Maryland Rep. wants public money for Boy Scout tuition |
This clown tried and failed last year (but that bill was for
full tution; this one is $2,000/year up to 5 years for tution).
The bill last year died because the finance committee said it
would cost too much.
The bill is here (PDF):
http://mlis.state.md.us/2006rs/bills/hb/hb1303f.pdf
Basically, he wants a special, publically-funded college tution
that only Boy and Girl Scouts can receive, and since atheists
can't be Boy Scouts, and boy atheists can't be Girl Scouts, an
atheist boy can't qualify for this publically-financed scholarship
program in any way. $200,000 per year.
It's notable that there are only 3 sponsors of the bill, as
opposed to a dozen or so last time.

[sigh] Christians hate America.
