    Doomed.

    The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

    As a boy scout from an intense boy scout family .....

    I think the current scouts are in a horrible position.

    I believe they are trying to be neutral in a very divided country.

    The right doesn't want to send their kids to the what they see as the PC scouts where their kid may turn gay.

    The left doesn't want to send their kids to scouts worrying that the leaders of a troop may be ultra-conservative and not tolerant. I know the organization is now tolerant, but some of the old guard maybe not so much.

    To top if off, the kids just want to play video games.

    I disagree because your image defames the Scouts which I was a member of and it offends me. Were you a boy scout?

    You disagree to be spiteful, how nice, grow up.

    Think it is time to bring Rule 6 into this post.
    Rule 6) This forum is about US Coins. If your post is not directly related to US Coins then this is the wrong forum. Do not post it or your posting privileges may be removed.

    To wit - when I said, "the problem with social engineering is that the social engineers don't always know what the outcome is going to be, and their motives aren't always the best either." A fairly innocuous statement.

    The very next post, in a nod to political correctness suggested that the thread be removed. That, my friend is what political correctness is about. And fascism isn't far behind.

    What I am saying is this is not the right forum for this subject, and personel attacks by members lead to bannings.

    @1940coupe I disagreed with the picture the first time it was posted and when you posted another version of it. I presume since I was consistent in disagreeing the first time a variant was posted, you don't have the same problem with my disagree as you did with @ErrorsOnCoins disagree?

    And, for what it is worth, I personally hated Boy Scouts when I was a member but I am incredibly proud that one of my sons achieved Eagle status.

    Mark
