So...if the Scouts in your Troop feel that the federal and state
governments are immoral [no Bill Clinton jokes, now!], it's your job as
SM to instruct them in how to prepare for the arrival of the black

Sorry, abstract and high-sounding principles seldom translate well in
the real world. Besides, the true "revolutionaries" seldom last much
longer than the original revolution.
