There are some that unlike you puffed up and have made a knee jerk reaction and quit BSA.
The chartered institution must make the decision to leave BSA and flounder or stick it out and see how things progress. You will be told that there are other organizations being formed blah blah but that is pie in the sky.
If you have a good solid troop with strong leadership jumping off the horse into the river is a poor choice
My Son pulled him self out if Scouts. His reason, "How can a scout be morally straight and be gay?" He has zero interest in being the next tent mate for a gay scout. His troop will likely not have a gay scout, or gay leader in the near future, but he is stuck on his moral values and I am not going to change his mind. (by the way he is 12 and loved scouts)
BSA has a hard enough time controlling perverts, even with the mandatory youth protection classes we all have had to take. It will only get worse in the future.
I’m not “puffed up” nor did I react in a “knee jerk” fashion.
The BSA doubled down on stupid, in the face of OVERWHELMING opposition to the change. They are the ones who told the rest of us to conform to their values or we’re welcome to leave.
So, we’re leaving...your constant bashing of FReepers over this topic tells me that courteous, kind and friendly, even towards those who hold opposing views to yours, are values that appear to have missed their mark with you.
The BSA rejected social conservatism, Duty to God, morally straight and clean in the name of political correctness, aka cultural marxism. Any conservative worth their salt knows what to do with this, reject it out of hand. To continue to expose our children to this dogma is a danger and a failure to exercise proper authority and responsibility to our charges.
That you continue to bash FReeper Scouters who are leaving or who are troubled and in dire dilemmas over this decision says alot. And it ain’t good.
