This is my nine year old grandson, lifting me in a tractor bucket.

Want me to have him hold a class on runnin' equipment for your group?

I hope nothing but the best for you and your Scout Group, I never meant to personally offend you.

Now, this is where I part ways with you, as it only gets much worse from here...

Best of luck, sir.

What's the point? What if I link a case about poachers out west. Do you then want to have a discussion about how the entire community of hunters is trash?
Poaching and molesting children aren't exactly the same but I get what you're attempting to say.

My point is that systemic abuse in any organization is a problem and boy scouts is one of them with that huge stain. Sure there are great men and children in there, just like the Catholic Church, but any place with a history of abuse is a place I want nothing to do with.

And I'm a Libertarian so completely good with anyone with a different opinion or freedom to do whatever they like within the confines of the law. I appreciate your dedication to the outfit, it's just an organization I have no use for.

Sure. Mebbe sewin' up an old dog got cut by a pig, mebbe a gaping turtle wound if you trapped in the swamp, or a nice new pair of curtains for the Mrs. Lots of applications. It's just the patch on the vest part that gits me.
Yep. Iffn you don’t know how to sew when you get to Paris Island you know how when you leave.

I think sometimes its just the type of camping you do that can make or break the training. If you wanna make your kids hardcore then you gotta give em hardcore experiences. Like if they get mouthy load em up in the truck and drive em thirty miles out into the desert with a bottle of water and a compass and tell em have a nice trip home. One time is all it takes.

No. If I had to that I’d go the iron on route I reckon. But then again, I gots a lady that has a better touch for things like that

Grandma taught me how to sew a tear up. And how to sew a button on
