Johnstown, PA is a small town very pro-life but the union mentality has made it a Democrat stronghold. I'm surprised at the number who favor this decision by BSUSA

BSA uses the Buddy System. No Scout can be a lone in a tent. When no one wants to be the Gay Scout’s “Buddy”, will one be assigned? What if he refuses? The Troop will not be able to camp out unless the Gay Scout has a Buddy.

One of the options should have been. “This is the way a nation dies.”

That conundrum is small potatoes. We can’t even figure out if a boy is a girl or a girl is a boy and what potty room they should use.

I read yesterday that the Baptists are pulling out of the Scouts. The Scouts are dead.

Just voted.

Don’t Approve - 62% (1280 votes)

Right Decision - 23% (475)

Would like to see Gay Scout leaders - 15% (311)

Shame this poll isn’t going the way these queers had hoped.

The homosexuals just want to destroy the scouts. They should be told to start their own organization. Butt Pirates United or Fudge Packers of America. Problem solved.

62% don’t agree. But that doesn’t matter. The decision has been made. Next stop: gay leaders.

Yep! I know alot of Catholics pulling their sons out of this organization, too. Very much a shame! But as someone pointed out above, this is the way a nation dies: assualt on the family unit.

There will be a name for boys who go into the woods with this organization: “victims.”

Good question. I have a little girl, but if I had a son, no way in heck would my son participate in this or be allowed to sleep in a tent with a gay.

I don't approve of it. It was the worst thing they could have done to kill the program. (1280 votes)

It will be interesting to see if the Catholics withdraw their sponsorship of troops and Packs. Both of my sons were Scouts, and one of them is a Scoutmaster today. All but one of my male grandchildren have been engaged in Scouting. (He was engaged in baseball, instead.)

There should be a mass exodus from the BSA. I wonder if it will happen though. There should have been a mass exodus out of the movie theaters.

Hmmm, strange how the poll results haven't updated in the past few minutes. Typical Liberals; if information and news don't go your way, suppress it.

Sick perverts!

I agree with your post but I’d take it a step futher: there should be a mass exodus from network TV. I read recently that almost all TV shows now have a gay character. WHY on Earth are people accepting this????
