R.I.P. Boys Scouts of America

[PJ] Wokeness has finally succeeded in destroying a formerly great organization. After 114 years, the Boy Scouts of America is changing its name to Scouting America.
Somewhere in the heavens, Rockwell silently weeps.
"The organization steeped in tradition has made seismic changes after decades of turmoil, from finally allowing gay youth to welcoming girls throughout its ranks," reports the Associated Press. "With an eye on increasing flagging membership numbers, the Irving, Texas-based organization announced the name change Tuesday at its annual meeting in Florida."

The Boy Scouts of America has faced some tough challenges over the years, including sexual abuse claims that ultimately forced the organization into bankruptcy. In an effort to rebuild, the organization went woke, abandoning tradition in the name of "inclusivity."

In 2013, the organization initiated a policy change, allowing the inclusion of gay youth. This was followed by the lifting of the blanket ban on gay adult leaders two years later. Then, in 2017, it announced that girls would be welcomed into Cub Scouts starting in 2018 and into the main Boy Scout program, which was rebranded as Scouts BSA, in 2019. In 2020, the Boy Scouts publicly supported the leftist agenda with the creation of a new "diversity" badge that clandestinely pushes both radical gender theory and critical race theory. To make matters worse, the badge was made a requirement for prospective Eagle Scouts.

#4  The BSA had to be destroyed. The Left could never realize their aims with BSA turning out thousands of rugged, self reliant God fearing citizens. God and Country removed from the uniform crest and the bandana tie is now the Rainbow Flag. Satan be like: "damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!"

#3  -Taught me to start a fire in a Chicago blizzard with a bow.
-Taught me water discipline in the AZ desert.
-Taught me how to hump a pack of food and shelter 30 miles, and tread lightly.
-Taught me to fish, swim and canoe in north Wisconsin, in May.
-Taught me knots, ropes, climbing, rappelling and rescue in the Rockies.
-Taught me to appreciate night and rain as cover.
-Taught me to quietly observe, then project confidence to disrupt pack behavior.

Then I went to high school.

#2  I was in and out of the Cub Scouts as a kid because my parents didn't like some of the people involved. That was in the 60s.

#1  The gays and the judiciary killed it years ago when they force them to retract their morally straight stance. Then the law suits for child exploitation caused by those who had wormed themselves into the organization bankrupted them.
