Grinch thugs rob Boy Scouts

Two scouts from BSA Troop 393,who were selling Christmas trees with their fathers in a Cincinatti suburb were assaulted Monday night by three men brandishing sawed off shotguns and robbed of $350.Both adults and one of the boys were punched & knocked down by the thugs,who were brazen enough not to even bother wearing masks!I have to ask,what kind of assholes rob Boy Scouts at gunpoint?Luckily,no one was seriously injured and a local businessman has offered money to replace the funds that were stolen.The Boy Scouts is a top notch organization and doubtless had these criminals been involved with Scouting as youths,they might have turned out quite differently.My little brother was in the Scouts for many years and the values and skills he gained from that affiliation have continued to benefit him.These kids work their butts off to raise funds for their activities and it burns my ass that someone would take that away from them,especially this time of year!
