Here is the list. Don't let another long standing conservative organization fall to liberal activism. Let's keep scouting about scouting not political correctness!

[Chainmail]

I’m calling them all right now. Does anyone have their e-mails?

This needs to be a priority to all who believe in morals and integrity. The homosexual lobby is out in force and currently are overwhelming the BSA with their opinion. The BSA facebook page has over 10000 comments on this and a high percentage are positive for the change. To the homosexuals this is the ‘holy grail’, they want this at all costs. If the BSA capitulates and puts this policy in place, the individual troops/charter organizations will have to fight the homosexual lobby on their own. At that point the BSA will end.

I am a scoutmaster and feel betrayed by the BSA national. BSA has always been the high ground in morals and character and we are now witnessing the cesspool of society pulling it down to its level.

Whew! That was close. I just called them and told the the difference between right and wrong.

My comment on their FaceBook page:

If the proposed policy change is enacted by the National Board, they will have chosen to follow the money rather than the morals. Additionally, placing this burden on the local unit and its chartering organization will ultimately result in loss of units and membership. I urge the Board to choose carefully because it will be a decision that will mean whether Scouting will continue as a force for good or gradually fade away to “remember when” status.

I guess we should now start modifying the Scout Oath. Now the ‘morally clean’ is out the window. What’s next. There will be more sleeping under the stars since 2 man tents could be a problem.

One article mentioned that “wealthy donors” are pressuring BSA board members?

“”No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.” Matt 6:24

Have these idiots taken any thought as to what their legal bills and settlements will be after the first two or three molestation lawsuits due to their new, inclusive homosexual scout leaders?

What about all the churches that drop their Scout troops after this change?

What about all the other donors who take the Scout oath seriously and then decide to stop supporting BSA?

Are they prepared for the gender discrimination lawsuits to follow?

Coed camping?

Idiots!

Call the BSA Board of Directors listed in the thread & tell them to uphold Scouting values!

They’re going for their Really Bad Decision belt-loop.

No offense to those who enjoy Scouts (we mostly did when our family was involved in Scouts), but there’s options.

Instead of Scouts... Have your family go on mission trips with your Church. Take your kids camping (with no freakin’ electronics!). Go out in the garage and show them how to use tools - build something. Make sure they’re involved in sports (any sport - no excuse). Turn off the TV and talk about values and why they’re important. Show them what it means to be a leader, to volunteer, to give.

There’s more obviously, and it doesn’t involve hitting up all your neighbors to buy popcorn!

Today I informed my pack, my local council, and the National BSA organization that both myself and my son will be resigning immediately from scouts if this policy is changed next week. As a current Den Leader and former Cub Master, I have given a great deal of my time, energy, and money to scouting. But I can’t take the risk that my son may attend BSA summer or winter camps, events, or properties where there is a reasonable chance that there are adult homosexual males as leaders. Just like Jerry Sandusky, Adult homosexual males are far more likely to be sexual predators of small boys and pedophiles.

I have written to both the local council and BSA, but it looks like after next week our family will no longer participate in scouting.

I read the following on another site:

"recently, pressure surfaced on the Scouts' own national executive board. Two high-powered members — Ernst & Young CEO James Turley and AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson — indicated they would try to work from within to change the membership policy . . .."

Here is a link where you can send an e-mail to Mr. Turley. Send e-mail to Turley Look for the "contact Jim" button on the left-hand side of the page.

I suggest a message along the following lines:

Dear Mr. Turley:

I recently read that you are attempting to destroy the Boy Scouts of America by endorsing homosexual scout leaders. Usually when I get notices of annual stockholder meetings I ignore them. However, due to this action of yours, from now on I shall vote to disapprove the selection of Ernst & Young as auditors of every publicly-traded company in which I am a shareholder.

Sincerely,

[A. Patriot]

It’s all about the money. Sell your sole for filthy money. One of the two pervs on the board pushing this is in line to be president of the organization next year.

Sample Phone Script:

Hello, my name is _________, from __________.

Thank you for your service as a board member of the Boy Scouts of America.

As you're aware, a new proposal indicates that the Boy Scouts of America may revoke their longstanding policy of safeguarding Scouts by restricting homosexuals from holding leadership positions over boys. For decades, your national organization has kept the interest of the boys it serves as the focus of all its actions. No matter what, the Boy Scouts of America could be counted upon to do the right thing and not yield to any social pressure, and has thus far stood strong.

Please do not jeopardize the safety and moral integrity of Scouting in the interest of social activism. The proposal to relegate the decision on homosexual leaders to local chartered organizations sends the wrong signal from the national body: that political correctness ultimately triumphs over character.

Please retain the current long-held and time-tested policy regarding homosexual leadership and membership. America stands with you. Lead the way. Please stand strong.

Thank you, and God bless you.

Together, we can make a difference in turning the tide and keeping an honorable organization on an honorable path.

do not follow the script verbatim, if anything make it SHORTER so more people can call in opposition to endangering children. even change up the "god bless" part so they know it is not only mere religion, that logic and reason dictate keeping homosexual practitioners away from children.
