The national council did their voting in secret ~ that way we don't know who the pedophiles are, but we can treat all 1200 of them as if they are among that number ~ should be correct 720 times!

Being publicly identified as having pedophile proclivities ~ all 1200 of them ~ should be enough to hurt some personal credit ratings, and might be something their ladies might keep in mind for use in divorce court.

Nobody has to put their kid in a troop run by a Scoutmaster they don’t trust
period

They can start their own troop instead

That is a misinformed and quite cowardly statement.

Those who think about the BSA as you do are a minority of a minority of a minority.

You will be an anti BSA activistnow just to soothe your own ego. That is wrong

>>Nobody has to put their kid in a troop run by a Scoutmaster they don’t trust.<<

I’m thinking that’s not the point. Scout leadership betrayed the very values they’ve taken an oath to uphold.

Homosexuality is NOT normal. By voting to accept openly homosexual scouts, you’ve essentially accepted homosexuality as normal. It’s only a matter of time, the gay agenda will sue to force openly gay scout leaders.

For 50 years the majority of my charitable donations have gone to the Boy Scouts or the Salvation Army because I had confidence that those two organizations would do the right thing with my money.

Sadly, only the SA will hear from me in the future.

If an organization will desert its core principles it is no longer worthy of respect -- or support.

The Homomob will now turn its attack to the SA. If the Army is defeated we won't have to look further for Gomorrah -- we'll be there.

(These are the thoughts of a one-time Boy Scout and the father of two Eagle Scouts.)

When they go to camp or National Jamboree they don't know what "scoutmasters" they'll have. (Except for the ones that come with them.)

Infiltrate a few NAMBLA members here and there and then see what you have.

BSA is over - zip, nada, no support from me - Eagle Scout. I hope many churches just say enough. The organization is virtually over with.

The number of openly homosexual boys making application will be between 0 and nil. Almost no boys above 13 or 14 ever become scouts.

You are projecting what is pretty much a non problem.

The queer scouts will develop from boys already in the troop. There will be almost none

There is no half way anymore.

Revelation 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

You are the coward.

What is cowardly is not standing up for 'honor' but submitting to dishonor. Now the BSA have none! Who would support a bunch of cowards - not me and my house.

It's not a question of numbers but of principles. Ever hear of morally straight?

I support your position 100%, though I would just like to point out please two things:

1) No change has been made yet in actual policy real-time. I personally support a shake-up at national BSA whereby the gay influence is removed and the old policy returned.

2) No adult gay admission was made.

(yet).

The BSA made a HUGE mistake. They should overturn it now.

(former scout here, as well)

It isn’t about gay scouts. Get that through your head. It’s about Gay Scout Leaders!! Allowing gay scouts is just a stepping stone.

It was the queers who turned this into a sex thing.

Before that, I supported the BSA 100%. It was about building boys and men of character, of duty, who had talents and knowledge.

Now, there is no way you could give the Boy Scouts a single damn nickel and not have some perv somewhere taking that as a sign that you support them.

My money goes to Salvation Army. At least until the whack jobs take them over too.

Somebody in this damn country needs to grow a spine!
