They need to put an end to this blanket ban on pedophiles as well! Bring back all those leaders who molested children who have completed their jail sentences (and absolutely restore all those who never served a moment in jail but were accused (and the Boy Scouts paid out settlements for) of such crimes..), and end this national nightmare of keeping boys from properly learning the Boy Scout experience! Least that’s the only thing the 2% minority will accept.
I can’t believe how much impact the 2% have on the organization. End ALL corporate Boy Scouts offices, end any full time Council positions. Close all offices, revoke any retirement benefits, etc. The only things that should be left should be scout huts run by local troops and camps which are paid for by confederations of troops. END the entire money train from corporate America into the Boy Scouts where they can continue to withhold funds to ‘pressure for change.’
Because the national council is selling the Boy Scouts piece by piece to the 2%, and that is a national crime.
I just found this page ( http://www.scouting.org/BSAFoundation/ContactInformation.aspx ) with all sorts of email addy’s and I sent to almost all of them the following letter:
Dear BSA,
Make no mistake they are not “gay” they are homosexual and the only reason they wish to be scout leaders is to prey on young boys.
It that what you want to be a part of? If my kid was abused by a scout leader I would sue EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO ALLOWED THE LEADER INTO THE SCOUTS INCLUDING PRESIDENT GATES. (and you personally)
My money quit going to BSA after you allowed homosexual kids to camp with straight kids and my guess is that BSA will cease to be an organization if you allow homosexual leaders.
Deal with Americans (who are 97% straight) as they are ... not what Gates wants US to be. REMEMBER what you are supposed to teach the young men?
Remember the scout oath:
On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and MORALLY STRAIGHT.
God doesn’t change, the BSA shouldn’t either.
The Bat Lady
I concur, it is the kind and intensity of crime that nations can and will be held accountable for.
The idea of "no accountability" is one of the original, root abuses of the Left, remember.
