Opinion of the Boy Scouts

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Thought it might change soon, as of now it is very clearly a Horrible Organization.

Massive Freedom Organization.  They do a lot of great work, whatever you may think about them not allowing homosexuals.

[Darth Maul]

HP because there annoying IDC about the gay stuff.

Horrible Organization because of their discriminatory policies.

Horrible Organisation because the World Scouting Organisation does not say a thing about gay members and gay scouts and leaders can be open and active in most other western scouting organisations. However the BSA have the gall to claim that their stance is integral to 'scouting values.' If the BSA is not fit to uphold the real values of the scouting movement, it deserves to disband so that a better group can be formed to take those values forward.

Nasty little de facto Christian, anti-gay organization of indoctrination into archaic "traditional" morals.  Go to the Wikipedia page and just take a look at the top 10 chartered organizations associated with the Boy Scouts.  Six religious sects and the PTA? 

Disgusting.  I pretty sure most parents can teach better values than these ****ers.

The boy scouts suck. The girl scouts on the other hand...

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Gay, I should know, I was once a Bear-Scout.

Hmmm... Let's look at this. Of the "Scouts" I know, I wouldn't call any of them bad people. As well, of the two "Scout courts of honor" or whatever I've gone to (one for a friend, another a family member), the "Scout Masters" don't seem like bad people either. As well, from what I remember of the merit badgers, none of them involve doing bad things to people though I may be wrong on that point. As well, the question must be asked, "does the organization the Boy Scouts of America encourage folks to do bad things?", and I can't really say yes to that. The stereotype is quite the opposite, and I have to say that seems backed up by real life. So I'll go with "Freedom Organization".
