Boy Scouts may lift ban on Gay leaders

The Boy Scouts of America announced it may lift its' ban on gay members on Monday.

"This would mean there would no longer be any national policy regarding sexual orientation, and the chartered organizations that oversee and deliver Scouting would accept membership and select leaders consistent with each organizations mission, principles, or religious beliefs," said Boys of America spokesman Deron Smith.

The organization has been the target of controversy due to reports of child abuse and its' refusal to allow gay members.
