A Boy Scouts sailing group that lost free use of a public boat slip failed to persuade the Supreme Court to take its case. The justices on Monday let stand a unanimous California Supreme Court ruling that the city of Berkeley may treat the Berkeley Sea Scouts differently from other nonprofits because the Scouts bar atheists and gays. The leader of the Sea Scouts had argued that forcing the group to pay for a berth at the marina violated the group's free speech and freedom of association rights.
