Then the BSA and its homophobe supporters should stop their own sniveling when various
public agencies decide
to no longer allow the BSA to utilize public facilities (such as public schools) for
its meetings, or when the
United Way decides to cut funding, due to the BSA's exclusionary policies.
As a private organization, the BSA can do whatever it wants, and that is fine. They
just can't expect me and
other U.S. citizens as taxpayers to help fund it.

When they get the free use of public facilities, such as public schools, then it costs
the public money.
If they wish to continue to utilize public facilities for their meetings, let them pay
rent like other PRIVATE
organizations do.

The 'aforementioned' groups would not be barred from using public facilities for free
if they were not
exclusionary.

If the BSA has a parade permit, they have as much right to march down Main Street as
any other group who is
granted a parade permit. But we are not talking about a parade once a year. We're
talking allowing the BSA
to hold weekly meetings in local schools, and the long whining that is arising over
the fact that certain
municipalities are now denying the BSA the free use of local public schools to hold
their weekly meetings.

You got it.

Whatever slant/rant I have is not 'lesbian/home', since I'm straight...
But it's par for the course for homophobes like you to label everyone who disagrees
with you as 'one of
them'...
> To disagree means I'm afraid, paraniod and cowering of homosexual men!
No, in your case it just means you haven't come out of the closet yet.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
