Road trip, part 2

Here's another interesting thing i saw on the road coming back from the mountains yesterday.



I was curious as to whether the Boy Scouts, who have policies in place relating to the presence of homosexuals in their organization, also have policies in place regarding supporters of slavery and of nations which declared war on the United States of America. The logo on the trailer does not say, "Boy Scouts of America," although the fleur-de-lis is very similar to the official BSA logo. So i've sent this letter to the local BSA Council which encompasses Manassas, VA. I'll post the response when i get it.

Hi - i took the picture attached over the weekend on Highway 85 near Greensboro, North Carolina. Can you confirm whether or not the named troop is a member in good standing of the Boy Scouts of America, specifically the National Capital Area Council?

The trailer did not say "Boy Scouts of America" on it, but it does use a symbol very close to the official Boy Scouts fleur-de-lis?

If they are in good standing, can you confirm that it is official BSA policy to allow the use of the Confederate Battle Flag in promoting any BSA activities? If they are not members, do you have a policy regarding the misleading use of BSA symbols?

Sincerely,
