Just one faggot named in the lawsuits with a connection to Intel ~ as a reseller, employee, manager, or major customer’s buyer ~ and that’s where the lawsuits get referred to ~ Intel ~ I am sure somebody in Boy Scouts’ defense team is on that right now, and that could well be the link anyway.
Perhaps you're just reading into this . . .
In fact, the troops give a lot to the national organization through dividing the money collected through popcorn sales. I have been with my son's troop the past two weekends while they sold popcorn outside a large grocery store - I won't cause the store problems like a boycott by revealing their name.
The sale have gone really well, and that's good because National dramatically increased our quota this year. Almost everyone reacted well to being asked to buy. While not everyone bought the expensive popcorn (with today's economy? Are you kidding?), most responded with statements of support, and many gave a dollar or two as a donation.
There were two negative incidents: one guy gave a dirty look and spit on the ground; other dude stuttered that he would buy "when they stopped discriminating." I'm guessing these guys are not morally straight.
Well - unfortunately this isn’t true. While troops might be self-sufficient (some aren’t..) the level up troops run ONLY on donations from the community. I’m talking about the council level offices. That place where you bought your uniform or the Scout Master ordered the merit badges costs money to keep open. They have staff there that oversees record keeping of the Scout’s advancement, coordinate operations of the Summer camps owned by the councils, etc. Money for these operations comes primarily from donations.

Intel is pro-pedophilia? Who knew?
Apple/Mac use Intel exclusively? I didn’t know that. Sorry for you. :(
“Intel promotes pedophilia.”
Agreed.
It gives a whole new meaning to “Intel inside” (tm).
What you said and.....why do organizations like the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts need “corporate support” from anyone? What they need is leaders! When I was a Girl Scout leader, a long time ago, there was no corporate support, and there was very little parental support either. How did corporations ever come to be involved anyway?
Intel taking it up the backside bus.
Heads on Pikes!!
riot!
we’ll need lawn chairs and lemonade
Things must have changed because I bought my uniform at a department store, and my gear anywhere. We only participated in a couple state or national events, though. Pretty much went to meetings and camped wherever. I try to donate whenever I see them, though, because I remember raising money for new tents. Was still in the Army surplus jobs when I moved away.
YUP.
Did you hear the recent scandal that in the old days they had some boys molested?
Well, apparently that is proof to the left that they need more gays leading boys into the woods.
weird.
The Girl Scouts are into Wiccan and Planned Parenthood. I would never let a girl into that group
I went through outdoor training a few weeks ago with a bunch of other new leaders and some seasoned vets there to guide us. We all tried to avoid politics around the campfire, at first. But it became obvious that no one in our group had any patience for the agenda that some are trying to shove on Scouting.
If the "progressives" get their way, most parents I know intend to remove their boys. To hell with National if they cave on this. We can form our own underground troops and organization.
Yes, the stark line is drawn, and you are either on the side of civilization and morality, or the side of moral anarchy and relativism. I see this as healthy. It’s been a long time coming.
Taking the JC Penney Highway to prosperity...
We spend no money there, either.
I love that people are walking with their money, but has anyone checked out AMD's position yet? I don't know what they believe, but we can't just assume.
