Boy Scouts Rescue Injured Woman

Attention Philadelphia City Council: this is the sort of thing that Boy Scouts do on a regular basis. Instead of condemning them, maybe you should be applauding them.

October 20, 2007 - A boy scout troop from Montgomery County came across a woman who fell from the pinnacle of a hiking trail Saturday afternoon. The boy scouts came across the injured woman and took action. They made a stretcher out of branches and their own clothing.

They put the woman on the gurney and were able to carry her 2 and a half miles to a location where an ambulance met them. A medical helicopter then transported the woman to a local area hospital.

The hospital tells Action News that the woman is suffering from head trauma, but is listed in good condition. (H/T - 6ABC)

This story must be an aberration. I mean, Philly's City Council told me the Boy Scouts are a bunch of gay bashers that deserve to be thrown out of the building they've resided in since 1928!

The worst part of this? No one from Philadelphia's City Council will think that effectively evicting the Cradle of Liberty Council is a mistake. Despicable.
