    When I was a about 16, there was a guy in the neighbohood who liked the little boys. They found him in his car with a hose from the tailpipe to the closed window. A little known fact was that he also had a serious bruise on the back of his skull.

    Knew how to deal with this stuff then.


    LOS ANGELES (AP) — Confidential records show Boy Scout officials in the U.S. and Canada not only failed to stop an admitted child molester in its ranks, but sometimes helped cover his tracks.

    A Los Angeles Times and Canadian Broadcasting Corp. investigation (http://lat.ms/tYtWBX ) finds scout leader Rick Turley molested at least 15 children, most of whom he met through American and Canadian Scouting beginning in the 1970s.

    Records show Boy Scouts of America officials didn't call police after he admitted molesting three boys. Turley then returned to his home country of Canada, where he signed on with Scouts Canada, and continued his abuses for at least a decade.

    Now 58, Turley says he is surprised at how often he got away with it.

    Turley is one of more than 5,000 suspected child molesters named in confidential files kept by the Boy Scouts of America.

    I'm an Eagle Scout myself but since the time I was 15 (I'm 30 now) the program seems to have been diluted from the point of takes boys and showing them to become men through outdoors and community service to just being a polictically correct system where mediocrity is celebrated,everyone is a winner bullshit, and rules getting so strict for the sue happy lawyers, it has become worthless. My children if I ever have any will be taught all of their outdoor skills from my brother and myself. It is sad.

    I was in the boy scouts cub scouts whatever the fuck it was for about 10 mins, I was 8 or 9 at the time and saw how stupid it was. That was in the early 90s.

    I cant believe they know of 5000 people who have molested children and are hiding them. Their has to be a little more to this story or to the institution than what has been disclosed.

    What!?! Try ordinary human cowardice. It was the Scouts who covered up the actions of this filth, what did the ACLU have to do with it?!?
     
    Re: Why is this man still breathing?

    I helped out the Scouts a bit, when I was up in Northern BC. I can' honestly say that I have NO knowledge of any of this crap at all.

    If I'd had, there's all kinds of ravines and valleys there for one to go 'mountaineering'.
     
    Re: Why is this man still breathing?

    I was in the Boy Scouts and I'll say there is a big difference between locals and the national organization.

    At my level, as a kid, it was basically a group of friends with parental supervision learning outdoors and handyman skills.

    Don't throw the whole organization out due to the political actions of a few individuals at the top.

    20/20 or anouther news agency like them, did an interveiw with some parents of the molested boys, maybe, mid 80,s...

    dudes, when you find out what happened,, for how long, and everybody that knew, and didnt do anything about it, you,ll fucking puke and not ever let any adult but you and your family have custody of your child...
     
    Re: Why is this man still breathing?

    Re: Why is this man still breathing?

    I was involved in putting one of these guys in jail a few years ago. I wish i could have been involved in putting him under ground. However it is complicated....I will guarantee that there are people like that on this forum. With an audience as large as this one has it is imposable that there is not some one in here that likes that kind of stuff. So i will state for the record to those butt sucking ass holes Who like that king of sick twisted bull shit. I hope in the end you at minimum get a machete shoved up your ass and die slow.. carry on.

    My thoughts exactly!
    5000 RSO's by 15 (+or-) kids is 75K victims/molestations!
    Hard to F a kids life up more than by molesting him/her.

    ...on the other hand, I now realize how sadly understocked I am on all my reloading components.

    Re: Why is this man still breathing?

    It is sad that these guys get to do what they want. I can not imagine how I would handel something like that with my kid. I am sure most do not want to put their kid on the stand.

    If the gov states they will shoot them in the head I will buy the ammo.
     
    Re: Why is this man still breathing?

    Depends totally on the leaders. I am both an Eagle and Vigil Honor Boy Scout. I am sure a lot has chaged since I was active since I am 43 now. Our leaders were into backpacking, rock climbing, shooting, and survival training. That is what we did and it was a blast. Learned a hell of a lot about woods survival, dead reckoning and navigation as a Boy Scout. Even then as I took part in more state and national events you could see the organizational bullshit present as you went up from local, to state to national. We were also rough country boys that had big bullshit meters and a potental molester wouldn't have faired well. I can see how it could be the perfect location for a child molester to prey on victims. Not unlike organizational Girl Scouts is full of liberal lesbians.
