My thought is that Carly and/or Train knew beforehand what the Boy Scouts believe and said they'd perform only to cancel and look like heroes OR they agreed to perform and the backlash from liberal supporters and GLAAD threatening to boycott them made them cancel.

Yup. This smells of a setup.
If only the Boy Scouts hadn't been so insensitive, they could be hanging with the one-hit wonder.

Good. I have a son in the Boy Scouts, and frankly they don’t need to have this kind of “entertainment” at their Jamborees in the first place.

Carly Rae Jepsen is one of the very few musicians I can think of who turns out good music these days. Too bad she chose to support bug chasers and gift givers.

Talk about tyranny of the minority!
Polls show that gays make up less than 3% of the population, yet you'd think that they are a dominant sector of the population based on all the activism they put out.

I think the boys should be greatful. Why would they attend that Vomitorium, anywhay. When I hear the first shrill sound of Soul Sister, makes me wanna jump out of the car. More disgusting is only Madonna.

No great loss. Just another Canadian socialist who needs to go back to Canada and pay her fair share instead of hanging out in the USA as a tax refugee.

Someone seriously needs to start telling these leftists to F off. Gay lesbian is not worth this drama, and LGBT damn well isn’t. These people are all brainwashed/ intimidated by the far left and it’s outrageous.

Why am I not surprised that selfish, spoiled “artistes” think it would be a great idea for the Boy Scouts to let homosexuals take little boys off into the woods?
To: Pinkbell
I’d really like some red-blooded heterosexual male of.....oh, 17 or 18 petition to be a “leader” of a Girl Scout troop on overnights.....in the name of fairness and equality.

Members of Train said Friday in a message on their website that they were unaware of the policy barring gay scouts and adult leaders from participating in the organization before agreeing to perform. 'Train strongly opposes any kind of policy that questions the equality of any American citizen,' the statement said.
'We have always seen the BSA as a great and noble organization.
Doesn't pass the smell test. As phony as Sanda Fluke being unaware of the Catholic church's stance against birth control before she applied to a Catholic school.
