They should make new uniforms that have targets painted on the back of their shorts.

why would scout leaders let their boys march in a “gay pride” parade, in the first place?

GET YOUR BOYS OUT OF SCOUTS, ITS ROTTED OUT!

Get your boys into organizations that try, at least, to uphold some basic moral standards!~ or start one...

Interesting, since SLC lds said they are not supporting the homosexualization of the Boy Scouts.....oh wait, they didn’t say that never mind. They said something but not that.

So the scouts already have openly homosexual leaders? I thought just the teenagers were supposed to be able to come out of the closet.

I wonder if they had been doing this BEFORE the policy-change decision had been made.

I know that there were defiant scouts, scout leaders and scouting units before this year, but were they held at bay by the no-homo policy? Did this change really embolden them this much?

Rules don’t apply to liberals, minorities, women, non-Christians, and gays.

After you endorse homosexuality by changing your long standing policy against homosexuals.... you don’t have a foot to stand on when scouts then abuse the uniform by using it to... support homosexuals...

defying a leader of the youth organization who had said they couldn’t do so under the organization’s guidelines prohibiting advocating political or social positions.

And yet they have succumbed in advocating for the same without the benefit of kneepads

The Boy Scouts should just fold up shop.

The GSA went without a whimper when Planned Parenthood took them over, but the Boy Scouts have hung on honorably for decades.

But now it’s time to go.

I thought the new uniforms would feature buttless chaps.

When I was in the Scouts if a kid was suspected of being gay, he didn’t last long in the troop. The leaders had nothing to do with it either.

Any parent who allows their son to remain in the Gay Scouts deserves to have their son be recruited by NAMBLA.
