The Supreme Court is confronting emotional issues of free speech and
homosexuality in deciding whether the Boy Scouts can bar gays from serving

After hearing arguments today, the last day of oral arguments in the
current term, the justices will decide by July whether the Scouts had a
constitutional right to oust a troop leader after learning he is
homosexual.
