Boy Scouts Now Officially ‘Scouting America,’ Champion DEI Principles
DailyWire.com ^ | Feb 13, 2025 | Hank Berrien

Last weekend, after being in existence for 114 years, the organization formerly known as the Boy Scouts officially changed its name to Scouting America in an attempt to be more inclusive, as the organization offers merit badges championing DEI principles.

The Boy Scouts dropped “Boy” from their name in 2018 and became Scouts BSA. Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Boy Scouts, said succinctly, “Scouting is a game for boys under the leadership of boys under the direction of a man.”

“The change was made to reflect the organization’s ongoing commitment to welcoming every youth in America to experience the benefits of Scouting,” Scouting America stated. “Our new name is representative of the path we want Scouting to chart for the next century. … We recently celebrated the five-year anniversary of welcoming girls into the Cub Scouts and Scouts BSA programs. (Scouts BSA was formerly known as ‘Boy Scouts.’) There are currently 176,234 girls and young women across all BSA programs, including more than 6,000 who have earned the rank of Eagle Scout.”

“Though our name will be new, our mission remains unchanged: We are committed to teaching young people to be Prepared. For Life,” Scouting America president and CEO Roger A. Krone said. “This will be a simple but very important evolution as we seek to ensure that everyone feels welcome in Scouting.”

Soon they’ll rename the Eagle Scout rank to something not so patriotic sounding to keep from offending a scoutmaster during his menopause.

They could have done this years ago but they wanted to infiltrate in order to destroy, one would surmise

I suggested an alternative name to them, “Scouting for Gays”. Never heard back though.

Well, I know of one donation they won’t be getting this year or any other year if they maintain this silly name.

To be honest, the failure to deal effectively with the molestation problem had a bit to BSA’s decline. (Eagle Scout here)

This is the textbook definition of the term, “bad timing.”

Just think of all the nice organizations and words that the faggots have destroyed: Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Methodism, gay, rainbows, pride, etc. This was all done by 1.5% of the population at best and nearly 100% of our media.

...because the way to pay for molestation lawsuits is to champion principles that could lead to more molestation lawsuits.

Someone wants to raid the Boy Scouts for their properties and worked to infest them with deviants.

The Left plays the long game.

They have infiltrated every American institution for decades, biding their time and radicalizing bit by bit.

The Boy Scouts, the Church, the Armed Forces, the Music Industry, Sports, Education, Television Sit-coms.

All have been infected with the woke-commi virus.
