Electrocution, illness, accidents. I think God is telling the Boy Scouts to stop being such a bunch of homophobic assholes.
i actualy have a good freind whos a lesbian..and wasa boy scout.. although the overall organization is currupt & backwards in theyre thinking.. there are some troops that are openminded
The scouts exist solely for the purpose of indoctrination into a militaristic culture. And as yet another haven for pedophiles.
You people astound me. Vinceneilsgirl is showing more of her repugnant mysanthrope by trying to belittle, excuse,and justify the deaths of innocent children.All you guys can do is argue about whether or not the Boyscouts should allow gay people in and bash SlutterMcGee. Apparently,I'm the only one that was more repulsed by the first post then anything that Slutter said. Poor kids.
If I recall being gay in Boy Scouts correctly, it's a much similar experience.... And yes, it's a private organization, but it's not a moral playground. Boy Scouts, if anything nowadays, is a breeding ground for bisexuals, stoners, and militant rebels. Of course there is the occasional success story. Some become enviornmentalists, and then others become corporate lawyers.
RE: What is the Boy Scouts? A Private Organization Should a private organization be allowed to desriminate because of sex, race, or gender? God I hope so Yeah, but if they're a private org. they shouldn't whine so much to get free time in STATE FUNDED buildings, e.g. schools, and presents from the military, also state funded. They wanna build their OWN buildings, carry their OWN weight and turn themselves into the Junior Hitler/Bush Youth, fine. But while they still want the right to the use of publicly funded space, they better get in league with the program in general. They can't exclude Jews, Blacks, or Gays. Gettit?
If there were ever enough people that were interested, I was gunna start the Socialist Scouts. They're a lot like the Boy Scouts except they have militant lesbians, transvestites, marijuana-growing classes, and illegal weapons and bomb manufacturers. Basically, it's all a big joke. Kind of like Discordianism. We'd pretend we were letting in international terrorists to perform a coup, but we're really not.
Towns and states want them to use the facility. It is the ACLU who has gone nuts trying to get them removed from all public places because they require scouts to believe in some higher being and that they dont allow openly gay scout leaders..
then I want the share of taxpayer dollars back from the scout jamborees that were funded publicly on public land they'll have to sell a shit load of gewgahs (sp?) to get the cash for that, something like 7 mil a year, it's been going for decades.....
did taxpayers fund their meetings????? do they fund the KKK's meetings? do taxpayers fund the catholic church? really, the boyscouts as a religious, private organization should not be publicly funded, should not get special favors from public coffers and should not recieve funds or assistance or even a place to meet without the exact same standards being met as other groups that are private and religious, they want to use a school? let them rent the space, shit let them pay a penny for a months rent for all I care, as long as the school isn't spending more than a penny to maintain it especially for them (resources, extra hours for employees, replaced props for the theatre program, that sort of thing) they deserve no special treatment because they are children, simple, clean cut, fair and elegant....
exactly. i remember being in the cub scouts when i was younger; with all the marching to and fro, taps and revili, raising and lowering the flags, the bb gun shooting range(i was a good shot:X ) and all that shit about god and morals and shit. like the hitler youth but without the aryan supremacy thing. im glad i got the fuck out back then.
They are a private org, they go by thier own rules. If the gov stopped funding they could come up with their own funding. hell, I'd donate a few bucks. public buildings should be open to all public service groups.
RE: They are a private org, they go by thier own rules. If the gov stopped funding they could come up with their own funding. hell, I'd donate a few bucks. public buildings should be open to all public service groups. Not religious ones. RE: First off, boy scouts embraces all religions. The notion that it is only for Christians is simply wrong. The only thing they reject, as far as religion goes, is Atheism. And homosexuality. For their intolerance, they should go COMPLETELY private. No public money. And meet in their own buildings which they can build with their OWN money.
Homosexuality is not a religion irongoth. It's [boy scouts] a public service group, so whether religous or not if the majority of the people support it then they should be able to use public buildings. They could easily go on thier own money.
well, when you have sons you can send em campin with professed buttfuckers - me, i like the fact that i can trust my boys gone for the weekend. i don't want ANYONE of ANY sexual preference discussing sex or their exploits around or with my boys without my explicit permission. that's not what scouting is for. we have public school for that. so glad to see that the death of children pleases you and supports your vision of the world.... not. from the BSA site - Boy Scouts of America Sustained By United States Supreme Court: We believe an avowed homosexual is not a role model for the values espoused in the Scout Oath and Law. Boy Scouting makes no effort to discover the sexual orientation of any person. Scouting's message is compromised when prospective leaders present themselves as role models inconsistent with Boy Scouting's understanding of the Scout Oath and Law. as a scout leader myself, it would be completely inappropriate to avow (To acknowledge openly, boldly, and unashamedly; confess) my sexual experiences and preferences also. if'n they (homosexuals) do not present their sexual proclivities to the boys, then nobody does an inquisition.
the schools ASK us to be there usually - not the other way around. we don't 'whine' to get space, it's voluntarily donated by those who WANT us there. since the whole program is run by volunteers, it's not like the scouts could flourish in places where people don't want it and don't put forth the effort to make it happen - through donations of time, effort, money and space.
