When tolerance spells rape

In a crazy top-down decision, the Big Brothers-Big Sisters of America organization told its local chapters they would no longer be able to exclude homosexuals from mentoring children.

It didn't take long for that sick, irresponsible ruling to result in its first casualties – innocent children raped by predators.

In Ohio, Scott A. Wagner, 34, has been indicted on 24 counts of rape and 57 sexual abuse charges involving six boys. Wagner was a volunteer with Big Brothers-Big Sisters and "mentored" one of the boys.

I shouldn't have to explain why the Big Brothers organization is morally culpable for these crimes. But, sadly, in this day and age, it is necessary to get down to basics.

Big Brothers still has the good sense not to assign adult men to "mentor" young girls. They do this because a certain percentage of adult heterosexual men will be tempted to sexually abuse those girls. It's just a simple fact. We all accept it. There is no denying it.

The denial, however, comes into play with homosexuals. Because of the "diversity" craze, because of "tolerance-mania," because of political correctness gone mad, many in our society deny the same principle holds true for homosexuals. Or, if they do, they prefer to overlook the facts as a way of making some kind of social statement at the expense of a few child sexual victims.

It's obscene.

It's even worse than that. Not only is it indisputably true that a small percentage of homosexuals are tempted to involve themselves sexually with boys under their care, statistics show that homosexuals commit a disproportionate number of child sex crimes.

Homosexuals represent somewhere between 1 percent and 3 percent of the population. Yet they commit up to one-third of all sex crimes against children. Knowing this, why would any responsible agency want to put more children in harm's way?

Of course, homosexual activists will also deny reality. They will cite bogus statistics concocted by pseudo-researchers like Alfred Kinsey – himself a sexual sociopath. They will even tell you that homosexuals are less likely to be molesters than heterosexuals. They will tell you that anyone like me who cites real facts is just a hater, a homophobe.

In other words, they will lie to protect their own vested interests in a sexually immoral lifestyle and a political program that stands on its head 5,000 years of Judeo-Christian sexual ethics. That's what we should expect from them and that's what they are delivering. What continues to amaze me is the way so many people buy their political propaganda and think they are doing compassionate work by exposing children to those most likely to abuse them.

Imagine the plight of these poor kids. They seek out some adult guidance, friendship and love from an organization like the Big Brothers. And what Big Brothers gives them are predators seeking sexual thrills with these kids.

You might think the leaders of this organization had been reading the news, observing the big judgments against the Catholic Church for allowing priests to abuse boys under their care. Evidently not. In the very face of this scandal, the Big Brothers changes its rules to make it inevitable that more boys will be victimized.

Thank God a few organizations – like the Boy Scouts of America – have defied tremendous pressures to cave in like the Big Brothers. They understand their first responsibility is to the safety of children. They understand that an organization working with children must first ensure they do no harm. They understand that reducing the risk of allowing sexual abuse to scar children is a moral imperative.

As a result of this common-sense approach to a very real problem, the Boy Scouts have been boycotted. They have been sued. They have been thrown out of public facilities. They have been maligned. They have been characterized as some kind of subversive organization. They have been bullied. They have had funds cut off.

It's time to stand up in support of common sense and the Boy Scouts and reject the dangerous, twisted policies of groups like the Big Brothers.

They want the "freedom" to coerce their ways within their "private" milieus. We did away with the slavery, it's coming back raging with liberals demanding to set up gay shops all over the planet, from where and with gay judges, they will be able to coerce their ways on kids and parents via false witness. Yep, people are apes who need sexual preferences in Soddom/Nazidom II

READ THAT AGAIN.

Homosexual apologists on FR keep denying this, but it continues to be true nevertheless.

BSA Youth Protection Guidelines--Other Organizations can learn from this and be able to fight press and the political left because in thier (the press') view the homosexuals come first.

The leaders in this country can say what they want, but God is a majority of one and they will be called to an account for allowing such abuse to occur in the name of political expediency.

can anyone cite a source for this statistic - it is powerful but meaningless without a source.

The judges who continue to allow these diviates to operate are the ones that should be raped, along with the management of org.'s like this one who condone such crimes against children. If it was one of my children, you can bet they would get a bullet between the eye from me.

Big Brother/Big Sister. Boys Scouts of America. Catholic Church.

If you allow homosexuals to have positions of power over young, vulnerable people there will be sex crimes. Why are some people shocked when this happens? Perhaps even worse, how can people continue to deny that it happens?

And when a good group like the Boy Scouts moves to end this travesty, the homosexuals get all upset. Why? Is it because they know that some of their fun is being taken away?

Big Brothers-Big Sisters of America and any homesexual activists that pressured them to institute such a sick policy should be sued. In a better world they would receive far worse.

I have my own statistic. I used to hang out regularly with a group of 5 police officers. One was openly gay. Only one of the 5 police officers has been charged with criminal sexual assault. Care to guess which one?

You have to take all the offenders, wave a wand over them and magically transform them into “homosexuals,” regardless of their actual sexual orientation or identity.

No magic wand needed. If the perpetrator has chromosomes of the XY variety, and if the victim has chromosomes of the XY variety, then we have a homosexual molesting a child.

What's hard about that?

PS Yeah, if it's a woman molesting a girl, then substitute XX for XY in the example above.
