Not having a private vote was definitely a ploy to affect the outcome.
Amazing...there is nothing more constant than change...especially in our “Future Shock” reality. We live in interesting times and it is a good time to be old.
Loaded petitions and mushy BSA leaders spelled the doom of the BSA’s future. It is a shame but BSA is toast.
Very good line.
My grandkids won’t be boy scouts.
Catholics have the De Molay don’t they?
Anyone taking odds on how soon the first lawsuit is filed on behalf of one of the newly admitted homosexual boy scouts alleging mistreatment. And asking for, and very likely getting, a SUBSTANTIAL financial settlement. This will happen as surely as night follows day.
BSA will regret this decision.
According to US News & World Reports, the God Bless America Foundation was going to withhold money from the Boy Scouts unless they included homosexuals in the organization.

Time for a new song.
Now an officially sanctioned harvest ground for sodomites and pedophiles.
**I think that the Catholic crowd ought best to start local gatherings of the Catholic Scouts.**
I agree. CSA sounds pretty good.
The Baptists have a good girls’ program called AWANA.
“Certainly not the Mormon leadership, who wanted to homosexualize the BSA.”
please provide an explanation for this most serious charge. as i recall, mormons aren’t the only denomination to have homosexuals amongst their members or clergy. i’ve never heard any of my mormon friends promoting a homosexual lifestyle: quite the contrary.
They’ve answered the Call of Cthulhu
Incredible. I hope they have to fold up now that sodomites will infiltrate the banquet of young boys. I can’t see any dad wanting his kid to spend a weekend with a sodomite boy scout or a leader.
They can all go to hell.
If I were a Boy Scout, I wouldn’t hold my hand up for any reason. They’d be protecting my privates from the predators now sponsored by the BSA.
Any parent who allows their boy to remain in the Scouts is setting them up to be gay.
I just sent an email to the BSA leadership castigating them for their sick and perverted decision to join the evil legions of political correctness and telling them they will never receive another cent from me.
Of course, even though this will result in a massive decrease in donation income, in a year or two, their new queer masters will put out a news release announcing the transition has been highly successful, and that the BSA is prepared to move on to the next phase.... Allowing queer scoutmasters.
This whole gay agenda/Boy Scout decision puzzles me. I’ve never known a gay person who had the slightest interest in the outdoors. Maybe what we have here is an incremental push toward converting BSA into NAMBLA.
Kind of a crude way to say it, but the Chicken Hawk Patrol is always looking for young meat.
That is not what the Politically Correct groupies are thinking --- they just want to be 'correct' -- but that will be the net result and the end of the BSA.
The Chicken Hawks will have a feast, for a while, Scouting will die, and we will lose a wonderful institution that has helped millions of kids for the last 100 years to become responsible citizens.
I know my old Scout Master, one of the most wonderful persons I have ever known, is probably be rolling over in his grave right now.
