    Indiana lawmaker says Girl Scouts promote abortion
    By TOM LoBIANCO | Associated Press
    Bob Morris claims that the Girl Scouts organization is too radical and pulled his kids out.He and other conservative lawmakers are making these claims because the GS accepted a transgender child and promotes abortion by supporting the Planned Parenthood. kids.
    Morris' comments about the Girl Scouts came in a letter he sent to House Republicans on Saturday that said he had conducted some research on the Internet and discovered that the scouts are a "tactical arm" of Planned Parenthood.

    The Girl Scouts flatly denied Morris' accusations, and Planned Parenthood of Indiana issued a separate statement calling Morris' charges "woefully inaccurate."

    I heard the cookies they sell contain substantial doses of the morning after pill

      I guess that explains why I am hormonal after eating them.

    The Girl Scouts are great.  It seems whack-a-loons are really having a go at them this year.

    Girls Scouts organization has released a memo to all stating their positions. They claim they are not a left organization, there are no transgenders in the girl scouts anywhere, and that they do not have sex badges that the girls must earn.

    Now, conspicuous by its absence was no mention or denial on Planned Parenthood. Because they cannot deny it, they are involved. Now they are not involved like they promote abortions or give PP money, those kinds of statements are not accurate. But GSA does have PP come to troop rallies or meeting to discuss sex. They do pass out brochures to those that attend, and parents are not allowed in the meeting. But PP does not give brochures for GSA to give out. I know, my daughter was a GS years ago, I saw it first hand.

    Seems there is some truth to what we hear, but it gets way blown out of proportion. I would like to know if a transgender child was accepted into the GSA in Colorado, not to make an issue of the child, but to see if GSA is lying about the statement there are none. A false statement will only lower their credibility with the public

      I read the original article about the 7 year old transgender and I assumed that when they assigned the child as a male that the child may be a Hermaphrodite; being born with both male and female genitals.Some refer to this as intersex.
      This has got to be tough on the 7 year old with all these adults squabbling over their gender

        Stacie,

        I kind of made the same assumption. It seems illogical that a child would want a sex change operation. That was why I wanted to know more about the Colorado story

          I grew up with the secrecy of transsexualism. From the age of six I knew that I wanted to be a girl.

          It took me until the age of 29 to be able to tell my family that I am transsexual and another four years after that to be accepted in to the treatment programme.

          I have now been on hormones for two years, and have just been accepted for the last stage before my corrective surgery.

          Thankfully these days childhood transsexualism is recognised, and parents are more open minded, reducing the number of suicides by children who grow up trying or being forced to live a life that is not theirs.

          Children do when their bodies do not fit what they know about the way they feel.

      The only credibilty lowered is on the ridiculous bigots who call themselves religious people.

      Since when is God a god of hate and intolerance?

      Since when do mere humans decide who is worthy or not?


      They are twisting religion beyond recognition.

        They are just using religion to perpetuate their hate
