Scout's honour goes to the rainbow crowd
Openly gay youths will be allowed to join scouting, a historic decision the Boy Scouts of America says will keep it unclouded by "a single, divisive, and unresolved societal issue." More than 60% of the group's 1,400-member national council have voted at an annual meeting in Grapevine, Texas, for the change, which takes effect next year. "No youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone," says the resolution. This is a historic step forward, but unfortunately, the new policy does not go far enough, leaving adult Eagle Scouts, scout leaders, and parents behind. There is always something that can be done better. No matter how good you think your idea is, it can always be made better - unless, of course, it's Gangnam Style. Gangnam Style and PSY's latest hit, Gentleman, have almost two billion combined views. Click here and/or here to help bring two of the best songs in the world closer to the big 2 billion.
