Boy Scouts Now Have Copyright Activity Badge

The Motion Picture Association of America has partnered with the Los Angeles Area Boy Scouts to create a new patch for Boy Scouts – a “Respect Copyrights” activities patch. The movie industry helped develop the patch so that scouts can be educated on how movies are made and why films are valuable.

I will try my best to refrain from giving my opinion on just how freaking ridiculous this really is. I have to wonder what’s next though. Where’s the “Abstinence”, “Internet Explorer Avoiderer” and “Ubuntu User” badges??
