Sorry I misread your comment about the Southern, and am MOST pleased to learn this misdeed did not pertain to the LCSCA leadership!  Also, I don't think your post should be removed as this unfortunate event was obviously something that has deeply troubled you; and the fact that your post serves as a great "teaching moment" regarding issues of personal integrity.  It also brings to mind some advice I heard as a youth from a girlfriend's mom.  The mother of one of my old teenage girlfriends always gave her daughter this advice regarding her personal reputation while at home and growing into adulthood; "never lose sight of the fact that, whenever you pass from this earth there's only one thing the people who knew you will truly remember about you; your reputation.  So whatever you do, or may be asked to do; don't ever forget that fact".  Her mom was correct, a reputation is something we all "earn" over our lifetimes; and as it comes to my own double gun associations, I certainly want to be remembered as an individual who was honest in all his dealings, as well as generous with my time and information.
