I would have thought the BSA policy was national. That local councils are openly admitting homosexual members sort of negates what the organization was trying to do. As noted in the piece, parents may not even be aware that the national policy doesn’t apply to their local chapter.
Revoke their charter and disbanded the troops and let the gay group form under another name free and clear of BSA. The values associated with scouting mean alot to the boys who achieve. To have separate values for each city devalues the eagle and other levels, affirming a higher power and extolling Christian values builds stronger more righteous men.
go start their own group “The Goy Scouts” and don’t allow the real Boy Scouts to join. Simple! End of Discussion!
Sue those local councils for child endangerment.
Even if those suits aren’t initially successful, it provides a reference point in the event there are later molestations.
Any council that admits perverts in with the children should be stripped of the title Boy Scouts and banned for life from the program.
This has got to stop.
Homosexuals, out on a camping trip, with young boys.
What could go wrong?
It is a national policy, and the BSA can choose to revoke that Council’s charter. They may also be able to come in and fire the Exec, which is the easiest thing to do.
Instead of taking the honorable way out, respecting the BSA’s SCOTUS upheld right to free assembly, and form their own organization, they want to basically defecate on 100 years of hard work and real dedication.
Funny how the some of the tenants of the Scout Law are sort of moveable. You know, like ‘loyal’, ‘friendly’, ‘clean’, ‘brave’, and then of course ‘reverant’.
They can call themselves the Rainbow Scouts. The Equality Rangers.
I know the BSA has an entire database of adult leaders they’ve rejected over the years that would simply salivate over the possibility of leading such a fine youth organization.
Equate it with sandusky and watch how quick they drop it.
