Huffington Post: Boy Scouts Of America Consider Dropping Ban On Gay Members And Participants: Report

"The chartered organizations that oversee and deliver scouting would accept membership and select leaders consistent with their organization's mission, principles or religious beliefs," BSA spokesman Deron Smith tells the site, adding that individual sponsors and parents "would be able to choose a local unit which best meets the needs of their families."
