And what month was it that they went gay?
I think 6 percent does not tell the whole tale. but 2014 and a full year will.
Yep. Wait till we see stats for 2014. This policy didn’t take effect till January 1, 2014. I know two Scout leaders locally who resigned effective January 1. My youngest son had his Eagle Scout Board of Review in December and they asked him how he would be participating in the coming year. He told them in no uncertain terms that he would not longer be active in the Scouts effective January 1 and that this is the reason why.

But a majority of Fortune 500 companies want to see the policy changed to support open homosexual identification in Scouting.
BSA has been losing membership since 1973. The new Membership Standard adopted on 5/23/2013 to allow openly homosexual youth, but no adults, will accelerate the membership decline, but not dramatically at first. It may take a year, i.e., early 2015, before BSA releases its annual membership statistics before we can judge how BSA membership has been affected.
I predict that guys who are just a couple years from Eagle Scout are not going to quit, because that means abandoning something they've been working toward for so long. But you're going to see fewer and fewer young kids coming in as the encroachment of "gay youth culture" becomes more obvious.
