U.S. Launches Homophobic Anti-Gay Boy Scout Movement ‘Trail Life USA’ [View all]

Creatures! Just what we need in the US, another hate group, this one indoctrinating children in the art of hatred and persecution!

An anti-gay Christian Scouting movement has just been launched in the U.S. Called Trail Life USA, the faith-based group has been specifically formed to denounce the May 2013 decision of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) when it overturned a ban to allow young boy gays and homosexuals to join its programs.
