I see it. This is still a mistake. BSA still has exactly the same standards as it had before as regards behavior of boys. Why kill a good organization right when it needs strong conservatives to hold it together?

This has all been so ridiculous. All that changed at BSA is they issued a statement of acceptance of the gay kids who’d always been accepted silently before. They caved unnecessarily to the activists and some donors.

But the activists began pushing, the day the new policy was announced, for acceptance of gay scout leaders. That one will alienate even more long-time scout participants and supporters, and will damage BSA even more than the official statement that gay scouts are accepted.

"Why kill a good organization..."

Why don't you go ask National and the simpering, traitorous weasels on the National Board, including the mormon who pushed this change and get back with us when you get an answer?

They're the ones who have demonstrated a lack of moral fiber, values, character and will. They have betrayed the trust that thousands upon thousands of volunteer leaders had in them by their deceitful and shameful maneuvering in this whole sordid episode.

They [BSA National scum] are the ones who "killed a good organization", not the ones who are holding to their principles, values and morals who are leaving and helping to form an organization that is going to share those same traits.

I will not either implicitly or tacitly endorse the very leadership that I don't trust by remaining in the BSA beyond my self-imposed Scouting expiration date.
