Chuck Norris believes gay people have NO PLACE in the Boy Scouts of America ... and claims plans to overturn the "century-old policy" to ban them is simply un-American.Chuck -- an outspoken Republican political activist -- just penned an article for AmmoLand.com ... titled, "Is Obama Creating a Pro-Gay Boy Scouts of America?"
In the article, Norris attacks James Turley -- a high ranking BSA official who recently announced his plan to "seek a change" to a Boy Scouts policy that bans gay Scouts and gay Scout leaders.
72-year-old Norris suggests Turley is only championing the cause because he's trying to curry favor with Obama's "pro-gay" administration.

I considered his teevee show with laid-on-with-a-trowel machismo and extra-judicial punishment...

I just find it mind boggling that Chuck was such a good friend of Bruce Lee.

If Bruce Lee hadn't died, Norris' career would have been nothing but playing the bad guy with a cheesy porn star mustache!

of the fight in Return of the Dragon, IIRC. The funny thing is that in a shoot (real) fight Bruce Lee could have killed Norris stone dead in about thirty seconds without even breaking a sweat.

he's toooooooo old to be a boy scout so he shouldn't worry about it.

I'll give him this much though, Chuckie is at least consistent. - he's always an asshole.
