriminate based on religious belief as Bizarro does in this case.

You can argue with the guy who pays their dues not me. You just tried to make him out to be a liar and were called on it.

The marina has a discriminatory pricing policy based on religious conviction. It will be overturned.

These concepts are not unrelated though you may try and pretend they are. Those opposed to the BSA are the same dimbulbs opposed to the war against Saddam, hate the military, hate Bush,hate capitalism, hate America. Those for the BSA are the same as the patriots who want to kick Saddam out, fight our enemies (foreign and domestic), hate Clinton and love America. It really isn't hard to comprehend.

Those attacking the BSA booed them at the DemocRATic Convention probably some of the very same people. They would boo the flag and spit on the military just as happily.

Since you mention this, I thought you might be interested in hearing some details. I corresponded with a Scouter who was present when this incident occurred. The people who were booing the Scouts while they were (at the invitation of the DNC) performing a flag presentation were a small minority of one state's delegation (California). The Scouter in question was near the stage. Only those near the state were aware of this, and even the Scouts on stage were unaware. It happened, but it was not something that had support from any group there.
