Got Something to Say?

How old are they when they get the badge for praying the gay away?

parents should require eagle prior to DL. it worked

hokie - that's the thing. being anti-gay may be a part of BSA's agenda as a whole, but those sentiments don't really trickle down to the community level. there's too many other things to learn about citizenship, helping others, and fun activities to focus on.

that's a bit harsh. have you gotten a deer yet?

harsh-so is life....

no deer yet, not been, or even shot crossbow..... pre-baby focus, 4wks out....

muzzle loader & gun coming soon! hoping other hunters get em spooked, maybe they will hideout on my property

word. I had my bow drawn for 5 does last night, but they never stopped moving long enough for me to get a shot off. I WILL get one this year.

you doing the right thing..scouting is a great thing for young men and dont let these progressive piece of shits who have no tolerance for otehrs beliefs telly uo that you must accept and teach your child that being a homosecual is great.

I think homosexuality has lots of negative aspects that tarnish our culture.. Just like having multiple wives and abortion.

It's our right as citizens to assemble and be around those that we aggree and relate with

I dont expect the queen at the gay parade to be a staright white dude from maine...I expect a drag queen from NY that looks half man half women.

Pollitics are for adults let kids be kids..

Oh but dont tell them santa claus is real thats an evil cruel joke to be played on kids..We must always involve children in adult topics that cant grasp

So, was giving each other hand jobs at boy scout camp gay?

All those straight kids sure knew how to give handy. I thought it was for a merit badge.

^ Baser come on why you BLOWING the cover. We keep boy scouts "gay free" just so we can take advantage of these young boys ourselves.

more deetz on the handy's?? Did you sew the merit badge to a special pair of underwear?

Right now polls are:

10% of these kids had both parents

65% had only one parent

20% were adopted and didn't know who mom and daddy are

2.5% were curious sick little weirdo kids

2.5% normal kids who just go with the flow and follow the crowd

so as you can see from this scientific POLE. Is that there's very little hope for most of these kids giving HJ's in the first place. Then Baser comes in with a loaf of beefsteak and now it's a sticky mess.

We as society need to focus on the 2.5% that follow the crowd. If we keep the gay types out (soccer players this means you) then we have a hope for those young boys.

Fudge tunnel sex doesn't give gramps a foootballl player.

After reading the story about this kid being denied his eagle scout rank, I wouldn't be signing my son up for cub scouts regardless of whether or not he's old enough to understand. Not saying whats right for me is right for Freds family but I thouht it was pretty sad and I would not have my children representing that organization. I also found out that BSA gets preferential access to federal land. That should stop here.

Hi, this is a tough one for me, because i am heavily envolved in scouting. I was a scout all my life, and had the fortunate oppuritunity to work at an amazing camp. Now 34 and with a son of my own, i have the blessing of being able to go back and work there again. The expiernces my son gets to have there are amazing, and being an everyother weekend dad, the fact i get my son for the whole summer and get to spend it at camp with him is awesome.

I can tell you most people that work there are ok with gays, the scouts say no to them.

But troops are left to make their own decisions, troops are usually sponsored by churches and thus the churches values decide whats allowed in there troop. But if an individual troop was ok with a gay scout then the scout can stay. So really its up to those in your community involved in the program. If you dont like the way the local troop is ran, have some kids, join scouts, and make the troop what you want it to be.

I never did the Scouts thing when I was younger. It never really appealed to me at the time. I think it was all the meetings and having to wear those goofy uniforms that made me never want to join.

It was always the nerdy kids that seemed to be in the Scouts when I was a kid.

I felt the same way when I was a kid. Just didn't seem like fun. My dad was into it when he was young but he never pushed me to do it.

For sure. Sports were just more appealing to me. Or riding bikes and skateboards and sll that good stuff.
