LBGT Kills an American Institution

The Boy Scouts are 110 years old.
One of the finest organizations imaginable.
Teaching boys and young men skills, moral code, challenge, responsibility was what they were all about.

LGBT gained a little popularity in recent years and decided that Boy scouts were not inclusive enough for them. They wanted girls to join the boys club.

That was damaging enough when scout leadership caved to their demands.
Now, the LBGT of old that abused boys decades ago left damaging scars on those kids,now grown and they're suing in such great number - the scouts are going bankrupt.

It seems that everything the left gets hold of is ruined, broken, soured and over all destroyed.

Actually it was abusers and acceptance of the same that is killing the corporate Boy Scouts. Most troops are independent and unfortunately will suffer the consequences regardless. There is no excuse for using a position of authority to abuse a kid. What is also unfortunate is that the media is complicit because there is no differentiation between what happened in some places vs what happens in most. Everyone is guilty and every scout was molested. Those of us that were part of a Boy Scout troop and had good experiences are irrelevant or in denial.

@goliathtree A very good and peaceful movement will disappear, because of a few f*cking creeps. 😕

@helenS Agreed. Those creeps and anyone who enabled them deserve punishment and contempt. The generalizations that are occurring now are incredibly bothersome.

@goliathtree Same with the Catholic Church. Their good reputation is ruined by a small minority of child abusers.

@helenS There is a difference though. Churches are not independent of the main church and those child abusers were assigned (and many times reassigned to hide them) by the upper echelon. Most Boy Scout troups are independent.
