Homosexuals serving as boy scout leaders ... what could possibly go wrong?

But just think..if he were a schoolteacher, his union would be fighting to get him a severance package...

These sick POS aren't Scout leaders they are homosexuals who get involved with these groups so they have access to little boys.

Just like the Catholic "priests". They were never priests seeking a vocation, they were homosexuals that infiltrated the priesthood looking for victims.

Gee, why does George Takei keep pushing for gay scoutmasters?

Fresh meat?

If I was gay, I'd come out strongly condemning such low-lifes.

"This is NOT what we are, gays are not molesters. We are disgusted by such behavior."

But, no.

The silence of "gay spokesmen" is deafening.

One of the most egregious, depraved betrayals that can be inflicted upon children.

Thing is he was a nice guy and a good scout master. I found out about this a while ago, while it was still under investigation, and honesty we were shocked. This is one of the reasons my Son quit scouts. First it was this guy (and he is not the only one) then BSA dropped the ban on gay scouts. My Son, who loved Scouts and was well on his way to Eagle, decided enough is enough and asked if he could be done with scouts.

If scoutmasters were allowed to marry, this would never happen.

The Boy Scouts must be teaching some doctrine that causes men to prey on boys.

can you imagine what a badge for that would look like ?

Prison? For molesting young boys? We have a serious problem in this country.

Prison does not come close to justice.

This piece of trash should be tortured then murdered.

“Ex- scoutmaster” As in The Boy Scouts of America? Let’s spell it out for the homophiles and for those of us who believe that homosexuality is perverse.

Watkins was my son’s scoutmaster. Nice guy? I always found him to be ... off. Didn’t trust him, didn’t let my kid spend much unsupervised time with the guy, and made unannounced visits to camping trips more than once. That turned out to not be the problem area. He would invite kids to spend time or sleepover his house for “movie nights”. In those cases, there was never a second adult present. No thanks.

I remember one time my son came hime and innocently told us that “scoutmaster Dave” had been asking him if things were ok at home, if he was getting along with his parents. There was no reason to ask this. Our son was (and is) a very happy, well adjusted kid from a good loving home. He was probing. I fear Watkins may have been successful with this technique when he used it on boys from single parent households.

The other adults who were troop leaders were fine men, very conscientious, the kind of leaders you would want, and several of them tried to get rid of him, but some of the mothers and apparently the regional council didn’t see it.

Dodged a bullet, for sure...
