Not sure if you're referring to the Boy Scouts in America or the UK Scouts. If the UK Scouts are a private organization, then yeah that's fine even if I think it's immoral. However, while the Boy Scouts of America are 'technically' a private organization, they get huge discounts from the government for land usage (sometimes getting use of public land for free), and using public buildings on the cheap over other groups that would have to pay to use them. It's kind of a dickish situation.
