Remember when the Boy Scouts said changing their policy wouldn't involve gay scout leaders?

Well that was then.

Boy Scouts President Robert Gates Calls for End of Ban on Gay Troop Leaders


The new policy is coming quicker than you can say Jack Robinson. In effect gay scout leaders are now permitted since Gates says he will not revoke the charter of troops that allow homosexuals leaders. 

Any parents who leave their sons in the Boy Scouts are insane. Homosexuals represent about 3% of the population; they commit about thirty percent of child sex abuse. Not every homosexual is an abuser, but those who are look for opportunities to be around children -- especially without the supervision of their parents. Check out this article: 

How the 'gay' child-sex-abuse cover-up kills young men

My husband and I were camping last weekend in Gettysburg. Two scout troops were camping there as well with several dozen tents set up -- lots of young boys, an ephebophile's dream.

 Thirty-eight percent of children identifying as gay were victims of sex abuse. Homosexuals aren't born; they're made. There is no evidence of a "born that way" gene. It's all about recruitment and gay/straight alliance clubs, homosexual education, etc. are all opening children to perverted sexual experimentation. Our culture actively cooperates to train youngsters to be heterosexually and homosexually active or both. 

God made us male and female. Any claim otherwise is straight out of the mouth of the deceiver. Those who are same-sex attractive need our love, but they also need the truth about chastity. Hell is forever.

Damned if they do and damned if they don't. From the Connecticut Law Trubune, December 14, 2014.

A jury in Waterbury has awarded $7 million to a former Connecticut Boy Scout who claims he was sexually abused by his troop leader and an older scout in the mid-1970s. The jury found the Boy Scouts of America liable for compensatory damages as well as for punitive damages for recklessness; the punitive damages will be determined at a later time by the judge.

There have been dozens of similar lawsuits filed against the Boy Scouts of America across the country. But Slager said few of them have been tried before a jury. Slager believes this is the largest compensatory damages verdict against the Boy Scouts of America and the first case to go to a jury verdict in the Northeast.

Remember when the GOPe Presidential Nominee said Boy Scouts should accept gays?

How did 1% of the nation take control?

Isn’t that amazing - me (and millions like me) saying I wouldn’t want my children having anything to do with scouting because I consider it an unhealthy and unsafe atmosphere.

To hang on to that sweet, sweet corporate money, the BSA decided to hand over their kids to the molesters.

Abject evil. I have nothing but total contempt for the organization.

Mitt Romney has been supporting gay Scout leaders for more than 20 years.

In 2002, he punished them by keeping them out of helping during the Winter Olympics.

(Homosexuals represent about 3% of the population;)
That actually seems inflated. I understand it is between 1.5 and 2 percent. The Government and the media inflate the number because it suits their purpose to do so.

Gates is a phony. He knows that there are thick files of abuse cases in boy scout files and the problem will only get worse if his bizarre proposal is implemented. He no doubt is trying to placate politically correct corporate donors on his board who are insisting on the vile change. The national headquarters and the salaries of the staff are no doubt dependent on those donations. Disgusting decadence.

3% of the population my eye! They represent 1% - barely. They are simply overrepresented in the big, liberal cities of the USA.

“Remember when the Boy Scouts said changing their policy wouldn’t involve gay scout leaders?”

Remember when lying was against the moral code of the boy scouts?

Now that moral codes are no longer a problem for the scouts...

Remember when the first point of the Scout Law was “A Scout is trustworthy”?

Good times.

It’s a free market. Why doesn’t someone set up a scouting organization with all gay scout leaders and see how many parents sign their kids up?

Yeah, well, remember when the United States military kicked the homos out of the service? Same things happening here. This nation has gone into the dark obis of hell and coming damnation. There is little to nothing we can do about it. God has removed His hedge of protection from over this apostate and garbage covered nation. We can only hope that enough people will repent and hopefully gain some hope for this ruined nation, but I doubt it. America is basically done.

The best-case scenario is that the BSA gets tens of millions of dollars more in corporate donations ... even as its membership numbers continue their steep decline.

If this sounds bizarre, just consider that this is a dream scenario for the leadership of any non-profit organization that functions as a legally-run racket: six-figure salaries for the executive leaders in an organization that doesn't actually do anything.

I frankly agree.

Things like this inform me that America is indeed damned.
