I would hope that BSA revokes the leadership positions bestowed to those in Vermont who are trying to hijack the Vermont BSA state organization.
Vermont Chapter of what? Shut ‘em down, disband the troops and make them re-apply for their charter—conforming to the BSA standards.
Why don’t the gays start their own scouting organization? Come to think of it, why don’t they start their own chain of chicken restaurants as well, rather than trying to force their opinion on others.
Might as well set their own standards for what an Eagle Scout is, and give out merit badges for whatever else they choose too.
Though unpalatable to the unfettered will of moderns, male attractions toward other males are not genetically, environmentally, nor evolutionarily determined anymore than are adultery, cheating on tests, hatred, and status-seeking.
All of these are emotions, appetites, and other such compulsions and impulses.
Anyone who rationalizes the normalization and social and legal acceptance of emotions, appetites, etc., is attempting to force his/her dishonesty, selfishness, and disordered passions onto other people.
Gays can already be Scouts. One of my Scouts says he is gay.
Saying it doesn’t make it true though.
The article doesn't explain how the Green Mountain Council pulled off that stunt. They created a policy that allows gay scouts and leaders without going against the national BSA's policy that bans gay scouts and leaders?
That ought to put a damper on the annual Bromley Ski Weekend.
Someone should hold them responsible when a homosexual, like Jerry Sandusky, molests a boy.
Its simple...remove their charter.
Names names names.....then, when the lawsuits start coming from the boys who get molested, the lawyers know where to look for the money.
Does the Vermont chapter of Girl Scouts allow heterosexual men to be scout leaders, going out with young women in the woods?
Up front let me say that I am in Vermont and a scoutmaster, and yes this state is a socialist hell hole.
This report comes from the ‘gay star news’- seriously people do you think that any drivel that comes from this source should be taken seriously, they can’t even get the name of the BSA council correct. The Onion is more reliable.
I got the letter from the Green mountain council stating that there is no change to the standing policy. The one that has been in place since 2001 after the Supreme court ruled in favor of the BSA. It does reaffirm that there is a non discrimination policy in place, just as national. It goes on to further state that if the BSA stance is a ‘deal breaker’ for the youth so be it. The Green Mountain Council will follow the National BSA charter.
This is an attempt by the homosexual lobby to make it look like they are making progress while in reality they are loosing ground ( see Chic Fil A). Homosexual will lie if they think in benefits there cause. Never trust anything from a Homosexual group- period.
So lesbians can become Boy Scouts now. Learn something ever’ day, I tells ya.
Vermont new motto Live LGBT or Die.
BSA ought to just expire that chapter’s membership.
Either you’re part of the organization and follow the standards, or you become your own organization.
Hey, *let* there be a sodomite scouts. See how many parents let their kids go.
If they keep quiet about it and behave themselves, no one will know that they are afflicted. They’ll be able to participate.
HOMOSEXUAL, because there’s nothing GAY about it.
Homosexual scout leaders ... what could possibly go wrong?
