Oh yeah, you liberals hate Boy Scouts don't you?

They discriminated by not allowing a young childless gay guy in NJ be a scout leader. Democrats actually booed them at one of the Democratic conventions.

The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that the Boy Scouts of America can bar homosexuals from being troop leaders.

The justices by a 5-4 vote overturned a New Jersey Supreme Court ruling that the dismissal of a gay Scout leader had been illegal under the state's anti-discrimination law.

The Boy Scouts, which also exclude atheists and agnostics as leaders, said it has the right to decide who can join its ranks.

Forcing it to accept gays would violate its constitutional right of freedom of association and free speech under the First Amendment, it said.


And theres that morally upright stuff in their oath that you guys probably object to also.
