The Boy Scouts of America has taken a stand on its beliefs. In America, that has been good enough in the past to be left alone. Now, because the gay community is pushing so hard to be accepted, the constitutional rights of the BSA are being undermined.
The gay people have the right under the law of this country to exist and live their way of life. People who do not accept their way of life are to leave them alone and allow them freedom to live. But this gay community needs to understand that different beliefs have the same rights to practice what they believe. As such, I would ask the gay folks to stop pushing their agenda on the Boys Scouts and stop attempting to take their constitutional freedom from BSA. The Scouts already have said what they would accept and refute.
The gay community should live as they believe and the Scouts should be free to live and exist as they believe. It is called America and no one should forget we live under the Constitution of the United States.
