Commie California Senate Votes To Revoke Boy Scouts’ Nonprofit Status Despite Group Lifting Ban On Gay Scouts…


They actually took it a step further and want to revoke the nonprofit status for all religious youth groups in the state.

Via SacBee:

Even as the Boy Scouts of America moves to allow gay youths to join its troops, the California Senate on Wednesday passed a bill that would revoke the organization’s nonprofit status because it does not permit the participation of openly gay adults.

“They are out of line with the values of California and should be ineligible for a tax benefit paid for by all Californians,” Sen. Ricardo Lara, D-Bell Gardens, said as he introduced his bill. “SB 323 brings our laws into line with our values.”

The measure calls for revoking the tax-exempt status of youth groups that discriminate against participants on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identification.

While the text of the bill does not specifically mention the Boy Scouts, analyses of the legislation and discussion among senators Wednesday made clear that it targets the organization.

“We’ve given the Boy Scouts ample time to solve their discrimination problem. And they’ve chosen a path that still leads to discrimination,” Lara said of the organization’s recent vote to allow participation by gay youths.

what's funny is that the libertarians, republicans and tea partiers are portrayed as the violent monsters and yet our demonstrations are peaceful and respectful of the grounds where they are held. In contrast, the liberals, progressives and democrats are consistently violent and deface the grounds where they are held.

It's obvious where the violence will originate, and it isn't on the right.

Adam Kokesh, a pro-gun activist and libertarian radio host who attracted scrutiny earlier this month for calling his supporters to march on Washington, D.C. with illegally displayed firearms, has decided that such a demonstration isn't sufficient. In a statement released last week, Kokesh ramped up his calls for action, urging supporters to take part in a "new American revolution" at state capitols nationwide on July 4.

Praise God.......let this be true. May he start with SC please....then Arkansas..........for inode's sanity.

I think it's time for the Feds to lock some of these right-wing secessionist kooks up. Especially the heavily armed ones. They're guilty of sedition, condemned by their own mouths.
