Oh, the irony.

Over two decades, the Boy Scouts of America failed to report hundreds of alleged child molesters to police and often hid the allegations from parents and the public.
A Los Angeles Times review of 1,600 confidential files dating from 1970 to 1991 has found that Scouting officials frequently urged admitted offenders to quietly resign — and helped many cover their tracks.
 
why are you surprised? and really, so what.

I am surprised because I keep hoping people will grow up or wise up. I keep thinking that the baseless hatred will die off. Silly of me, I know.

As for the "so what" part, If we allow it the haters will ruin people lives forever. We stand up and change things and they become the point of ridicule.
 
This isn't about hatred. This is about men and boys being alone together in tents for the weekend. The Scouts are right, gays don't belong in the Scouts. Save your indignation for an actual issue.

So what? Do you have any clue how hard it is to become an Eagle Scout? The dedication? The hard work? The commitment to both your community and learning? This is a complete and total discrace. It's none of their fucking business what this kids sexual orientation is. If he's met the standards and done the work to be denied this award based on his sexual orientation is just plain bigotry.
 
The Navy Song:

Men, Men, Men, Men.
Men, Men, Men, Men.
There's men above,
There's men below,
There's men in the galley.
There Bob and Tom,
and Steve and Joe,
and even one called Sally!
 
Oh, the irony.

I thought homos weren't allowed in the Boy Scouts?
 
but married guys like that fucking coach do what with little boys in the shower?
What don't you understand about pedophilia...you're confused. If we were to talk about pedophiles realistically then I'd have to say MOST pedophiles are married, white men.
