Broward County in Florida is debating right now whether to allow Boy Scouts
to continue to meet in their schools. "No matter what they decide, Till and
some board members said they do not plan to back off exactly what the Scouts
challenged in federal court this year: the district's insistence that some
groups meeting in schools not discriminate based on sexual orientation." I
see that as saying that it is OK for some groups to discriminate, but not
others. Perhaps you can ask Broward County if there really are other groups
that discriminate based on sexual orientation, and why it is tolerable for
them to do it but not the Boy Scouts.

The assault has the South Florida Council, Boy Scouts of America, fearing
for the very survival of its programs. "If you're not allowed to meet in
public schools, if you're not allowed to use city facilities, if you're not
allowed to raise money, it's kind of tough to have a program for children,"
said Jeffrie Herrmann, Scout executive.

You might want to ask some of your gay friends just how far they are willing
to go to destroy the Boy Scouts. If they are not allowed to meet in public
schools (as in South Florida) or in fire stations (as in Chicago), how long
will it be before they are not allowed to meet in recreation centers in
public parks? And from there, how long will it be that they will not be
allowed in the public parks at all?
