MORALLY STRAIGHT VS BACKPACKING

THE BOY SCOUT OATH

On my honor I will do my best, to do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law; To help other people at all times;

To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.
 
morally straight...

it sez it right there, right in the oath

well, no more - the backers have won

- the backers of the backpackers

by a wide, gaping margin

the boy scouts are now homoacceptant and homoreceptive

after a lengthy and gut wrenching debate

local leaders of the boy scouts of america

have voted to open their ranks to openly gay boys

to don't ask and don't tell and for some

run like hell

however, the scouts' longstanding ban on gay adults remains

butt why

doesn't equality mean that all can join - convicted or not

meanwhile, many conservatives within the scouts are

distraught at the outcome of the vote and have created

a huge backlash to the future backpacking scouts

some are threatening to defect the scouts for breaking

the boy scout oath, the oath that said they will stay straight

- what part of morally straight don't they get
 
a meeting is planned for early next month to discuss
 
the formation of a new organization for boys

one that will not only scout but hunt down and kill

and one that won't award a backpacking merit badge
 
(i assume)
 
IN OTHER NEWS AND NO SURPRISE TO ANYBODY THE NBC PEACOCK TODAY
- ON THE TODAY SHOW NO LESS, CAME OUT AS BEING GAY.
