Is this going a little bit too far? You've got the American Boy Scouts being offered Counter-Terrorist training program or even anti-illegal immigration border patrol. Called the "Explorer's Program" the members of the Boys Scouts of America being put through such a training. At such a young age, do you think that this is just too early for them to earn the ropes? Personally, I am kinda uncomfortable with this types of programs remembering the Nazi Youth paramilitary approach. See in the photo in the story that they use airsoft guns in this type of training. I still prefer camping, first aid, sharing jokes at a camp fire, leadership skills and just meeting new friends. I would like this program just restricted to adults rather than the Boy Scouts.

Just imagine the thought of a Girl Scout knocking on your door selling cookies and what she has learned from the Scouting movement. Might as well give her your wallet just to shoo her away.

In one training module, eight boys and girls - the youngest 14 - face a tripwire, a thin cloud of poisonous gas and loud shots.
