The recent ruling in New Jersey saying that the Boy Scouts should be forced to have scout leaders who profess to be homosexuals, brings new meaning to their motto . . . Be Prepared.

Anyone who cares about these young boys enough to want to “lead” them, certainly would want to protect and defend their innocence and virtue. We must give this man, who fought for eight years to be reinstated as scout leader, the benefit of the doubt, and assume that he would want to teach the little boys about sexual predators who target children for molestation. He would want to teach them about how to protect themselves against unwanted advances.

You know, don’t take candy from strangers, don’t get in a car with anyone you don’t know. This might even give the Boy Scouts a reason to create another merit badge designed to teach young boys to use weapons effectively for protection against predators when walking alone or camping out. After all, Girl Scouts learn self-defense.

So if this man’s intentions are as pure as he claims, and he wants only what is best for these young boys, then I am sure he won’t mind training them to take seriously their motto… Be Prepared.
