Gay den mother asks Scouts for post back
IRVING, Texas -- An Ohio woman ousted as a den mother because she is a lesbian has delivered a petition with 300,000 signatures to the Boy Scouts of America headquarters, urging the organization to reinstate her.
Jennifer Tyrrell also wants the group to abandon its policy of excluding gays, which it reaffirmed Tuesday.
Tyrrell, from Bridgeport, Ohio, wore a tan Scout uniform as she arrived yesterday at the Boy Scouts national offices in Irving with her partner and two children, including a 7-year-old Cub Scout.
Tyrrell had a private meeting with representatives of the 102-year-old organization. She presented the same petitions in May at the Scouts' convention in Orlando, Fla. -- AP
