Rollie, Adam, and I are former Scouts (well, I wasn't a Boy Scout, but you know what I mean) so when we heard that the Boy Scouts, in a closed-door meeting, voted unanimously to uphold their ban on gay Scouts and leaders, we were absolutely floored. One thing is for sure: None of what the Boy Scouts stand for matters as much as the fact that they're willing to ban gay boys. It's reprehensible.
