as a consumer, i can choose to not support groups like Scouts that want to use my children for their ulterior motives. i certainly hope as a taxpayer they arent getting funding for their programs.

like someone said above, insert {jew, muslim, black, chinese} and there would be an outrage.

You didn't know it because it is not a big deal. They are not in any way overt on any of this. It is a great place for kids to learn new skills. If you choose to have limited tolerance I guess you could make the case that your child will have limited experiences....
