Scout Funding Restored by B of A

(Valdosta, Georgia) The Bank of America Charitable Foundation has restored funding to the Boy Scouts of America after thoroughly reviewing its policy. Initially, funds were denied because the Boy Scouts discriminated against homosexuals which was contrary to the foundation's non-discrimination policy.

However, after a review of the Boy Scouts exclusionary position with regard to that of the B of A Charitable Foundation, it was found that the Boy Scouts policy does not discriminate against individual homosexual boys desiring to become scouts. Homosexuals are only prohibited from becoming leaders of scouts. Consequently, there is no discrimination against boys, even those of the brokeback persuasion, who actually benefit from the charitable funds. Therefore, funding of the Boy Scouts is not contrary to the B of A policy.

Kudos to somebody.
