Re: 92,000 BSA sex abuse claims
I asked about the practical procedure problem because I cannot see how a comp experience would leave a scout vulnerable. The leader is completely outnumbered and only has partial contruol of any of the event. I would expect that isolation from the group would be necessary for sexual predation. I wo...

And the best possible recompense for them is not that those who inflicted harm on them will suffer foreve...

Re: SeN: "Hope for immortality" is a Useful Salve for Childhood "rape and strangulation."
Those who think anyone should be punished forever may be forgetting just how long forever is.
