Amen to that. Good for the BSA!
That’s great. Way to go, BSA
There is a reason the Boy Scouts of America turns out straight arrows.
I guess the BSA won’t be presenting the flag next month at the Democratic Convention.
Kudos, BSA.
I sure hope not. :-)
I never buy Girl Scout cookies, but always buy stuff from the Boy Scouts....I like their popcorn...really!
On my Honor
I will do my best
To do my Duty
For my God and Country,
To obey the Scout Law.
To help other people at all times,
And to keep myself
Physically strong,
MENTALLY AWAKE and
MORALLY STRAIGHT
That’s the Scout Oath. Not much room for buggering reprobates in those lines.
The only solution to this “ tourde” that keeps popping up in the punch bowl is......Scouts out of the United Way; United Way OUT OF THE SCOUTS!
It’s nice to read that some institutions cannot be railroaded into doing what is politically correct,but basically wrong.
Same here; didn't know about the popcorn, though.
Sure would like to find ways to show support for BSA
Great news. Now if we could only purge the BSA of the feminazis who have infiltrated it to an alarming degree. BSA should be men and boys....like it was for me in the 50’s. I went to my nephew’s Eagle ceremony recently and I was shocked to see the staff was half women. Unbelievable. Lord BP would have puked. I’ll bet the Girl Scout leaders aren’t half men!
Two words say it all... Jerry Sandusky

I’m sure your local troop would be happy to take a donation from you.
As for the popcorn, though, I bought some last year, but I almost fainted when they told me what I owed them. Way overpriced, IMO.
...I was shocked to see the staff was half women.

I agree with you that it should be just men — and I am a woman. But perhaps the problem is that there are not enough men stepping up.
Scout Ping
Find your local Council in the phone book or online, and tell them you want to contribute to Friends of Scouting. Or watch for Cub Scouts, in September and October, selling popcorn in front of a grocery store or at your church.
Great piece, thanks for posting it. BSA has shown integrity and bravery in the face of a politically correct tidal wave of trendiness.
Meanwhile, another Council is being sued because a young man with years in Scout was found to be molesting younger boys.
There can be no exceptions. They must keep homosexuals away from the boys, period ... and, unfortunately, train even the youngest Boy Scouts to recognize, report, shout to high heaven about any sexual activity.
