Boy Scouts of America vs. Dale

Boy Scouts of America et al. v. Dale No. 99-699 Argued April 26, 200- Decided June 28, 2000 In order to explain this court case and why it is so important, it is necessary to look at the history behind it. In July of 1990 James Dale an assistant scoutmaster, and Boy Scout since age eight, was informed that his adult membership to the Boy Scouts of America had been revoked.

…showed last 75 words of 895 total…it disturbed me. The fact that our Supreme Court supports the decision to support and uphold any particular organization’s views, even if they are clearly discriminatory, and prejudice is an indication that freedom for all is not one of our inalienable rights anymore. I believe that this conservatively supported ruling supports a political ideal that is far from progressive and is certain to make the rights of all dependent on the opinions of few.
