The problem stems from law suits because of sexual abuse of children. People who take sexual advantage of children disgust me. I was a Boy Scout and we had none of that in my troop. Our scout leader was a prominent attorney in town and was a member of my church where we had our weekly meetings.
Scout Oath On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. Now how many people these days could get behind such an Oath, seriously.
All my life I've taken every oath seriously including the Boy Scout oath, the Cub Scout oath, a witness oath (twice), an Army oath and there's probably more, oh yeah, the oath I took when I got my professional license.
They were adopting all the right things when I learned of their sexual abuse. I thank God I never saw any of that. I think bankruptcy was the only thing they could do. Why should scouts just joining pay for shit that happened before them? The best solution is to throw the culprits in prison and make them pay.
