Lean-to skills may soon pay off: May 31st deadline nears for Philadelphia Boyscouts’ eviction May 7, 2008

…
The Philadelphia Inquirer has written an article reminding us that May 31 is the deadline for the eviction of the Boy Scout Headquarters that the city of Philadelphia has set, based on a long standing battle.
To quote the Inquirer:
Can the Boy Scouts - specifically, the Philadelphia area’s 69,000-member Cradle of Liberty Council - bar openly homosexual people and atheists from membership?
The U.S. Supreme Court says yes.
Can Philadelphia city officials allow a private organization that discriminates to freely use public, taxpayer-supported property?
The U.S. Supreme Court says no.
