Ask the Boy Scouts Not to Allow Jerry Sandusky to be a Scout Leader
Details
Jerry Sandusky isn’t actually preparing to be a Scout leader, but here are some statistics you need to look at to see how dangerous it will be for the Boy Scouts to lift the ban on homosexual leaders and members:
- Department of Justice reports that 67 percent of all reported sex abuse victims are children and 64 percent of forcible sodomy victims are boys under 12.
- In a study published in 1987 in the Journal of Interpersonal Violence, Dr. Gene Able said homosexuals sexually molest young boys with an incidence five times greater than the molestation of girls. It found that 150 boys are abused by one male homosexual offender, compared to 19.8 girls by heterosexual offenders.
- In 1996, the journal Adolescence reported several studies indicate that up to one-third of all sex crimes against children are committed against boys.
- Population study by the U.S. Department of Commerce: 8 million girls were abused by age 18 by heterosexual men, a ratio of 1 victim to 11 adult men. However, 6-8 million boys were abused by age 18 by 1-2 million adult homosexuals, a ratio of 3-5 victims for every gay adult.
