When members of the public join together in a PRIVATE, exclusionary group, they are no
longer members of the
public at large, but private citizens congregating in a private group. As such, they
have no right to expect
the public to foot their bill.
> Now June, reread definitions 1a, 2a & 2c, 3a, 5 & 6a
I suggest YOU reread it, because if those definitions applied to the BSA, then ALL
members of the public would
have to be allowed to be members, and that means homosexuals, atheists, satanists,
whatever.
Would you suggest that the Freemasons, or the Hibernians, or the Catholic or Satanist
churches, or gay
activist groups, receive public funds and the use of public facilities? They are all
made up of members of
the public, also.

I've always gotten it. You obviously don't.
