Moore may have earned his Eagle Scout badge, but since then, he's forgotten about a lot of what he was taught. Evidently the propaganda and indoctrination from the left had more of an affect on him than his scouting experience. So sad to think that one time he might have been a decent and honorable person and such a tragedy he has turned out to be such a creepy and dishonorable person.

He seems to have forgotten or dismissed all of the good lessons he learned growing up as a Scout.

;The Scout Sign

;The Scout Salute

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

;The Scout Handshake

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

:This is the traditional handshake done with the left hand instead of the right. Several conflicting reasons have been given for this modification:

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

:*The left hand is closer to one's heart.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

:*A soldier must keep his right hand free to grab his weapon.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

:*In warfare using simple weapons (practiced in the medieval period, as well as by southern African tribes which Baden-Powell met), a warrior carries a shield in his left hand. To shake with the left hand, he must drop his shield, indicating good faith. {{ref|Handshake}}

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The BSA Scout Oath and Law have remained unchanged since they were first developed in 1910.
