Sides Spar Over Gay Boy Scouts and Leaders

The debate continues over a decision by the Boy Scouts of America to exclude gay people from leadership positions. Now there is a petition to try and change that policy.

Zach Wahls, an Eagle Scout with two lesbian mothers, is the founder of Scouts for Equality and says he already has 130,000 signatures for the petition.

"Six hundred Eagle Scouts have spoken out against this policy to try and actually put an end to the policy of exclusion by the Boy Scouts of America" he says.

Ok. Just let them form a gay scouting branch. They could a go skipping through the woods together. Don't worry, they won't get lost because they'll be holding hands. For God's sake keep the liberal bullship out of the scouting program.

Zach, NOBODY can have two mothers; it's physically impossible! Why don't you and your two fake "mothers" take the 130,000 names in your list and use it for the sign up sheet for your own Gayboy Scouter's Patrol Club and leave the BSA alone.

Now, off with you!

Zach, you aren't wanted and queers aren't wanted in the Boy Scouts. Go get a life and find some friends to play with that will tolerate you. You can all go to lunch at Chick-Fil-A.

NO homosexuals in the scouting or any other program that trains our children to be good, loyal, moral, leaders filled with integrity. enough is enough. parents for the love of your children and the love of God speak loud and clear now and don't let up.

Jerry Sandusky is still settling into his cell...and these morons want folks who are not secret about their behaviors to be placed into positions of authority? Let's get real!

They should linkup with the Rainbow Girls and become the Rainbow Boys! Donuts and cookies are already spoken for as fundraisers but fruitcakes are still up for grabs.

The first gay boy scout unit should originate in Fruitland. Mayor Jim can be scoutmaster.

My god it's sad to see you prejudiced hicks up in arms now that your bigoted views are being challenged. (And yes, I put god in lowercase, because there is no God).

2:06 one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess there is a God. And his Son is named Jesus. Like it or not.

Why so sad, fag? As usual, your types have got it backwards...hmmm, no, I won't go with the joke here.

Our so called 'views' are not being challenged my dear sweet boy. If anything, they are being validated and strengthened.

You brought everyone's attention to the fact that you did not capitalize God, because you feel there is no God.

The funny part, other than your childish rant as a whole, is the fact that you did capitalize God at the end of your desperate attempt to be offensive.

Off to bed you go now. Maybe the girl scouts will let you join their little group.

Or, maybe you and Zach can hook up and start your own little group of misfits, since no one else wants either of you.

Remember, a scout is always prepared. So keep that tube of KY in your pocket. You just never know when love will find you.
