Boy Scout leadership is completely out of touch.
I guess they can take that “Morally straight” out of the boy scout oath now, too! (spit)
WHY oh WHY are we allowing our country to be taken over by sexual deviants and mentally ill????
Is there no one (with a microphone) strong enough to say “NO! ENOUGH of this crap!”??????
(Well, I can dream, can’t I? ;-)
BSA is over as far as being like it was for me in the late 50s/early 60s.
On the subject of the Boy Scouts, here is the letter I did related to the Oregon policy on transgender. The important part here is the links.

Subject: Oregon Transgender Policy
The Oregon Department of Education presented their policy interpretation allowing men to enter women’s bathrooms and lockers rooms based on current gender feelings. This asymmetrical approach results in a random walk through reflective life. When comforting lights of popular expressions drive decisions, no opportunity remains to consider insights such that as from John Hopkins.
At one time their Sexual Behaviors Consultation Unit conducted candidates through a lengthy preparation process culminating with gender reassignment surgery. Study caused them to question whether any emotional resolution was achieved and they eliminated the practice in 1979. Dr. Paul R. McHugh says, “that transgenderism is a mental disorder that merits treatment….These policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention.”
Shouldn’t transgenderism first be assessed as a medical issue? Women are terribly uncomfortable with a mercurial revelation that they believe violates their inherent natural right to feel safe and private in their persons. This policy provides many the opportunities to indulge in deviant impulses. The policy thrusts a few into intimate political theater where they portray a feeble caricature of a woman, but without evidence of benefit to their psychological condition. Considering John Hopkins’ experience with reassignment surgery, shouldn’t this radical transformation of society await careful review?

I don’t blame the BSA for this.
When entire states in the Union start declaring that, ‘A person is the sex they think they are”, BSA organization within that state cannot defend against lawsuits for not allowing 8 year girls who “Identify” as boys.
This is a society problem. An truth problem and an irrational fear of telling someone their bat shat crazy problem.
the BSA is not leading the way in accepting this trans BS, they are just trying to survive the gauntlet of inevitable lawsuits being thrust at them because of the break down of common sense, the advent of 200+ sexual identities etc.
When the BSA was founded there were 2 sexes and everyone knew which they were. That is not the world they are trying to exist in now.
How is this their fault? For not going bankrupt and fighting a battle that is not theirs? The Scouting program is not about sex. It’s not about sexuality and it’s not about “Trans-ANYTHING”, it’s about developing life skills and becoming a productive member of society. Sex and sexuality is for home teaching.
It’s not their fight.
I was a Scout, my son was a Scout, I supported Scouting until they surrendered to the homosexual lobby.
They were already done before this as far as being morally straight, this just puts them into the fantasy land of confusion.
Penis = male
vagina = female
Two sexes, gender refers to language. Simple biology.
If you cannot accept what you see in your underwear, the rest of society does not have to accommodate your mental illness.
in the 50’s 60’s and 70’s the scout leaders were WWII and Korea Vets....now it’s a lot of women.
I hardly recognize the scouts anymore.
Back in the 70’s and 80’s we had girl boy scouts. They weren’t really boy scouts but they did the same things we did. These were the girls that were too tough (tom boys) for girl scouts and I think all of them had a brother or father involved with the boy scouts. There weren’t many though. They also did not wear the boy scout uniforms or earn badges or participate in ceremonies. And they identified as girls.
They’re not transgendered. They’re transvestites. I guess that word has been removed from the dictionary. Even FreeRepublic doesn’t have it in the spell correct feature.
Any organization that isn’t explicitly Christian, will eventually become anti-Christian.
Fantastic article! To appease Liberals is to surrender to them. The Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts should merge. They are now both Leftwing organizations that are meant for Liberal parents to instill Liberal sexuality into their children.
I pulled my boys out as soon as they caved to the homosexuals. I sent them an email letting them know why and never got a reply. The left destroys all good things.
The corpse of BSA will still twitch a bit, especially in the sticks where everybody knows everybody and “different” kids still have accidents falling on other kids fists. But it’s still a corpse.
Troll be gone.
