I don't want this to become a debate over the merits or lack thereof of the scouts, however, I feel compelled to expand upon the reasoning that led us to the withdrawal.

We did NOT withdraw because of the leaders or the troop itself. They work very hard, and I had no problem with them. Nice people, for the most part. My issues are with the core of the organization and the way it has to operate, the rules it enforces and the core principles that it has adopted in the last 10 years or so don't work for me.

If you want more, PM, I'll expand fully. I won't do it out here in public.
