Can you imagine the NZ or Aussie Scouts under attack by the Left? I cannot.

Everyone who can help support the BSA should do so; be it large or small, time or money.

Bumping a great idea!

There were reports that the delagates spit on the Eagle Scouts as they were preparing for the flag ceremony.

That pretty much makes the call of bottomfeeders for me.

Hearty Congrats to you !

Thankyou for your kind regards. However, after today, I'm more of the opinion that it should be "condolences..." :)

Today was the day that my son started his project. He is doing a great job, but it requires dad to be at his beck and call for transportation needs and various and assundry tasks. Fortunately, he'll have it completed by Monday.

That said, I'm still extremely proud of my boy for doing all of this.

If these public schools have PTA's or PTO's, they could pick up the charter. But the National PTA has advised it's chapters not to sponsor Scout units, as a unit sponsor is responsible for checking out the unit leaders and the BSA refused to take the legal liability for this (in case the leader turned out to be a pervert) for the BSA.

Well, here's a good job for your son!!!

We need lots of Eagle Scouts in this country. Thanks for leading one to a beginning and sticking with it.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

Ever seen any class action efforts against ACLU for their effort to establish atheism, and to prohibit the free exercise of Judeo Christian religions?

The arguments seem to be that the absence of religion (atheism) is itself intrinsically religious, and that free exercise of religion is now limited to privately owned physical locations under strict regulation (in other words, no longer free).
