What Is It About Anti-Gay Bigots?

First the Catholic Church, now The Boy Scouts of America:

Where have we heard this before? An organization known for hierarchy, homophobia, and a self-presumption of moral and religious superiority is revealed to have a long history of protecting sexual predators and covering up their crimes.

Last month, the Boy Scouts of America were found liable in a case of sexual abuse that is being compared to the scandal that is rocking the Catholic Church.


The Scouts have files on child molesters in the organization going back to 1925. Thousands of files. And they did nothing about it.
