I second that. We recently had a fight in Philadelphia over that issue. BSA was getting city property to use cheap, but lost it when they wouldn't accept gays.
I have a similar problem with the Salvation Army.

I can hear a lot of you guys blowing a gasket over this, but I'm serious. My wife and I have a lot of gay friends who are some of the best folks you could ever want to know and the discrimination has to stop.
