Compass, Broken; 1 each.
Once upon a time this was a useful instrument for pointing the direction a boy should go.
Today, not so much - as the needle has fallen off and rendered the tool into a directionally errant piece of plastic memorabilia.

I encouraged youngsters to get into scouting for my whole life but now it will be to get into a safer better alternate to BSA

The Knights of Columbus have one called the squires.
We live in the golden age of the pervert and the sick.
Fag lover Robert Gates got exactly what he wanted.
Still astounded at how 3% of the population can continue to roll the rest of us in this manner.
The churches may be able to hold out, for a while...but there are many units not affiliated with churches who will face the wrath of the pink fascists...
I’m in my waning months with the BSA...if it hadn’t been for a couple of boys that “grew up” in my Troop working to finish Eagle and a friend asking me to stay on, I would have been out last year.
Our Troop will probably have no choice but we will have to discuss with our Charter Org to see what options we have since we’re not with a church.
Political correctness, tv shows, movies, etc. that promulgated how “innocent” homosexuality is.
Took them a couple of decades, but like the Chinese, they were persistent...
The homo fascists have many allies...especially women.
NAMBLA is thrilled at this new pathway to pubescent boys.
I haven't flown in years, but that experience instilled a sense of responsibility and good judgment in me at that early age, and it has paid lifelong dividends. Sadly, I look at many of the utterly clueless teens today and can't imagine them being responsible enough to act as Pilot in Command of anything. For those who have been raised correctly, however, soaring youth camps are still a great idea.
P.S. - I keep thinking about getting back into the sport. There are some nice LS-4s out there that can be had for a reasonable price.
Most likely 1-2% of the population.
They will have to take “morally straight” out of the oath.
“BSA is too valuable to give up just because of a temporary gain by these evil perverts.”
Problem is.. none of these gains are “temporary.”
The end of the BSA. Try Trail Life.
BSA is so dead.
It’s over . . .time to form a splinter group.
And you haven't been sued by the queer lobby yet?
With the cell phones, microwaves, video games, gmo foods, a perverted media, and a dysfunctional education system. . .there may not be any boys left to join anything.
As the mother of a proud Eagle Scout (2009) I sadly hope and pray that BSA will disband under the weight of their liability and perversion. This is sickening.
