Girl Scout anti-transgender movement boycotts GS Cookies!

Jack Kemp

You Go, Girl (Scout Protester)!

A Girl Scout has created a website protesting the national organization's attempt to place so called transgendered biological males into Girl Scout troops. She is calling for...a boycott of Girl Scout Cookies! Yes, she says not to buy them. Her organization is "Honest Girl Scouts" at http://www.honestgirlscouts.com/index.html If any of my readers have small daughters or granddaughters or neices or whomever, go read the site. It talks about the Girl Scouts funding a pro-LBGT agenda and "sexual freedom" between children and adults. It reads like the 1960s hippie movement revised for nine year old - and up - girls.

A California teen calling for a Girl Scout cookie boycott after the organization accepted a transgender child to a Colorado troop in October.

In an online video posted to YouTube Jan. 3 — and which has since been made private — the teen, wearing a Girl Scout sash, says she’s been a member of the organization for eight years and urges people not to buy the iconic cookies until Girl Scouts agrees to bar transgender members. Though she doesn’t identify herself, the Christian Post reported her name is Taylor and that she’s from Ventura County, Calif.

“I have been taught by Girl Scouts to advocate for my beliefs, and to discover, connect and take action when I see something I want to change in the world,” Taylor says in the eight-minute video. “The problem is, what I want to help change is Girl Scouts.”

“Right now, Girl Scouts of the USA, or GSUSA, is not being honest with us girls, its troops, its leaders, its parents or the American public,” she continues. “Girl Scouts describes itself as an all-girl experience. With that label, families trust that the girls will be in an environment that is not only nurturing and sensitive to girls’ needs, but also safe for girls.”

Taylor, I salute you.
