Seriously though, last year the wife and her friends wentvto a Pho restaurant after church and they had ESPN on. They were there over an hour and EDPN was coveringbhow brave some 12yo soccer player had come out as gay. With the help of his coach.
Yet, it’s only the Boy Scout or the Catholic Church that get blamed.
People who molest children gravitate to roles where they can control children. They’re in schools, YMCAs, religious organizations and secular clubs.
And ESPN celebrates them on Sundays.
Just what Korean Baseball needs.

@setnaffa the reason the Catholic Church & Boy Scouts get blamed is the lawyers see deep pockets. You don’t hear much about other denominations because they are all separate entities so you can only sue one church or one pastor not the whole diocese. With the Boy Scouts it’s the same thing large organization clear lines of hierarchy, and a large central agency to cover the excessive losses of the local councils. Other organizations are not sued for the same reason, the local little league barely has the money to cover expenses so there’s no money there, I’m not sure public school boards can be sued as they are considered a part of the state government, but that might be dependent on the various states.
@2ID Doc, interesting take 💡 and that does make sense. I guess the lesson learned for these various organizations is to have a decentralized structure.
I am beginning to think the coronavirus may have been spreading in the US as early as the Fall timeframe the way more of these stories are getting reported:
2. Who is running a base that has a hole in the fence?

CH, in answer to your question #1, there may have been 3 or more (1 PFC and 2 PV2 were given punishment)…
And in answer to your question #2, Camp Walker, in Daegu…

Maybe they should hold the next diversity training class while walking around the fence looking for holes or something.
It seems like a fence that isn’t maintained as a fence isn’t really a fence.
Back in the day, Osan had its “secret” hole in the fence which allowed all sorts of shenanigans to go on. The best explanation I could get is that it was intentional. They allowed all that to happen because they were monitoring it for the real bad guys. Maybe.
I heard lots of stories of juicy girls slipping on and off base for a little room service. Never heard of any black marketers being shut down. No spies seem to have been caught.

Interesting quote: “We argue that China is not just a rival but a formidable enemy. Its goal is not just to weaken America but supplant it and the liberal international order it created with a Communist ideology-based model of global governance. The PRC is more dangerous than the Soviet Union because it is unpredictable and more formidable. It is an amalgamation of a rapidly rising power and an ideological regime with an aggressive leader in Chairman Xi Jinping. Xi is both extremely ambitious and paranoid about his regime’s security as well as his own. These factors make this enemy far less certain than the Soviets.”
Great, I’d watch some of that Korean baseball.

This is probably the funniest of the Article 15s so far.
Buyer beware. 1 million Chinese made N95 masks unusable.

Article 15:
1. Was a juicy girl involved?
2. Who is running a base that has a hole in the fence?
