Check out this picture of the French protesting gay marriage. They know the direction this is headed.

Interestingly enough, this may be an RIP for the boy scouts.

I local sheriff where I live is cancelling their charter in our area due to this decision being a violation of state laws regarding sodomy.

Next step for the BSA will be to allow gay scout leaders. I wonder how many parents will take their kids out of scouting.

Why would you send your son out camping with other boys that are overtly sexual and homosexual? Obviously Gays got their way, and obviously it will destroy the Boy Scouts.

But the Homosexuals are ok with that. They never liked the principles of Scouting anyway. They just hated being held accountible for their actions.

It is a small example of society in general. Every society that tolerated Homosexuality openly, destructs and the dust of that civilization blows in the wind.

This is true of America too. But the Homosexuals are ok with that. They never liked the principles of America either. What ever price you pay is worth it, as long as they get their way.

"Gay" is the new bubble, sorta like a red algae bloom.

The BSA will soon be floating belly up.

I expect to get as far with this suggestion as I do with my suggestion to pull your kids out of public indoctrination centers but I’ll say it anyway. It’s time to pull your boys out of Boy Scouts.

The once proud Boy Scouts of America has been highjacked by NAMBLA (the North American Man Boy Love Assoc). Keep your kids away!

“Last Thursday, approximately 1,400 adult BSA delegates from around the country gathered in Texas and decided, in a disgracefully lopsided vote”

How about one of these stories include the details of the vote. Is it a secret or something? Like is 1400 BSA delegates all of them that could vote in the US, or some of them or what? Or what was the exact vote total? One story said ‘60%+’ but I didn’t see anything more about it. You would think you would have seen something from somebody that voted against it if nothing else.

"will be convening for a coalition meeting of pro-family leaders next month in Louisville, Ky., to discuss the creation of a moral alternative to the Boy Scouts. Nature abhors a vacuum. We intend to fill it. "

That didn't take long. Didn't really think it would.

If one organization can get the various churches behind it. They could surplant the BSA in a short amount of time.

Yes...the Left wants to legalize pedophilia...those opposed will be marginalized and called out in the media...as being unmodern, and "Christianist". Soon they will be moving on the churches. The stuff the IRS was doing is just the beginning. The media is key...keep watching as ABCBSNBCNN lead the charge.

From now on they should be referred to as the Gay Scouts.

Sad day for what was a classic American institution.

I’m sure it’s as secret as the harassments of good people by the alphabet agencies including the tax people and for the same reasons.

BSA has been hijacked. It cannot recover while its former leaders continue to cower.

WE out here who have nothing to do with BSA due to gender, find that the lack of successful former BS and eagle scouts fighting against this speaks to a lack of courage and conviction, actually.

THis is a hugely demoralizing move in our country. Where are these politically correct people?

With 3 Eagles and 1 Life Scout sons and 1 Eagle grandson along with working to assist their Scoutmasters over the years, I am amazed at the shortsighted decision made on this issue.

What a great loss!

There is an alternative for Devout Christian families:

THE CHRISTIAN SERVICE BRIGADE.

The homosexuals will now have their own homosexual boys’ organization, without having to finance it. The shameful sell-out by the BSA brass shows that they are not trustworthy enough to be in charge of the training of young men.

Homosexuals are like the cowbird, that throws another bird’s eggs out of the nest and lays its own eggs in the vandalized nest. The original owner of the nest then returns and hatches the next generation of marauding cowbirds.

Unless those who espouse traditional Christian values stand up now and organize their own group, the future is bleak.
