It's entirely possible that the GOBN may try and cover up this Missouri case, and if they do, they should be prosecuted along with the offender. No arguments from me on that point.
I just try not to jump to that conclusion right off the bat.

Believe me...I understand where you are coming from as I also warned Nutter not to jump the gun and identified how many times he used the term GOBN in less than 5 minutes...and I think it was duly noted by Nutter. However, since then, there are hints of the GOBN doing their thing as seen by the link I posted above....but I am glad that I have seen some UCs come on this thread and denounce this sort of thing and not remain quiet simply because it is a fellow minister....

As I responded previously, I didn't assert that the GOBN would cover it up. I was hoping their would be no need for their use and making speculations. The guy confessed. I'm relatively new here. Others I know posted here and I had no time for this board. Please forgive me. I'll take a chill pill, sit back, and hope that justice prevails. I came back yesterday after a long hiatus. Not wanting to jump in and make any body upset. How do you get the smilies to work??

OK, guys. Are we straight on this? I apologized. Someone sent me a poem about the GOBN and I am so wanting to post it, but won't now.

I'd love to see it. The GOBN does exist, but it might not have anything to do with this case. You could post in a separate thread.

Nutter, I want to make sure we have this straight, I agree with you that the Good Old Boy network exists, I think anyone would be foolish to not acknowledge its existence, or naive, at least.
And, you explained yourself, I have no more issue with what you said.
Now, please feel free to post the poem!
And, you should have a field to the right of the text box when you reply where the smilies live........

 Double clicking on one of the smilies to the right of the REPLY box will add it to your reply at whatever place the cursor is within the REPLY box.
You can edit what smilies are available there from your Control Panel - " USER CP" at the top of the page. The "POST ICONS" below the REPLY box will appear as a part of your post at the top to tip off readers to your emotions - sad, angry, tongue in cheek, etc. You can also drag and drop these into your REPLY box.
Or do what I do: If I'm angry I just pound out my post real hard on my keyboard. When people can hear me furiously hammering on the keyboard they know that I'm angry and they can prepare to respond with the appropriate level of sarcasm that I deserve.
