Had they gone to police, The Boy Scouts would have been indicted for ‘hate crimes’ toward gays.

What is interesting is that this information going public proves that the Boy Scouts had good reason to be concerned, and that the representatives in our government should have been on their side.

However, it is likely they will be punished for even trying to protect underage males from predators.

To see the Boy Scouts ‘die’, is to see America ‘die’.

Sorry. Won't fly, especially given the "age" of this case.

Even if you could somehow make a case for such an indictment, which, BTW, I don't, the guy filing the lawsuit vs. the Boy Scouts & Lds Church in this case was abused in the early 1980s. And the guy accused apparently did the abusing between 1983-1994.

As much power as homosexuals have now, they didn't have that much in this time frame.

Although I was a boy scout when I was a kid, my four boys are so busy with sports that boy scouts never was even brought up. I wonder how much boy scouts is even part of Americana anymore. I wonder what the stats are today.

Correct. The gays were suing the BSA for not permitting homosexual scoutmasters. But anyone with even a modicum of sense could see the reason for keeping them as far as possible from boys.
