If his Eagle committee feels the Scout has lived up to those points, he should earn the award.
What kind of petty bullshit is this? Taking away a boy's badges because of a disability? What, he isn't good enough for this group? I suggest they look up federal definitions of discrimination-and fast. They're going to lose this lawsuit, pronto.
Good for him for only wanting a $1. Proves his reasoning is honest and just. He clearly is not looking for a pay out. I hope he wins on principal alone. They should be ashamed. They need to build people up, not tear them down.
I'd say the Boy Scouts are the ones with the disability. Unfortunately lack of empathy and being emotional devoid are not recognized or protected disabilities.
Another fine Christian organization that doesn’t discriminate, but is the victim of oppression because they’re Christian. YAWN.

Boy scouts suck
Your update completely contradicts your headline, Tweet and original story. So what IS the TRUTH? Were his badges stripped, or not? Can he become an Eagle Scout, or not? Do you care one iota about reporting factually, or not? Pull this if it is wrong and rewrite it!
Good for him!
Very bad decision by the “adults” involved here. The father is doing the right thing.
The article says his project was modified and not approved. That’s it. That’s all it says. Rules.
Should have pretended to be a girl with down syndrome.
