Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica C O I N a silver dollar COMMEMERATIVE - 2010 Geither approved it. per COIN WORLD Magazine today... Gee, I wonder if GIRL SCOUTS of Omerica will have a BOY on it! :111::111::111: The bottom line is that a BOY SCOUTS coin has a GIRL on it - even though the girl scouts have their own organization. http://www.scouting.org/ http://www.girlscouts.org/ I think they are different...

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica Uhm, I can't make any sense of your post. Whats wrong with "girl on boy"? You'd prefer "boy on boy"? or "girl on girl"?

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica Sorry :signs14::36_1_32v::yes: the COIN is a BOY SCOUTS of AMERICA $1 siver 2010 they added a GIRL on it even though they have an organization called GIRL SCOUTS of AMERICA. I hope that helps. It's in the COIN WORLD magazine today. Imagine having a coin celebrating the Blacks, Orientals, or Caucasions: and having the other(s) protrayed? Same thing: it would be okay as long as it wasn't the ????

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica All I can figure is that it must be some kind of Den Mother, but I thought that was only for Cub Scouts. I don't recall having any women around in Boyscouts. Still a really stupid design. Glad I made it thru Boyscouts before the "political correctness" wave hit. Was fun to camp, shoot rifles, use bow and arrow, and just do "boy" stuff. We didn't have to worry about girls, aethiests, gays, etc.

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica They had a really good design that showed a boy scout in an old 1920's uniform helping a boy scout in a moden uniform climb a mountain. Guess we can't have anything that harkens back to a more self reliant era. This version is about as bad as the Plat eagle was.

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica If they didn't include both sexes it wouldn't be very effective. For race-mixing propaganda to be effective you need to have a male and a female of different races.

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica Lord Baden Powell in the background with an Eagle Scout, Boy Scout and Cub Scout in the foreground would be a better representation. The Girl Scouts deserve their own coin! As for that image in the background, I'll bet Rosa Parks is turning over in her communist grave at the idea of him being in the back. Next will be a coin honoring "aspiring young rap artists" who were lost in the line of fire.:36_3_16:

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica I am much interested if they have a UHR design too. wait a minute. Do they have those girls or boys in the 2009 Platinum eagle coin? I have no problem at if all of them are boys or girls. Well, one for boy and one for girl, since I guess the 2010 designers lack the necessary imagination.bancha

Woman are involved in all aspects of scouting for the most part. Our pack has no political correctness and we still do all the cool stuff. camp, rifles, bow and arow, hicking. We strive to teach them alot that that they do not learn in school. if anyone has a problem with our pack we ask them very politly there are many other packs in the area that may be a better fit for them. It is what the leaders make of it. Just thaught you would like to know there ar still packs out there just like when you and I were a kid(for the most part of course)

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica I'll buy the bejeezes out of this issue. there are probably lots of old scouts out there that will buy this issue also.

True, it was signed into law under Bush, but the actual design was selected under Obama. From http://www.silvercoinstoday.com/2010...esigns/101843/ Quote:
The US Mint originally created 17 obverse (heads side) and 5 reverse designs for consideration with themes that were mandated by law to be "emblematic of the 100 years of the largest youth organization in United States, the Boy Scouts of America." The winning two designs were selected by Treasury Timothy F. Geithner on Sept. 16, according to a Mint statement.
The same article also mentions a Girl Scout coin for 2013... I'm guessing it won't have a boy on it. Quote:
Girl Scouts Silver Coins will be issued by the US Mint in 2013 thanks to the Girl Scouts USA Centennial Commemorative Coin Act President Obama signed into law on Oct. 29, 2009.

I started out in Tiger Cubs which was for the real little tikes too young for Cub Scouts. My mother(only parent raising me) was one of the group leaders along with a few fathers. After "graduating" into cub scouts, my mother was was a Den leader as there weren't enough "men" willing to take on that role. Sure enough after our Cub Master left the Troop due to his son getting older and moving on, NO ONE in the troop stepped up to take his role...So you guessed it, my Mother(passionate, hard worker) stepped up to the plate and became the only known female Troop Master at that time. Im proud to say that I am proud of my Mother and the "guts" she has for taking on such a contraversial role and being great at it, while the other fathers didn't even make so much as an effort. My mom single handedly saved that Troop and for that she should be praised!:36_3_13: Having said all of that however, for "them" to put a woman on the Boy Scout coin is quite inappropriate.

So why does the coin specify "Boy Scouts"? Why not a generic "salute" to "Scouting," especially in this hyper-critical world of Political Correctness?

The reverse of the coin has the words 'Boy Scouts of America', the Boy Scout logo and motto. I'll venture to guess the Girl Scout coin will have a similar (same?) obverse and GSoA, GS logo and motto on the reverse. The tip off that the coin is a nod to all Scouts is the child depicted, two finger salute and striped kerchief, both Cub Scout affectations. As well as making it non-gender/race biased.

hydro | 01-08-2010 11:43 AM
Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica The coin covers the three basic programs of Boy Scouts: Cub Scouts: boys in grades 1 through 5 Boys Scouts: boys ages 11 through 17 Venturing/Exploring: co-ed ages 14 through 20. The Venturing program was started in 1998 and consist of posts or crews that focus on a specific career or hobby. Some crews focus on mountain climbing, Law Enforcement (I know two ex-Rangers that lead a crew), Sea Crews (usually in coastal cities and will always find a Naval Officer), and Aviation at regional airports (I know of several ex-Air Force and current commercial pilots that lead crews). Think of it as a college ROTC program. It�s a great program that teaches teamwork and professional interaction between the sexes. These kids have a lot of respect for each other, and the ones that do go on to a military career will take that with them. Because when the time comes to call in Close Air Support, you won�t give a shit about whose flying support to save your ass. :36_1_25: Oh yes, there are women combat pilots flying multi-million dollar aircraft, and the only piece of ass you are thinking about is getting yours out in one piece. :moon: I am with History Student and OldManSmith on this one. :bear_thumb: This coin will be big (100th anniversary) within the organization and there is much talk about it already. There are over 1.1 million adult volunteers and the U.S. Mint will only be issuing 350,000 coins. There are guys that pay big money for different Boy Scout patches, and these are just thread and cloth. So pick up as many coins as you can, and you will not have a hard time unloading them on some old timer after they are sold out. :36_1_34:

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica This is the 2nd time recently the recommendation of the CCAC has been "overruled" by PC punks in the administration (Giethner?), the 1st being the '09 proof plat. Extremely predictable, garlingly obvious what's going on... it seems they just cannot help themselves pushing and pushing the PC agenda. This coin may be 'big' or may not, but what's for certain is that it woud have had much greater potential if they simply would have respected the committee's original choice, which was a timeless design.

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica Amen. Sad how it (globalization/agenda etc.) can be glaringly obvious to those "in the know" while the sheep lap it up as if it were golden milk. This and the PT NWO design. It's part of the stepping stones approach (toward globalization) in the name of "equality" and "oneness".

Re: Obummer adds GIRL on BOY SCOUTS of Omerica Some interesting comments so far. The design could have been improved to say the least. The new penny design for this year is ugly too. So is anyone going to buy one or more???
