        First off, carrying the flag horizontally violates respect for the Flag Code.

        For crying out loud, Scouts in Canada has included girls since 1998 and all is well. In fact probably better.

        In every country that has Scouts except the UK, the US and Mexico, the programs are co-ed and work great. Its the US that's been in the dark

        Scouting is no longer relevant to American Society. It's a 1950s relic.

        Boys and girls aren't treated the same. Why is this a good idea?

        Because as we grow from innocence we lose our ability to just BE.
