The group’s leaders have brought on the Sidley Austin law firm to provide support in the event of a chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, sources familiar with the situation told the Wall Street Journal.

The potential move coincides with a decline in membership and mounting legal fees connected to a series of lawsuits related to the organization’s management of sexual abuse allegations.

Girl scouts don't want them, in fact they're trying to break their cookie off in the boy scouts' arse. LINK

Doesn't matter what they want. All they have to say is they identify as females.

What a sad day for America. The leftists destroyed it from within with homos and the feminazis destroyed it from the outside with lawsuits.

any entity that goes along with the SJW platform is destined to cease to exist, its a given, yet they never learn

That was the intent when they forced BSA to allow girls, gays, and trannies.
It's the same tactic that they will use to destroy all traditional American values.

"Inclusion", "Tolerance", and "Diversity" are, and have always been, no more than a tactic of cultural Marxism to destroy anything that stands in the way of Communism.

Wake up people.

The Boy Scouts of America is the only group which gives the Catholic Church a run for its money for attracting sexual predators and then covering up the abuse for decades.

It should be put out of business.

Yup. Infiltrate take over and destroy from within. Pretty much their game plan for every traditional American institution.

The thing is it's frightening just how successful they've been at it.

As an un-molested Eagle Scout, that was given the opportunity to hike the peaks of the Appalachian Trail, to canoe the frigid waters of the Nantahala River, and to steal beer from the Junior League's break room during service projects, I find this disappointing.

FWIW - I cant' tie a clove-hitch or sheep-shank to save my life.

2. How many predators were operating within the Boy Scouts?

The Scouts have refused to release any of the so-called “perversion files” maintained after 1985, arguing that confidentiality makes it easier for victims to come forward.

“We’re talking 6,000 files, of which only 1,800 have been released,” Penn said.


And that’s just the boys who reported abuse.

AJC Boy Scouts of America Sexual Predator Rings

1800 documented Sexual Abuse cases BEFORE 1985 and the Boy Scouts of America are refusing to give information over an additional 4200 documented abuse cases involving any case AFTER 1985.

I would say this organization needs to be dismantled because the only Gay Rights Stance they held dearly onto was their acceptance of allowing Male Adults Pedophiles to prey on young boys.

Thats a nice meme and all, but teachers puts both of those to shame when attracting predators. Should they be put out of business?

So. You mean to tell me that when you force an organization to no longer operate in the manner that made it successful because a bunch of pussies whined about it...…….you destroy the organization and, the pussies who whined didn't really amount to enough people to matter in the first place?

The frick you say!!!

If the abuse isn't reported in a school and the administrators know about it they all go to jail. The Boy Scouts of America do not have such a law on the books which is why they have covered this stuff for decades and continue to cover it up.

I'm sure this made sense to you, but fail.

The same law that covers teachers and knowing about abuse but doing nothing applies to boy scout leaders also.

The fact that it's hard to prove people knew about a thing doesn't change the law.
