This decision was made a while back, so it's not really new news.

But, let's be clear. It's the boomers who years ago raped young Boy Scouts, altar boys, etc.

The cost of being a Scout has skyrocketed in the last year due to massive insurance increases because of having to pay out all these settlements. It's more expensive than ever to be a scout, which is putting pressure on scout parents, and causing more kids to not be able to learn the values that Scouts teaches you.

All because some current boomers, 30-40 years ago, were sick individuals.

Why not just get a group of kids together with their parents and take them camping?

Teach them how to tie knots and stuff like that. Build a fire.

Stuff you should be doing with your kids anyway



Never got why you needed to have badges and shill popcorn to do that anyway

I wouldn't trust a fricking individual in the boy scout world who didn't directly have an active son involved what so fricking ever.

Scouts will cease to exist unfortunately in 5-10 years. They are mortgaging some of their camp properties to prepare to pay out on these sexual assault lawsuits. That with all the SJW crap and falling enrollment will take them to bankruptcy. Sad to see.

Lot of country boys have dads that do that.

City boys... not so much.

There's also a leadership development, and learning to work with others, dynamic that dad can't teach on a hunting trip.

Most kids who are in Scouts, especially Boy Scouts, aren't still playing sports. Most middle school / high school athletes, aren't still in Scouts.

What's the point of scouts now, anyway? Why even play outside when you can look at chicks fricking on your cell phone?

bullshite. It's the following generations and their politically correct insanity.

"It's got to be 'inclusive' with girls allowed in the BOY Scouts".

"Gay men have to be allowed to be Troop leaders."

"Trans people must be included in the BOY Scouts."

It's the pathetic excuses for humans the Boomers produced. So, yes, it is the Boomers who are at fault. If they hadn't raised such entitled little idiots and then allowed public schools to indoctrinate their stupid asses.

Do you use the term boomer in conversation? If you do, you no longer have to wonder why people look at you stupid when you talk.
