Hah!! Boy Scouts in trouble

[idiosyncratic]

I saw this on the NBC news tonight just before they covered the Gannon story.

I love it when these homophobes get in trouble.

Boy Scout Scandal Hits Home


NPR also covered this story this afternoon.

Boy Scouts Accused of Inflating Membership

[coloradodem2005]

1. This pains me.

To see what the Boy Scouts have done here, and their discrimination policies. Being an Eagle Scout and having had many fond memories of Boy Scouts, it really saddens me to no end.

2. Same here

My Eagle still means a great deal to me. We had a very tolerant troop.

The BSA could do so much good, and they continue to become something I am not proud of.

On edit:
The BSA council that has been inflating their numbers was the council I was associated with 25 years ago.

Sad.

3. I'm glad you had a good experience with the scouts

I wonder how the United Way and others who donate to the Scouts based on the numbers feel about this.

When the Red Cross was caught doing bad things here in San Diego after a fire a few years ago, when the next fire occurred, no one sent in any donations.
