What about gay kids? I don't think I've ever heard their stance on gay children.

They really shot both feet off with that throughout the past few years. I have a feeling the change of heart has more to do with a last stitch effort to save face rather than actual support for the gay community.

From that same article:

Quote:

The BSA voted to end a ban on allowing open gay boys to become scouts in 2013.

There's no doubt about that. Whatever the intent, it's still good news.

good to hear the boy scouts of america have finally come to terms with their gayness

but the fight for equality is far from over in this country. sadly enough, gay men are still banned from joining the girl scouts of america.

The Batlord 07-13-2015 04:21 PM

Oh but they're not letting gay girls in? Sexism.

What about girls who don't give a **** about cookies and want to join boy scouts instead? Where is their justice?

Frownland 07-13-2015 04:23 PM

You think boy scouts give two ****s about candy bars?

simplephysics 07-13-2015 04:26 PM

I guess Girl Scouts are much more efficient at pushing product because I've never been approached by a Boy Scout trying to sell me candy bars.
