  1. Actually, the CO is the one who removes a leader. The unit can't do this without the CO. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  2. I'm in the same camp as Hunt on this one. If a Scout has a POR & does nothing but has the POR for the required time for rank, I don't think that is serving actively. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  3. Let's not get nuts here. Exactly! Common sense must prevail!
  4. The dogs really helped out with "Leave No Trace"!
  5. I dunno! A public restroom is just that - public. If I go in & then a Scout comes in? I'm all for youth protection but does it apply everywhere? Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  6. Easy. Tell this family they are no longer welcome. Give them their registration fees back. Contact your CO & get them up to speed. Have the CO write a letter to your DE & Council to have their membership revoked. Request your DE advise all the other units in your district about this family. This can be done via Roundtable. Good luck. I'll keep your unit in my prayers. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  7. Ahh but you can "fire" a volunteer! Especially if the unit is suffering because of them. Sounds like that is the case. The SM really needs to set the tone. If he is going to let this guy continue then that is also part of the problem. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  8. I'm in the "it's the Scout's responsibility to get their requirements signed off" camp. After all, they are the ones advancing, not us. There are times if a Scout(s) seem to not be moving along, I will have the PL or SPL review their handbook. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  9. Yes there are; what happens if an atheist student wants to join a unit chartered by the school? Give it a rest, Merlyn. Joining a private organization isn't a right - it's a privilege! It would be really nice if you understood the difference. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  10. tj, I'm not wondering. I already know the answer. Nothing. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  11. Assistant Patrol Leader isn't a POR that can be used for rank advancement. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  12. Why does it not amaze me that you would try to hold a scout to higher values than adults. If you are referring to me, dan, I don't think you understand. I hold the Scout to the same values I hold the adult to. Not higher. Equal. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  13. Excellent Seattle! Sounds like a great time! Great idea, too! Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  14. GopherJudy, I'll bet they are. Vicki, Make sure the DO you are bidding on is a cast iron one. The aluminum ones don't heat evenly & can warp. If you have a Sam's Club near you they usually have good deals on Lodge cast iron cooking gear. You can cook anything outdoors you can cook indoors. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10 (Edited by Ed for formatting) (Ed and I reached an agreement, he is back OGE)(This message has been edited by a staff member.)(This message has been edited by evmori)
  15. Prairie, I'm not a Biblical literalist and I don't believe we (humans) evolved from animals. In the Bible, God created man from dust. Nowhere does it state God grabbed a monkey made it a man. So in answer to your question, no. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  16. The BSA could have decided that BSA units chartered to government agencies would not discriminate - but they didn't. Instead, the BSA decided not to charter units to government agencies. Would you have preferred the former decision? That's because the BSA refuses to compromise it's morals & values. Something you wouldn't understand, Merlyn. Neither does the ACLU. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  17. Fuzzy, Nice conversation. Too bad it isn't realistic. dan, The Scout is also in the "blame" column. He know what the requirements are. Everyone is at fault here. And it needs to be stopped ASAP. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  18. Sorry pack. Still don't buy the theory of evolution. Nice try, though. I have to question why an organization like NAMBLA is even allowed to exist! Isn't having sexual relations with an underage youth a crime? And isn't that what they advocate? Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  19. I posted a bylaw a while back & no one ever responded! I do smell something! Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  20. Not unscoutlike at all, I told Ed and Bob not to post in this thread anymore and I meant it. I did not mean to imply Ed posted did anything scoutlike OGE (This message has been edited by a staff member.)
  21. We are trying to answer "So, What's so bad about being gay?" I propose we answer with "So, What's so good about being gay?" Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10
  22. (This message has been edited by a staff member.)
  23. Then put me in the foolish camp! Right beside the founder of Scouting!
