Please call your Senators, tell them to vote YES on the Helms Amendment. This is a bill that says schools that fail to allow the Boy Scouts to use their grounds, will be denied federal funding. I heard about this on the Dr. Laura radio show, you can go to her web site for more information. http://www.drlaura.com/ Please call to so your support for the Boy Scouts.
When they start passing laws to stop things like the Boy Scouts in Public buildings, then our laws aren't worth the paper there written on! United Way labled the Boy Scouts as a hate group and no longer contributes funds all because gays aren't allowed to be leaders. I know Im not perfect but I don't want a bunch of gay men taking my sons into the woods to teach them anything! I was raised with morals and surprisingly enough still have some in me today! Thank God for that.
Everyone on this site knows me as the President for IGT but I also oversee the entire Scouting operatiion in Union Ky. The Scouting program is the most worth while youth program out there and has been since 1910. Scouting is one of the last good teachings a young man gets before he enters the real world and it makes an impression on them that last throughout their life. If they want a gay lifestyle, then start the Gay scouts of America but don't tarnish the morals my parents and grand parents have past down to me.
My taxidermy Studio is very fortunate to employ and work with Eagle Scouts. They truly are the cream of the crop.
Please call your Senator about the Helms Amendment because this is worth fighting for.
I agree 100% Dave, there are certain things in life that do not have to play the politically correct game and besides me the Boy Scouts is one.
God Bless
considering in my area they never contributed to the Boy Scouts anyway even though they said they did. I know that for a fact as my father was a Boy Scout leader and he said he never received any money. However, when I was employed at a place where they came to get money taken out of our wages they bragged about all the noble causes they contributed too including the Boy Scouts.
KInd of makes you wonder doesn't it?
