My Dad was our Cub Scout Scoutmaster. Nothing Wrong was tolerated. After a season following the BSA book, I concluded that I was learning nothing new and and dropped out. Dad then exited also.
Those were the good old days before TV and computers.

No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor. (a)The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property. (b)The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water, or merchandise. (c)The flag should never be carried flat or horizontally, but always aloft and free. (d)The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker’s desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general. (e)The flag should never be fastened, displayed, used, or stored in such a manner as to permit it to be easily torn, soiled, or damaged in any way. (f)The flag should never be used as a covering for a ceiling. (g)The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature. (h)The flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything. (i)The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard. Advertising signs should not be fastened to a staff or halyard from which the flag is flown. (j)No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart. (k)The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.

Sorry for y'all boys who don't like Boy Scouts. I was in for 6 years, including Explorers and I loved it. Loved going on campouts and shooting the rifles at summer camp. Learned how to tie all the knots including the bowline, and I still use that knowledge on a daily basis. Never saw or heard of any perverts.
And I was taught proper respect for the flag. "...should not be embroidered on handkerchiefs."

Nothing wrong with that. Just like the flag on his ball cap.

If these decisions were forced upon the management then they are not to blame.Blaming the boy scouts for the actions of homosexual pedophiles is akin to blaming a gun for the actions of a criminal when he uses a gun in the commission of a crime.Once the management of the Scouts discovered these crimes it was incumbent upon the management to remove and legally punish the perpetrators.
The same can be said of the Catholic Church.The homosexual pedophiles are to blame for their crimes against children.Until the church discovered these crimes they remained blameless.Once they uncovered these crimes they had an obligation to remove these homosexual pedophiles from the church.When they refused to remove these perverts,at that point they had to assume culpability and deserve all retribution taken against the church.

A while ago there was a fire department in Florida that was ordered to take the American flags off thier engines. Not because the flag was offensive.....but people were offended by HOW the flag was displayed. Some old boy scout or something didn't think they were displayed properly....in accordance to the code. So, they took em down.

The bubba fire dept here was taking the whole station out to lunch the other day, they use the snorkel pumper cause it hauls about four guys. That and another rescue truck, all parked at the pizza hut buffet, In the rain
They were sporting some flags on the back, road grime and dirty water all back there, flags looked like dishrags.
I believe Food Lion has reversed this decision since they received so much negative feedback from their customers.
The Food Lion in the news is in Havelock, NC. It's the home of USMC Cherry Point Air Station. The move about the flag offending someone was as stupid as pizzing on an electric fence. There's a Walmart in Havelock also so how many active and retired Marines will not shop at the FL? There was a restaurant in New Bern on US 70 that refused to allow a disabled vet bringing his support dog in. It went out of business PDQ.

The Catholic Priest I asked about it said the church didn't do anything about it because the priest were acting as Jesus would.

A mask, a lapel pin, a hat, a helmet, a skate board, a pair of sneakers, etc, are NOT PART of THE FLAG. Unless they were actually made from an official American Flag.

A very, very tiny proportion of all scout masters and leaders and whose conduct violated scouting policy, in no way calls into question the rest of the teachings of the organization.
