So now the Boy Scouts want to be tRump acolytes? Good luck with that. The scout masters own

the shame of allowing tRump to abuse children this way. tRump can't help himself, he is a sick perverted narcissistic ass who is desperately trying to avoid being imprisoned.

Why is it that the Scouts go from one dumbass thing to another. When I was in the Scouts, it was not a political organization with an agenda of exclusion. At least that's how I remember it. Now they go from the controversy of who is Christian enough to who is too gay to now cheering one political figure and booing another.

These are, mostly, children. Stop using and abusing them for political ends. This is every bit as bad as priests having their way with children, it will damage them forever. They need to be allowed to be kids, safe, happy and secure from the volatility of adult dumbassery.

I certainly hope they denounce his ridiculous "speech" yesterday. For gawd's sake, the man is a grandfather of eight. Is this how he talks to children?

On edit: This is what they released: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10029368811

Not good enough.
