As an Eagle Scout who had a great troop with some of the best men I've ever met as leaders, this is so disappointing and upsetting to me.

I hope every piece of trash who abused young boys and girls gets their just desserts.

Shit. And to think that I almost joined the boy scouts when I was a kid. I'm glad I didn't.

I'm in the same boat. I enjoyed the hell out of my time in Boy Scouts and our troop never had any issues.

This will probably destroy the organization, which is sad, but not undeserved. The organization didn't do its due diligence despite knowing this was an issue for years. If having to own up to that destroys them, then so be it.

At first I thought "that number is way too big" so I did some digging and the claim form requires that you actually name individuals so it's probably legit. Lawyers were anticipating around 10-20k total by the deadline so 90k is way above what anyone expected.

The organization already filed for bankruptcy earlier in the year because of this. It is finished.

Oh I know. I figured they were dead before the number became known. Actually seeing the total number of cases, it is a guarantee.

I do hope that some, better run organization can come and replace it. I think there is still a place for an organization about, outdoorsmenship, conservation, and civic service.

Same, lol. Eagle scout and summer camp counselor of 5 years.

A lot of these claims are from events that took place more than 30 years ago (before the 90's, if not before the 80's), so the current generation of scouts and the previous generation we were a part of an era that sought to stymy these horrible events from occurring with a focus on things like Youth Protection Training and Two Deep Leadership, which basically empowered scouts to speak the fuck up about any abuse, and for two adults to be present whenever dealing with one child just to minimize the risk.

That the BSA thought to fix their issues internally instead of, you know, just throwing abusers into prison is where the fuck up lies. I'd as soon seen the previous admin/board who decided this be held responsible more than the current organization, because there's a lot of good the BSA promotes as well. The next-best options are all religious...

Defund boy scouts
But then who will teach our children how to read smoke signals or make an arrow out of twigs? Society will devolve into anarchy.
