Organizations which promote child molesting
The North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) is an organization which promotes homosexual pedophilia relations on young boys, and atively seeks the overturn of statutory rape laws. Specifically, they seek to change age of consent laws which require that a child be of a certain age (which varies by state) before they can agree to sexual intercourse. NAMBLA also engages in activities against law enforcement of pedophilia, and has stymied efforts of officers to effect arrests of wanted individuals world-wide; one famous case was Eric Franklin Rosser, a one-time keyboard player for John Cougar Mellencamp. Rosser was added to the FBI's most wanted list, as well as profiled on the television show America's Most Wanted, and was continually warned by NAMBLA members as to police efforts in locating him while on the run in Europe. He was finally captured in Bangkok, Thailand on August 21, 2001. [1]
NAMBLA was defended by the ACLU in a $200 million civil lawsuit [2], brought on by the parents of a 10 year old murder victim; the parents claimed the killers were motivated by material accessible on the NAMBLA website.
