Pro-Transgender Boy Scout Leader Slams President Trump For Politics
‘I want to extend my sincere apologies to those in our Scouting family who were offended by the political rhetoric that was inserted into the jamboree, ” said a statement from Michael Surbaugh, the chief scout executive for the Boy Scouts of America. He continued:
The apology was prompted by widespread complaints from anti-Trump parents and groups about the president’s rambunctious speech, during which the huge crowd of youths chanted “We Love Trump.” Some progressives complained the speech looked like a ‘Hitler Youth” rally, effectively describing American scouts as younNazisis.
He also insisted the focus of the boy scouts organization has not changed:
In fact, Surbaugh has helped to flip the core mission of the boy scouts organization from a focus on helping boys to mature into self-reliant, confident and patriotic men, towards the tasks of marketing progressive claims to teenagers boys.
In January, for example, after a few weeks of secret debate by its corporate-dominated governing board, Surbaugh accepted and established the progressive claim that boys’ biology is not a guide to their sex, character, or adulthood life. That message was built into his announcement that anyone can join the boy scouts if they claim to have a male “gender identity, ” regardless of their biology. He said:
In July 2015, the scouting organization also ditched its original focus on helping young boys mature into fathers by accepting scout leaders who say they are gay. That acceptance effectively endorsed the progressive demand that homosexuality should get the same level of social status as heterosexuality.
The 2015 decision was welcomed by pro-gay groups as a gain in social status: “For decades, the Boy Scouts of America’s ban on gay adults has stood as a towering example of explicit, institutional homophobia in one of America’s most important and recognizable civic organizations … it is difficult to overstate the importance of today’s announcement, ” said a statement by a group called “ Scouts for Equality .”
The scouting group’s board is dominated by progressive-leaning corporate executives, including Randall Stephenson, CEO of AT&T, which is now lobbying against a Texas bill to protect the sexual privacy of K-12 kids, amid pressure by transgender groups to allow boys into girls’ bathroom and shower facilities. “CEOs and top executives from more than a dozen major Dallas-based corporations — including American Airlines, AT&T and BNSF Railway — delivered letters to [GOP leaders] decrying the bathroom bill as a proposal that would “seriously hurt the state’s ability to attract new businesses, investments and jobs, ” according to the Texas Tribune .
Some of the scout leaders are eager to ditch evolved and proven social practices. For example, Gregory Nelson, the Mountain Bike program director at Boy Scouts of America, posted this May 2016 progressive message on the organization’s website:
The leftward lurch of the scouting organization has spurred much criticism and the creation of a rival organization. According to Todd Starnes, a host of Fox News & Commentary:
