California is going to pry into their judges private lives, and may bar them from being Boy Scouts, reports the AP.
SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) -- The California Supreme Court is considering prohibiting state judges from being members of the Boy Scouts because of its refusal to admit gays, the chief justice said.The Boy Scouts refusal to admit gays has been upheld by the SCOTUS, and is similar to Augusta National's refusal to admit women.
Personally, I have nothing against homosexuals, but I am a strong believer in freedom of association. I can also understand their reluctance to make kids bunk and camp together if some of them may be gay. Basically, if they don't want to admit gays, they shouldn't have to. They also shouldn't be publically pressured to do so.
