[Winona Online Democracy] Interesting discussions these last few days. I guess I will add my two cents to the fray. I think they are both right. If the Boy Scouts don't won't homosexuals to be the role models for their sons, I say "More power to them." The Supreme Court agrees with them. However, there is a price to be paid. If the United Way has a policy that prevents them from given money to any group that discriminates, for any reason, "More power to them. It's their money." If you don't agree with their policy, don't give them your money. If the Boy Scouts, or any other group wants money from an organization (govenmental or otherwise), they must play by that organizations rules. However, to associate the Boy Scouts with the KKK, I think is a little extreme. Any privately-funded group should be able to associate with whomever they desire. If I formed a group, I certainly wouldn't want the government to tell me who I must, or must not admit as members. That is, unless I am asking the government to support me. In that case I have to compromise. ============================== Michael Walter [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.luminet.net/~mwalter/index.htm ============================== You are forced to age.
