JUDGE RULES BOY SCOUTS CAN BE LIABLE IN MOLESTATION CASE
Jan 14, 2006
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) -- A judge has ruled that the Boy Scouts of
America and the Grand Teton Council can be held liable for the actions
of a camp program director who was convicted of molesting two brothers.
The decision came Friday from Sixth District Court Judge Ronald Bush.
It opens the doors for the plaintiffs, 23-year-old Adam Steed and
26-year-old Ben Steed, to seek civil damages for their molestation by
Brad Stowell in 1997.
The brothers, who are from Pocatello, say Scout officials violated their
own guidelines by ignoring many warnings about Stowell.

As L. Michael Roberts pointed out, you just proved that the
Boy Scouts are wrong.
You proved that the Boy Scouts are wrong.
The Boy Scout's policy doesn't work. Period. It doesn't protect
anyone, and it does discriminate against gay people and does
hurt gay teens.
Here:
| The Boy Scouts of America performs background checks on all
| of its employees and volunteers, and you have to have a clean
| slate to work for the organization. However, it's charges against
| people once they're on board is where the organization can run
| into some problems.
This guy in the story passed the Boy Scout's test. The Boy
Scouts looked at this man and decided that he was okay, that
he was the type of man that they want around the boys.
Clearly the Boy Scouts were wrong. Clearly the Boy Scout's
policy can not & does not stop men like him from "leading"
the boys. All the Boy Scout policy does, all it can do is hurt
honest & open people... honest & open Scouts.
That is the ONLY thing the Boy Scouts have ever accomplished.
They have never kept men like this out of the Scouts, and they
never will keep men like this out of the Scouts. Their policy is
simply flawed.

In all fairness to the BSA, they never claimed that their anti-gay policy
was intended to keep sexual abusers out (in fact, their arguments in _Dale_
stated that they were aware that gay men are at no higher risk of abusing
boys than are straight men). Their argument was that their opposition to
homosexuality was a matter of belief and that prohibiting them from kicking
out gay members amounted to forced political speech.

if it means they can hurt gay kids.

I know you're a drooling troll, but you have it backwards. It got him
in. Going by the Boyscout's policy, using their standards, they
identified this guy as the kind of man they wanted camping with the
boys.
It's THE LAW that gets these people OUT, after they are caught...
but only AFTER they are caught.
The Boyscouts are endangering kids.

Yeah, I here where the RCC in Boston will have to pay out another huge
settlement for protecting pedophiles in its ranks. You'd think he'd be
working on cleaning up his own house, before trying to clean everyone
else's.

Thus once again proving J Young's biases. If the teacher was married,
wouldn't you expect him to be straight? What you probably have is
some creep who likes, or at least tolerates, adult women, and who
likes little boys, but who has no interest at all in adult men.
Whatever he is, a person fitting that description is not gay.
What the boy scouts are actually doing by banning openly gay
men is to exclude the people least likely to abuse children,
thereby leading to pedophiles being overly represented in
the origanization. The Boy Scout's policy is actually
increasing the risk to children.

If a male is sexually attracted to another male, then that sounds

It doesn't sound very "gay" if the guy has zero interest in adult men.

Well, they could solve that problem by banning the straight guys. :-)
Openly gay men are probably the least likely to go after young boys.

It always does to an idiot. However, pedophilia is not a sexual
orientation, and it can, and most often does, operate outside of a person's
sexual orientation. In other words, many sexual predators who target boys
are in a stable adult relationship with a woman, they have children, etc...

My troop was affiliated with the United States Navy, Yokuska, Japan, Far

My earlier views of the unsoundness of the Christian scheme of salvation
and the human origin of the scriptures, have become clearer and stronger
with advancing years and I see no reason for thinking I shall ever change
them.

Thanks. In our town, there was a Catholic troop, a Mormon troop, and a
generic troop. I belonged to the latter, where one's religion didn't
matter.

The one you swore an oath to. You know, the Judaic/Christian God, have you
forgotten? You do know that both Judaism and Christianity are organized
