[Delphinium]

The following is a letter Rob Galliher wrote in January 2004 and sent to Mic Hunter, a St. Paul, Minn., psychologist and author of "Abused Boys," a book on sex abuse. Galliher said he was looking for help from Hunter when he wrote the letter, which accuses Jim West of sexual abuse. Excerpts from a Spokesman-Review interview with Robert Galliher are published here.

Homosexual Agenda ping.

I managed to read most of the article. Terrible, tragic, and disgusting. Child molesters need execution. This horror is multiplied many times by the coverup by the very people who are supposed to be protecting the public.

Let me know if you want on/off this pinglist.

[dennisw]

So damn disgusting. This account seems mostly credible to me. Good luck to the writer.

[little jeremiah]

Homosexuals are indeed much more likely to molest children and adolescents, and are more likely to have been molested.

Man - I have to proofread! That would be "You are RIGHT!"

Jeez, I'm an idiot.

[thompsonsjkc]

The inmates over at the GannonGuckert obsessed antiAMERICAblog are obsessed with the fact that he's a "republican". They refuse to acknowledge that he's one of them.

[little jeremiah]

They're psychotic, aren't they?

There's an old Bengali saying that goes something like this:

"A goat, what will he not eat? A madman, what will he not say?"

[connectthedots]

Does anyone think for a second this guy would have been 'outed' if he had not vetoed domestic partner benefits?

[DBeers]

Bravo

The pro-homosexual cable channel?

[Talking_Mouse]

Homosexuals are indeed much more likely to molest children and adolescents, and are more likely to have been molested.

Cite, please.

His name is Jim west and he is the Republican Mayor of Spokane Washington.

I think he held a Washington State Senate seat for a while. He was a cop for years and a boy scout leader for years.

There is a link at post #24

[vox_freedom]

Jeez, I'm an idiot.

Allow me to disagree.
YOU are correct on all of these issues!

[Delphinium]

You are right, this is so disgusting. I really hope these guys get some justice.

[Delphinium]

I just wonder how many covered for him all of these years.

[little jeremiah]

Here's a couple of links and quotes from one of them.

8. Psychological health problems including multiple drug use, partner violence, history of childhood sexual abuse, and depression interface to sharply increase high-risk sexual behavior and HIV infection rates among homosexual and bisexual men in the U.S. (L. Linley, R. Stall, G. Mansergh, "New CDC Studies Shed Light on Facts Underlying High HIV Infection Rates Among Gay and Bisexual Men." http://www.cdc.gov/od/oc/media/pressrel/r020710.htm )

Child Abuse
41. The Washington Times reported that 8 out of every 10 homosexuals court-martialed by the U.S. Army for sexual misconduct between 1898 and the fall of 1993 had engaged in sexual assaults against their victims. Of these 102 assault cases, nearly half involved the molestation of children. (Dennis A. Wheeler, "The Legacy of Sodom," World News Digest, October 19, 1993)

42. The 1995 Massachusetts Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance found that gay, lesbian, and bisexual orientation was associated with having had sexual intercourse before the age of 13, with having four or more partners in a lifetime, and with having experienced sexual contact against one’s will. (R. Garofalo et al., "The Association between Health Risk Behaviors and Sexual Orientation Among a School-based Sample of Adolescents," Pediatrics 101 [1998]: 895-902.)

43. A study of 425 homosexual males, ages 17 to 22, reported that 41.4% reported an occasion of forced sex. Seventy-nine of the boys reported beginning anal sex with men when they were ages 3 to 14. Of these, 15.2% were already HIV-positive. (Lemp, G., Hirozawa, A., Givertz, D., Nieri, G., Anderson, L., Linegren, M., Janssen, R., Katx, M. (1994) Seroprevalence of HIV and Risk Behaviors Among Young Homosexual and Bisexual Men. Journal of the American Medical Association. 272, 6: 449:454.)

44. "29% of the adult children of homosexual parents had been specifically subjected to sexual molestation by that homosexual parent, compared to only 0.6% of adult children of heterosexual parents. Having a homosexual parent(s) appears to increase the risk of incest with a parent by a factor of about 50." (P. Cameron and K.
Cameron, "Homosexual Parents," Adolescence 31 (1996): 772)

45. "Individuals from 1% to 3% of the population that are sexually attracted to the same sex are committing up to one-third of the sex crimes against children." (Timothy J. Dailey, Homosexuality and Child Sexual Abuse, http://www.frc.org/get/is02e3.cfm)

46. Researchers Karla Jay and Allen Young report data showing that 73% of homosexuals surveyed had at some time had sex with boys 16-19 years of age or younger. (Karla Jay and Allen Young, The Gay Report: Lesbians and Gay Men Speak Out about Sexual Experiences and Lifestyles (New York: Summit Books, 1979), p. 275)

47. While many homosexuals do not seek out young sexual partners, evidence indicates that disproportionate numbers of homosexual men seek adolescent males or boys as sexual partners. (Zebulon A. Silverthorne & Vernon L. Quinsey, "Sexual Partner Age Preferences of Homosexual and Heterosexual Men and Women," p. 73)

48. "Incest was more common among bisexuals and homosexuals of both sexes" than among heterosexuals. While less than 0.8% of heterosexual males reported have had sex with a brother, 12% of homosexuals reported having had sex with at least one brother. (Study of more than 9,100 adults in U.S. metropolitan areas) (Paul Cameron, and Kirk Cameron "Does Incest Cause Homosexuality?" Psychological Reports. Vol. 76, Number . , 1995. Page(s) 611-621)

49. A study of male child sex offenders found that 14% targeted only males, and 28% chose males as well as females as victims, thus indicating that 42% of male pedophiles engaged in homosexual molestation. (Michele Elliott, "Child Sexual Abuse Prevention: What Offenders Tell Us," Child Abuse and Neglect 19 (1995): 581)

50. A study in Archives of Sexual Behavior found that homosexual men are attracted to young males. The study compared the sexual age preferences of heterosexual men, heterosexual women, homosexual men, and lesbians. The results showed that, in marked contrast to the other three categories, "all but 9 of the 48 homosexual men preferred the youngest two male age categories," which included males as young as age 15. (Zebulon A. Silverthorne & Vernon L. Quinsey, "Sexual Partner Age Preferences of Homosexual and Heterosexual Men and Women," p. 73)

51. A study of 229 convicted child molesters found that "86% of offenders against males described themselves as homosexual or bisexual." ( W. D. Erickson, "Behavior Patterns of Child Molesters," Archives of Sexual Behavior 17 (1988): 83)

52. In a 1999 Journal of Homosexuality, author Helmut Graupner claims: "Man/boy and woman/girl relations without doubt are same-sex relations and they do constitute an aspect of gay and lesbian life." Graupner argues that, as such, consensual sexual relations between adult homosexuals and youths as young as fourteen qualifies as a "gay rights issue." (Helmut Graupner, "Love Versus Abuse: Crossgenerational Sexual Relations of Minors: A Gay Rights Issue?" Journal of Homosexuality 37 (1999): 23, 26)

53. The Archives of Sexual Behavior reports: "One of the most salient findings of this study is that 46% of homosexual men and 22% of homosexual women reported having been molested by a person of the same gender. This contrasts to only 7% of heterosexual men and 1% of heterosexual women reporting having been molested by a person of the same gender." (Marie, E. Tomeo, et al., "Comparative Data of Childhood and Adolescence Molestation in Heterosexual and Homosexual Persons," Archives of Sexual Behavior 30 (2001): 539)

54. A study of 279 homosexual/bisexual men with AIDS and control patients reported: "More than half of both case and control patients reported a sexual act with a male by age 16 years, approximately 20% by age 10 years." (Harry W. Haverkos, et al., "The Initiation of Male Homosexual Behavior," The Journal of the American Medical Association 262 (July 28, 1989): 501)

55. Noted child sex abuse expert David Finkelhor found that "boys victimized by older men were over four times more likely to be currently engaged in homosexual activity than were non-victims. The finding applied to nearly half the boys who had had such an experience . . . Further, the adolescents themselves often linked their homosexuality to their sexual victimization experiences." (Bill Watkins & Arnon Bentovim, "The Sexual Abuse of Male Children and Adolescents: A Review of Current Research," Journal of Child Psychiatry 33 (1992); in Byrgen Finkelman, Sexual Abuse (New York: Garland Publishing, 1995), p. 316)

56. A study in the International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology found: "In the case of childhood sexual experiences prior to the age of fourteen, 40% (of the pedophile sample) reported that they had engaged 'very often' in sexual activity with an adult, with 28% stating that this type of activity had occurred 'sometimes.'" (Gary A. Sawle, Jon Kear-Colwell, "Adult Attachment Style and Pedophilia: A Developmental Perspective," International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology 45 (February 2001): 6)

57. A National Institute of Justice report states that "the odds that a childhood sexual abuse victim will be arrested as an adult for any sex crime is 4.7 times higher than for people . . . who experienced no victimization as children." (Cathy Spatz Widom, "Victims of Childhood Sexual Abuse - Later Criminal Consequences," Victims of Childhood Sexual Abuse Series: NIJ Research in Brief, (March 1995): 6)

58. A Child Abuse and Neglect study found that 59% of male child sex offenders had been victims of contact sexual abuse as a child." (Michele Elliott, "Child Sexual Abuse Prevention: What Offenders Tell Us," Child Abuse and Neglect 19 (1995): 582)
Homosexual Parenting/Gay Adoption

Is this enough?

[connectthedots]

At least dozens; I would guess. How many have covered up for the corruption committed by Gregoire? Probably dozens, if not hundreds.

How many covered up for Gary Little? How many covered up the Olympia Kiwanas Boys Ranch? How many are covering up for the crimes committed by the current CJ of the state supreme court? Dozens in every case, if not more.

Washington is one of the most corrupt states in the country. It continues only because the FBI or US Attorney refuse to investigate the corruption in the courts of Washington.

[little jeremiah]

I said, it that enough, or would you like more?

Come on, ball's in your court.

Play the game or admit defeat.

[Delphinium]

Have you ever read Frank Peritti's books "This Present Darkness" and "Piercing the Darkness" ?

[Talking_Mouse]

Thank you for the plethera of information. Where are you getting the child abuse info -- its not from the CDC page you link to? I would like to have the ability to link to it in other conversations on other boards. I also want to order some of the studies to read more than the precis.

If it is correct, and I have no reason to doubt you, thank you for the cites because yes you are right, especially on point 45: A study of 425 homosexual males, ages 17 to 22, reported that 41.4% reported an occasion of forced sex. Seventy-nine of the boys reported beginning anal sex with men when they were ages 3 to 14. Anyone who has sex with a 14 year old (or younger) is having sex with children. That is saying that a little under 20% of the sample had their first sexual experience as children. That is horrible. I did not know this and I truly thank you for bringing this specific cite to my attention.

I didn't get back to you quickly because I am at work and have to read and respond between getting servers back online.

Maybe Michael Jackson will be free by then to vouch for him at his trial. In the mean time, Bubbles the chimpanzee is still in therapy, sadly.
