Were the Boy Scouts right to keep excluding gays?

    Yes they are right, it's in there core princables, i meen realy if you want gay people in the boy scout's then start your own club. It's that simple, why should they lay down there beliefs, they don't want gay's in there organization. If you don't like it start your own boys club !

    I think there is a reality and to pretend that there isn't serves no one. I certainly am not a homophobe and count several gay men among my good aquaintances. We just have to look to the Catholic church scandals. It is sad, but true, a few bad apples spoil the whole cart and it is our duty to protect our children. My heart goes out to the poor little boys who have been abused

    campin&fishin,

    What does the Sandusky mess or Rob Lopicola have to do with gays in the boy scouts? It doesn't mean Sandusky is gay. Perverted, yes, gay,no. I would rather my child be around and led by a good gay man than around Sandusky and his ilk.

    Wow. Thought those days were behind us. BoA should take a good long look at where the rest of the country is & recognize it's paranoia.

    Nice try Lawrence.
    Did Sandusky's victims & their families have homophobia?
    Did Rob Lopicola's victims & their families have homophobia?

    Better safe than sorry when it comes to children & families.

    The Boy Scouts of America will become the last bastion for homophobia and they are the lesser for it. Is there some place I can return my Eagle Scout badge?
