Boy Scout Leaders Embrace Transgender Claims, Discard ‘Boys Only’ Rule
Breitbart ^ | January 30, 2017 | Neil Munro

Posted on 01/31/2017 1:47:18 PM PST by lowbridge

The Boy Scouts organization has adopted a transgender policy change which suddenly ends its 106-year role as a single-sex character-development group for young boys.

The group discarded the unifying entry requirements of boyhood and male biology, and is now accepting females who wish to live as “transgender boys,” after just a few weeks of internal discussion.

Geez, the world is changing, isn’t it?

But not all the changes we see are for the better.

I know liberals will be thrilled. They feel this is a giant step forward for “LGBT” rights. The boy scouts finally accept girls who identify as boys due to having Gender Dysphoria or related mental conditions. How fabulous is that. I’m sure there will be parades and celebrations in The Castro tonight.

Or there might not be, because the liberals are scheduled to bitch about Trump’s Supreme Court nominee tonight.

BSA makes themselves a part to child abuse.

One thing that has struck me about this ongoing Boy Scout saga - it seems they aligned themselves financially with large corporations and politically powerful people. It was a great thing and brought in lots of money and influence for the decades that it lasted.

And when those people changed their views - guess what - those links became shackles and a whip.

So if one mom decides she's a male and becomes camp counselor, what would the boys do.

Hey Johnny....isn't that your mom??

Just shows you how stupid the whole thing is.

And I don't buy girl scout cookies....since they went pro-abortion.

The declining Scouts can no longer afford to fight. Simple as that.

The BSA is dead and just doesn’t know it yet.

Sadly enough one of Trump’s nominees supports this.

My father told me back in the 1960s that becoming an Eagle Scout would be the best thing for my future, and I became one of the class of 1968. I am becoming increasingly ashamed of the organization.

The leadership is simply afraid of being sued.

The freakin’ ACLU is using the legal syatem to destroy traditional American values. Freedom of association, f’rinstance.

From my experience, this latest is primarily to keep corporate donations coming in so “Senior BSA Executives” can maintain their salaries and perks.

Very little of that money makes it down to the level of local scout councils, many of which are struggling mightily at present as people like me (Eagle Scout, 30+ years as member and leader, both sons Eagle Scouts) have stopped their financial support.

That's why they're declining.
