In response to "That is uncalled for. -- nm*" by Spawn

I disagree. For an organization supposedly teaching young males honor, that crowd showed the opposite of Scout values yesterday.

Trump owns what Trump said/did, but the BSA owns how their people reacted.

*Children* listening to the most powerful man in the world in a hyped up crowd. Cut them some slack. -- nm - Spawn Jul 25, 08:01 7
- No. They learned to react that way someplace. -- nm - ty97 Jul 25, 08:02 6
  - (and the crowd was not just children) -- nm - ty97 Jul 25, 08:03 5
    - you're right. But you don't put this on the children. The Scout leadership from the top to the bottom there failed those kids. -- nm - Remlik Jul 25, 08:04 4
      - That was exactly my point. BSA needs to own why their troops acted that way. -- nm - ty97 Jul 25, 08:11
      - Yup. The kids took their cues from the scout leaders and others in charge. -- nm* - Krusty Jul 25, 08:04 2
        
        exactly. my exgf who is a Scout leader beacuse her son is an Eagle was horrified... - Remlik Jul 25, 08:11 1
        
        Yeah, the only way I would let Logan join was if *I* "joined" with him. - Spawn Jul 25, 08:13
