Cinderella Posted August 21, 2008 #1 Posted August 21, 2008 I ran across this organization today on the net......and then funny thing when we went to counceling today and she asked if we had a support system here....i said no family here and very few friends since we havent lived here long......BUT i said and proceeded to tell her about this group which she was impressed by you all( and come to find out she used to ride) and very glad we had some special people. well she happened to mention BACA then and i told her i had been reading about them.....she thought they may be a good group to get ahold of for some support. http://bacausa.com/
BOO Posted August 22, 2008 #2 Posted August 22, 2008 It's just amazing what is on the internet. Things you never think of looking for. Amazing, Hope you guys are doing okay. Take care of that little gal, she is a sweet heart. Jerry
mini-muffin Posted August 22, 2008 #3 Posted August 22, 2008 Interesting who knew. Glad you guys are in counseling. Hope it makes it easier to deal with, pains gonna be there for a while. Margaret
wizard Posted August 22, 2008 #4 Posted August 22, 2008 I ran into a bunch of these great people at a local Vets run. What a great group! These guys do not mess around. They mean business, and get the job done. I'll be signing with them at the next run in Lake Elizabeth.
Cinderella Posted August 22, 2008 Author #5 Posted August 22, 2008 good for you awesome! they put their people thru some pretty intensive stuff, training wise, back ground checks and i believe you have to go to meetings and ride with them for a yr before you are full fledged. I am impressed with what ive read so far.
Tartan Terror Posted August 22, 2008 #6 Posted August 22, 2008 I used to know the president of BACA around here and I did quite a few missions with the PGR with a member of BACA locally. I dont think they do counceling if I remember right but one of the big things they do is if the Abuser is a Parent or the child feels they are in Danger they will establish a presence with the child so they feel safe. Many are PO and in order to be a member must undergo a heavy duty backround check. If you want I can try to get a hold of Little John and maybe have him contact you and explain better. Let me know
Snarley Bill Posted August 22, 2008 #7 Posted August 22, 2008 cindy, wtho, is a member of baca. he lives in montgomery city, mo. i have been to one of their meetings in wright city, mo. he is in the members list. you may have met him before. bill
ibents Posted August 22, 2008 #8 Posted August 22, 2008 Hi Cindy, I went to the site and was pretty impressed by the video and what I read, its unfortunate that we don't have anything like this in Ontario...that I know of....I will contact the founder to see if anything is in the works for Canada, because we have our share of subhuman creeps. I see Australia has quite a few chapters so I don't know why not here! Glad to hear you guys are managing to get some help. God Bless. Ian
Lone Eagle Posted August 22, 2008 #9 Posted August 22, 2008 BACA has a fairly large presence here in California. In fact, at VentureWest IV, the last night, 3 members from Los Angeles stayed at the same motel we were in - coming back from a ride - or mission - to Nor Cal - somewhere up in the Sacramento area I believe. Here, in my opinion, they do have respect for their cause - some of the guys are pretty "rough" looking (not making a generalized statement), but those whom I have met are 200% behind their cause. I would be happy to try and get some information for you from couple of them who live around me - let me know.
Cinderella Posted August 22, 2008 Author #10 Posted August 22, 2008 yes guys i would love to have some more info on this group.......though my daughter is safe and the guy is behind bars all the support we can get is good. my biggest fear at this time is that they reduce his bond and he is released....it is my honest opinion that the guy is safer where he is now than to get out:whistling: there is no way i could physically stop dale....and having some sort of support ( or backup) might be good.
ibents Posted August 22, 2008 #11 Posted August 22, 2008 Received an email back today from Jack Dodson the President of BACA, after I inquired if anything was being set up in Canada, he said there is an effort to set a chapter up over here...though he didn't specify where...and he hopes that it will spread quickly once the first one gets going. This is something that I'd certainly like to get involved in, as no child should suffer abuse be it sexual, physical or mental. I don't think that many of us on this site are hard core biker's, more like....if you saw the movie.... the "Wild Hogs" are'nt we?? But I believe some good could be done if it was accepted over here as it seems to have been in the states. Thats my feeling anyway. Ian
Snarley Bill Posted August 22, 2008 #12 Posted August 22, 2008 from what i saw at the baca meeting i went to, they do everything legally and are not violent. they just make their presence felt and make life uncomfortable for the abuser. with the publicity they bring down on the individual. they make sure everyone knows about the abuser. bill
