Boy Scouts of America started to accept women into its “Cub Scouting and Scouts BSA programs” five years ago and currently serves over 176,000 girls and young women, the organization said.

Sounds deliberately vague, fuzzy, smiley and sickly sweet.

Same kind of tactics predators use.

DefiantMassRINO:
