  .,,. What I do, did or will do is no of your business. 

 Well, it might be advisable for you not to say.... " well, maybe, don't be so sure GH, or others like him won't be back in DCI someday... then go on to state that you personally know " dozens " of people who have done ( your words) "  horrific things in the past, and welcomed back with open arms.... sometimes quietly " to DCI.  If you don't want a conversation as to what the heck you are referring too here PUBLICALLY, them don't bring such comments up on public DCP. if you do, it naturally invites a natural curiousity as what the heck you are referring too here, as it has you believing that DCI is not taking this seriously. You are certainly  saying above " don't be so sure that others like GH won't be welcomed back top DCI, presumably once this all blows over. Sorry, if some of us would like to know what in Hades are you thinking that " don't be so sure " these sexual predators won't be welcomed back to DCI again.

I think I’ll let @jimschehr tell this story.  It cost us $200 for speaking up. 

 If DCI ever allows these sexual predators back into DCI, then the whole organization,  and activity itself  should fall right into the abyss and disappear altogether. As it would have forfeited its right to exist in a civil and decent society. There is no " maybe " they'll find a way to get back. There is only DCI's eternal vigilance to see to it that " no, they won't ".  And if found, they are booted out immediately, and criminally charged and prosecuted by law enforcement. & DA office.Anything less than that from DCI moving forward, should not get a dime of financial support from anyone, imo.  The youth only get to be youth once. There is NO second chance for sexual predators to ever return to a youth activity ever again. Its a One strike and your out endeavor when its a School and/ or Youth activity and one has violated that sacred trust that comes with the position. No second chances. None. Period. Thats my story and I'm stickin' too it.

you are twisting what is  being said.... and by the way, a pessimistic attitude, based on facts is a good thing to move forward. EVERYONE needs to stay on their toes so this finally is eradicated from ALL activities.

You can trust anyone you want BUT holding one's feet to the fire will ensure this

Short and sweet. Brought to the attention of both DCI and DCA of a lifetime Nationally Registered Child Sex Offender marching in an all-age corps - scheduled to be in shows where minors would be performing. Not to mention being on both school rehearsal and show sites that have strict rules against convicted felons being on school property. Neither DCI or DCA did anything - nothing - took no action.  

However the individual was removed from a college campus even though the organizations Corps Director, a DCI Hall of Fame member lied to the President of the University and said that the individual wasn’t on his campus. Someone pointed the individual out and the campus police escorted the person off campus. Never been another show at that campus since  

Received calls and a so-called cease and desist letter drafted by some clown who was pretending to know the law. Called my attorney who drafted a response that his clients are ready to go to court on the basis of absolute truth as our defense, and it included a counter suit for all of the organizations assets. That shut them up.  Needless to say the organization has folded about three times since, or even recruit enough people for a card game, but the individual in question performed on the Navy/Marine Corps field that season over Labor Day with no repercussions. Being a Marine the thought still sickens me to this day. 

BTW the individual quit that organization a few years later, however performed in Indy at the DCI HOF Banquet with JOBE.

 Well, your comments above that " don't be so sure " these types won't be welcomed back to DCI again, certainly did not demonstrate much confidence that you believe that DCI is all that serious about creating safe environments for youth in the FUTURE. Was DCI HQ lax in the past ? it would certainly appear so.  The notion that we should ( your words above )" not be too sure" that DCI won't do all it can to keep the likes of these people out of DCI in the future however was a bit chilling as an assessment, you'd have to admit.  If this is not a wake up call to DCI, and they don't take this seriously, and do all they can to put in place systems that keep previous sexual predators out of DCI, then for the safety of any potential future victims, DCI in such a case would be better off ending and folding up altogether. But... I'm far more optimistic than you that moving forward DCI will not have your  assessment of a " don't be so sure " scenarios where previous sexual predators are somehow allowed to fall thru  the cracks and wind up in DCI Corps once again ( or allowed to remain ) as Jim/ Terri here alluded too with one example in the past just above.

So why did you that, then ? its a fair question, is it not... are were your words perhaps not conveying very well what you meant to say. The notion that we should ( your words above )" not be too sure" that DCI won't do all it can to keep the likes of these people out of DCI in the future was a bit chilling as an assessment, you'd have to admit.

let me repeat......

a pessimistic attitude, based on facts is a good thing to move forward. EVERYONE needs to stay on their toes so this finally is eradicated from ALL activities.

I dont care what anyone SAYS.....show me

I also don't believe everything I read , see on TV, the internet, or whats on jumbotrons

 

I think I've been pretty clear

 Yes, I will be " sure of that", if you don't mind.

 Don't " be so sure " that somehow this will blow over in time and that people that done " horrific things will be welcomed back with open arms "  in the future to DCI and that then it'll be business as usual with a return to the Good Ol Boys Network in DCI. Those days came to a screeching halt in Feb, 2018, imo.. 

 This was a wake up call to DCI HQ. Alarm bells did not go off in Indy HQ. A sledgehammer was taken to Indy's DCI Front Door, by the National Media. And when the Hopkins scandal hit their HQ in Indy, don't be" too sure " that DCI is about to " welcome people back who have " horrific things" back into DCI down the road at some point. You're kidding yourself  if you think that DCI HQ is not serious about this moving forward...or that they intend to be mere bystanders any longer at DCI HQ.  Put those bad dreams of yours away. 

it's all gonna come down to proof and serious accusations or rumor.
