With all due respect, I think the poll numbers express our collective concern for your welfare in a battle royale with Scout. But you offer sage counsel nonetheless.
Thank you for always looking out for me, Cory. Were you at Tulane when I challenged one of my students to a foot race in that alley behind the English department? He kept talking about how fast he was so I told him to prove it. I was somewhere in my mid-30s and he was definitely 18. Thank God he didn't he didn't take me up on it!
In my defense, I’m very conscious of how the people I send out to fundraise are representing the group/cause. Some would react as you did to Scout’s early tactics… but others may now have a deep seeded hatred towards Scouting America due to Scout’s bombardment.
As I was reading last week’s post, all I could think was “Scout must be stopped!”
I'm curious what you have your band students tell people about what their donations are going towards. How much information are you giving them when they go out and do they know how to talk about it?
To be honest, I don't know what I would do as the variables and risk are rather high.
On another note, is your readership tagged to those who understand the nonprofit world and just beyond the US but perhaps abroad. I ask because sometimes, such incidences may be unique over here but could be very common elsewhere in the world. That is where a lot of the learning can happen.
