    As an eagle scout, I'm kinda butt hurt about this...
    Depending on how butt hurt you are will depend on the settlement

    The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) filed for bankruptcy in 2020 after several U.S. states enacted laws letting accusers sue over decades-old abuse allegations. The organization ultimately reached a settlement, approved in court in 2022, that would pay abuse victims amounts ranging from $3,500 to $2.7 million.

    The settlement involves more than 82,000 men who have said they were abused as children by troop leaders while in the Boy Scouts. More than 86% of abuse survivors voted to support the agreement in bankruptcy court.

    I'm well aware of the lawsuits
    I'll give you props for the pun though .
    My troop withered away after my scout master passed about 5 years ago. Those allegations never really popped up back in the day and there's no way for proof back then to now... its sad it happened, I'm sure it did with sick people as we all know are in this world but boyscouts used to mean something and it's sad it's dwindled to its current state

    I couldn’t resist.

    I’m the kid that threw rocks at a hornets nest and ran.

    Our local troop disbanded after about 80 years.
