I hope everyone involved in the BSA fiasco gets the lesson here: never cave on your principles, because to the people that hate your principles, it's never enough. BSA allowed homosexual scouts and companies pounced even harder on them. BSA compromised, and it got them nothing.
So to other groups that are being pressured the way BSA was pressured: don't sell your soul. Go down fighting rather than give in. Because no compromise is ever enough to feed the beast. It always wants more.

FU Caterpiller.
You are now recognized as a societal enemy of conservative christian values. The values the Founders had.

“How can a gay scout really get the entire scouting experience unless he has scoutmasters who really understand him?”
They’ll be behind him all the way.

In the US, Deere, probably; but the foreigners like like Komatsu, etc.
CAT? The union, global CAT? I thought they were certified PC.

Oh, I misunderstood. I thought they were
not supporting the scouts for the
right reasons.
I knew it was too good to be true.

Don’t the Girl Scouts prohibit male leaders? Or is it OK for a 26 year old hetro man to take a group of teenage girls out camping now?
The issue of homo men and boys is no different from hetro men and girls.

All of the big companies are traded on Wall Street, I think that is a choke point where liberals can put a lot of pressure on companies. Wouldn’t be surprised if the homo nazis are putting pressure by threatening to drop their shares in they don’t bow before the gays.
Homos have lots of fellow travelers such as Hollywood and unions that invest with large blocks of stocks. The left is notorious for its many boycotts.

Better to dissolve the big business, big media, big liberalism supported BSA. Start over with localized values and no perverts looking over your shoulder.

My guess is zero. Yet they cater to them anyway.
Companies led by PC idiots.
