Carefully vetted, I hope.

Alternatively become a BBC Radio disc jockey.

The files on 1900 leaders are useless, as they do not chart abuse. All gays so identified are included as perverts.

Ellensburg Case
One file is about a scoutmaster form Ellensburg who was outsted from Scouting in 1974 after the organization had collected evidence he was gay. A memorandum from a Scout Executive in Yakima to the organization's Registration and Subscription Executive at BSA headquarters in Texas explains they'd "become aware of a suspected moral problem" with (the Scout leader). The Yakima executive recieved information that the man had previously been discharged as a Scouting camp counselor "on suspicion of homosexuality." The Scouts continued to build their case in the file by obtaining "proof" of their suspicion. The record is a four page letter handwritten by the scoutmaster where he confides to a friend, "Yes, I am gay (homosexual)". It's unclear from the file how BSA obtained the letter. The following month BSA leaders in Texas completed their file with a lifetime ban on the scoutmaster. Their "Confidential Record Sheet" lists one reason for the move: "homosexuality".

Kicking someone out in 1974 because he is gay is perhaps understandable, since those were more barbaric times. I wonder if it would still happen?

Chacun a son gout, as they say in France.

(I believe it means "The pig has gout.")

The pig's gout is a very good reason to put it out of its misery and convert it to tasty pork. To each his own taste, and mine is pork (accompanied by a nice Shiraz, of course.).

Je te remercie. Which, I believe, means "Blind Groper, please have mercy" - which is what the pig says when you come for his bacon.

Have you ever known a merciful groper?
Nah, the groper simply opens its enormous mouth and swallows it down.
