So I think Skidmark could have been forced into being an Eagle Scout.
I wasn't a Boy Scout.
I'm an Eagle Scout, and much of this quote doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me; how can community service "order" someone to become an Eagle Scout? Even if done as fast as possible the process takes at least a couple of years, and you can't just become one because the court ordered you to...you'd still have to earn it. Not to mention that the BSA is a private organization and the court couldn't force them to accept a kid and make sure he became one. Not saying he couldn't have become one, at all, but he would've had to earn it and it would have to be a lot more voluntary and a lot more work than that paragraph made it sound.
Further I'm not sure how Skidmark qualifies, exactly? Because he was a good kid prior to getting his driver's license...?
