Gotta teach them how poor people stay poor.
It's a good way to learn that begging for handouts on over priced crap by ambushing unexpecting people that show up at a location for a completely different product, is not a long term business model... unles you're Girl Scouts.

Correctly, you mean? Subject/verb agreement. OP was correct, and you sound like one of the people in Idiocracy. "He talks like a f@g."

I know.
First,they really price the popcorn to get a large donation from it.
I bought a box and since then I catch myself checking out dudes' asses in Wranglers. I hope Wrangler butts (and boy scout popcorn) don't drive me nuts.

They weren't downvoting your grammar.

They are probably just selling popcorn. I hope your vagina didn't get too hurt by seeing that kid out doing that horrible act. LOL

They're not begging. They're selling overpriced popcorn, just like the Girl Scouts sell overpriced cookies.
I haven't seen them yet this year, but I got hit up outside of Winn-Dixie last year. Scouting is a great program for kids, so I don't mind throwing a few bucks their way. I was shocked to find out that the cheapest bag of popcorn was 8 or 10 bucks. I asked if they took donations, and they did. I gave them a five because I couldn't bring myself to paying $8 or $10 for a $2 bag of popcorn.
My sister and brother in law have one son in the Cubs and one started Scouts this year. She has been involved in their Pack/Troop's popcorn fundraiser the past few years. Their Pack/Troop sold $22,000 of popcorn last year. The profits bought the pack and troop new/add'l equipment, paid expenses, and subsidized hikes, weekend trips and summer camps.
If you don't want to buy any popcorn, don't. Boy Scouts are out there hustling, but they're not aggressively panhandling. Tell them "No thank you" and their sales pitch stops.

believe that's incorrect since the Boy Scouts is a singular organization.
The LSU Tigers is going to play a game tonight.

Does a singular collective noun take a singular or plural verb? Well, it depends. If the collective noun refers to the group as a unit, then it takes a singular verb. If it refers to the individuals in the group or the parts that make up the group, then the verb should be plural.
Congratulations you're dumb, sorry you don't understand simple grammar.

Well it'd be weird if they started doing cookies too but maybe they could come up with something else for money.
And now I want Samoas.

Your thread title is stupid using "is" or "are".

That's always happened if they need something special. We had to sell candy to do the Klondike Derby.
