Edited sentence: Boy Scouts of America, the BSA claimed that it was a religious organization, and therefore exempt from the law under the First Amendment.Despite the fact that the article repeatedly supported its claims with false statements, it was posted on the website , which apparently is a website run by the BSA, indicating that this libel was condoned by the BSA.However, after preferential treatment for them in San Diego was challenged, the BSA, in contradiction with their position in new Jersey, asserted that it was not a religious organization, and that there were therefore no constitutional barriers to preferential treatment.In the case of Dale v.They also published an article by Mark Pulliam, a lawyer involved in Scouting, attacking the ACLU, atheists, gays, and the presiding judge in the aforementioned case, accusing them of being “mean-spirited”, “extremist”, anti-Christian, opposed to the First Amendment, and bigoted, and trying to link them to the KKK, Nazis, child molesters, drug dealers, and “Big Brother” of  1984.While the BSA has managed to create an image of honesty and respectfulness, in practice there are examples of them failing to exhibit a commitment to those values
