"2003: “Jesse James Jensen”, alt.politics (Google group): Liberal Bigots Will Call Her a “House Nigger”, the 3ʳᵈ day of November at 9:59pm We have a lot of wars to keep track of at the moment, but I’m pretty sure I would have remembered one against an out-moded Victorian-ethosed semi-religious woodland-based activity group. But you probably want to keep the Boy Scouts homo-free. As a private organization, it is their right to keep out the queers, but I don’t know why they’d want to; it was pretty common knowledge in my school that those outfits they had to wear were pretty gay."
