WATCH: No honor in Boy Scouts' discrimination

Being married to an Eagle Scout is a wonderful thing. My husband can make fire in minutes and build a shelter for two with a rock, some dried leaves and an armful of sticks! And he’ll even recite the Boy Scout oath for people…without being prompted. That is scouting at its best. It grooms young men to be good citizens and leaders. So you can imagine my excitement this past Monday when the Boy Scouts of America announced they may do away with their sexual orientation restriction…sort of. Which is why my letter this week is to Chief Scout Executive Wayne Brock.
