Secrecy, Heavy-Handed Tactics Reported at Boy Scouts Meeting

“The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.

Scout Oath

On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.

Scout Law

A Scout is:
Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful,
Friendly, Courteous, Kind,
Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty,
Brave, Clean, Reverent”

Ahh... Morally straight. Not sure if that meant the same thing 100 years ago.

So if I understand correctly, they want to change morally straight to “Fabulous.”

2 other states are also trying to adopt this law.

Do you know which two?

A boy doesn’t have the skills to know whether he is gay or not . . .

Exactly correct. The best an adult recruiter can hope for is to confuse him about his sexuality, then lead him step by step into deviancy.

Boy Scouts provided an avenue to turn young boys into young men by teaching them useful skills which didn't delve into sexuality issues other than the "morally straight" part of the scout code. An avenue which, unfortunately, has just been narrowed by this compromise with evil.

Once upon a time, as a scout leader, I had one boy announce he was gay for exactly the reason you mentioned. I made the comment that he would do his body far less damage if he took up bathing in septic tanks. He laughed, told me he just wanted to see my reaction, and never brought the topic up again.

“causing conservatives to abandon the organization. This leaves it in the hands of the radicals”

If this would have happened back when I was a scout, we would not have abandoned the organization. We would have created a climate where the gay scouts would want to abandon, if you get my drift.

" A boy doesn't have the skills to know whether he is gay or not."

Exactly correct. That is why scouting serves as a recruiting ground. Their motto has been "in by 8 or its too late." Sick......

A much better tactic than abandoning the organization to libtards, if you get my drift.

Guerrilla warfare is what troops need to pursue now to prevent wholesale destruction of a once fine organization. Announce that gay scouts are welcome to join, but they still have to keep the "morally straight" part of the scout oath, same as anyone else. Just as a heterosexual youth can't tent up with his girlfriend, neither can a homosexual youth do the same with his boy friend. And since no boy in their right mind would want to share a tent with a self-declared rump ranger, this will mean that he'll be camping alone.

What blew my mind was the mormon church - which has nearly 30% of all chartered troops is just fine with this.

The same church that was behind Prop 8 in Califlower.

So, Gay marriage bad, gay kids OK?

I think they lost their bible or whatever....

From the bottom of that NY Times article:

“Similar bills have been introduced in New Jersey and Massachusetts, according to Wayne Besen, executive director of Truth Wins Out, a gay rights group based in Vermont.”

if you put your boys into the scouts...
and they get molested...

YOU should be arrested for willful child endangerment

same with the entire upper echelon of BSA

[Yosemitest]

From the article:

"Reports are that BSA has asked hotel staff to confiscate any literature or leaflets that are not approved by BSA’s top leadership—
meaning anything that disagrees with the proposed change.
These leaders organized an “informational” meeting for the voting delegates, mostly dedicated to persuading delegates to change BSA’s longstanding policy.
This becomes all the more interesting since all three of Texas’ most prominent statewide leaders—Gov. Rick Perry, Sen. John Cornyn, and Sen. Ted Cruz—have openly encouraged the Scouts to maintain the current policy.

As an example of the muzzling tactics in play,
one supporter of the traditional policy went to the FedEx shop in the Gaylord to print copies of the Dallas Morning News ad presenting the reasons for maintaining the current policy.
This was to counter the USA Today op-ed from BSA’s Chief Scout Executive Wayne Perry—
leading the effort to change the current policy—that was distributed in the hotel.

The traditional policy supporter was suddenly confronted by Daron Smith, the PR Director for BSA, accompanied by two hotel security guards with earpieces and handheld radios,
who told him he would not be allowed to distribute the literature within the hotel.
It also seems that outside literature was not allowed from the other side, either,
but such literature would seem unnecessary after the USA Today piece.

When confronted, the FedEx manager admitted that when he saw the handouts being printed in the shop
that he contacted the hotel to tip off BSA staff so they could respond.

It’s also being reported by those onsite that media reporters are not being allowed inside the Gaylord.
Anyone familiar with how lobbying works knows it should raise eyebrows
when people don't allow reporters or cameras to cover events on the ground."

So pro-Homosexual Leaders in the Boy Scouts Of America don't believe in fairness or in free speech.

If Boy Scout membership doesn’t decline by at LEAST 30% I’ll be surprised.

They’re about to find out what JC Penney now knows.

“Similar bills have been introduced in New Jersey and Massachusetts, according to Wayne Besen, executive director of Truth Wins Out, a gay rights group based in Vermont.”

Thanks! My guess was Vermont and Massachusetts...I was half-right, although the movement (ick) is based in the Red Mountain state.

Appreciate your help...rather get the info from a Freeper than to click on a New York Times link...

“.....a wholesome and all-American reputation....”

Not anymore, all of that just died.

Today, the Beast has won this battle, he should be pleased.

There is no way in the world that I would have allowed my son to be a part of this demented nonsense. Thank God he is normal and is now a grown man that I, his father, is very proud of.

What blew my mind was the mormon church - which has nearly 30% of all chartered troops is just fine with this.

My feelings about the Mormon church were benign up until this point...explains why Glenn Beck is down with gay marriage...

Some great comments on the Sodom Scouts facebook page...

My son will not be joining your organ - ization.

LOL!
