I guess the ACLU couldn’t save his goatsmelling ass. Probably too busy fighting for terrorist rights.

I couldn't agree with you more, it is a good riddance!

However, I have one question. BSA has Sea Scouts in my state. It is a VENTURING group / high adverture activity. I thought BSA required all high adventure paticipants to be at least 14 years old? So why would boys under 14 be involved with the group.

Of course, if he'd molest them, he probably wouldn't be worried about those pesky minimum age requirments - but what about the other adults in the group?

Defense: "Other than forcing himself on children he meant well." Why is it that we see a generic form of that argument far too often in our society? "Well, we created this program to make cash payments to unwed mothers and goshdarnit if we didn't end up with more of them. We just cared too much." "I love the wabbit too much, George. Why the wabbit don't move no more?" "We are going to change what we hope to change and that is hope. And if we fail, well, at least we spent your hard-earned money failing to change hope."

Tie the ship’s anchor around his neck and drop him out at sea.

A little violation here, a little violation there, doing it in Berkley where no one really cares, where no one can be expected to obey the rules... just do your thing man. < / Sarc >

If he was a trooper in Alaska, dems would give him a raise and investigate the Governor who wanted him fired.

[SandRat]

Yes by BSA Rules Sea Scouts have to be 14 and up. Additionally, Sea Scouts is to be CoEd.

scumbag should have got at least 10 years for every kid he molested, but I won’t say what should really happen to him

There was a big story a few years back about the Berkeley Sea Scouts being kicked out of the Berkeley Marina by the Berkeley City Council because they refused to have homosexual scout masters.

I do not, REPEAT DO NOT, know if that story has anything to do with this story. I just find it remarkable that a few years later, there can be a story about sexual improriety in the Berkeley Sea Scouts that does not mention this major kerfluffle, which happened only a few years ago.

[gridlock]

From another story:

In 2006, Evans defended the Berkeley Sea Scouts’ right to a free berth at the Marina arguing the city was punishing the group for something that wasn’t its fault. The Sea Scouts are bound to the policies of their parent body, the Boy Scouts of America, which mandates that gays and atheists be excluded from the organization.

So, Evans was defending the Sea Scouts policy of excluding gays and athiests from the program, not advocating their inclusion.

SO BACK AWAY FROM THE HAIR TRIGGER, PEOPLE!!!

Gee, if this were to become vogue, you might even find a sitting President recruiting interns to use as receptacles,
OH NO, that would never happen.

[PROCON]

Thanks for the forward.

I'm sure we'll see major coverage of this on the alphabet channels/s!
