ooo i am so going to make a youtube response on this one lol.

She had to take her comments down because she had over 300 comments telling her how bigoted she was and the thumbs down were overwhelming. Look on the bright side....10 years ago she probably would have had 300 comments supporting her.

I wonder if FTM's are allowed in boyscouts?

If girl scouts is really supporting trans girls I am buying a few boxed of peanut butter cookies :D

Yeah, I remember when all of these quotes were said a few months back. It was over a young 8 year old. It wasn't clear if the child was transgendered, and truly identified as a girl because the mother was still referring to "him" as male pronouns. However it was implied, and thus the statements were made for future references. I would love to stick her necklace clear down her judgmental, bigoted, and ignorant throat.. not to sound rude or anything

I see someone beat me to this.

I just loled at her stupidity.

its nice to know that her chances of succeeding are slim to none.

in fact I think her attempt to boycott is having the opposite effect.

I'm going to make it a point to buy cookies this year.

wheat thins are delicious

Probably not.  I think that the Boy Scouts are a lot more conservative than the Girl Scouts.

I'm on my iPod touch so I had to go to YouTube and type in the name of the video. If it's a the teenage girl then she's hot and it's a pity she's such a transphobic bigot. I'm just saying.
Push it baby, push it baby, out of control, I got my gun cocked tight and I'm ready to blow. ;)

So far, that indeed seems to be the case, yes, as I have literally lost count on the people that because of her ad have said; "I'm gonna buy some of those cookies now!".
Bummer. :laugh:

Absolutely not. The Boy Scouts have very bigoted policies. But the Girl Scouts are a completely different organization with a very unfortunately similar name and seem to be nothing like that.

We talked about it in this episode and then a follow-up on the same case (I think) in this episode. And if you don't care to listen to the episodes and our commentary, there are links to the articles we discussed from the show pages.

I have a gluten sensitivity so I can't eat their cookies, but I always make a cash donation when they show up at my door.

I will be buying extra Girl Scout cookies this year in support!   ;D

One of my friends on Facebook posted this saying what an idiot this girl was and all her friends jumped in to agree with her.  Made me feel good.   :)
In between the lines there's a lot of obscurity.
I'm not inclined to resign to maturity.
If it's alright, then you're all wrong.
Why bounce around to the same damn song?
