The Girl Scouts became political a long time ago. Live Action<\/a> posted an article in March of last year that lists some of the political events held by the Girl Scouts in recent years.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

In June of 2018, the Girl Scouts tweeted a thank you to Teen Vogue<\/em> regarding a Teen Vogue<\/em> Summit in which they participated. This summit has featured \u201creproductive justice\u201d as one of its topics. \u201cWe had a blast,\u201d they said. \u201cTalk about feeling empowred.\u201d Along with the tweet was a video which included the pro-abortion mantra, \u201cmy body, my choice, my rights.\u201d It\u2019s a clear message from the Girl Scouts. They falsely believe that abortion is a right, rather than a gross attack on human life and human rights.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…In November of 2018, the Girl Scouts again tweeted support for Teen Vogue<\/em>, thanking them for \u201cextending the sponsorship opportunity\u201d for a Teen Vogue<\/em> Summit. Teen Vogue<\/em> Summit events include topics such as \u201can honest and intimate conversation on healthy, safe, and pleasurable sex, in a new age of inclusivity.\u201d The events have featured former Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards, and manager of Youth Organizing for Planned Parenthood Sharim Hossain as speakers. In addition, Teen Vogue<\/em> has recently been outspoken<\/a>\u00a0about their support for late-term abortion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…On December 26, 2018, the Girl Scouts got straight to the point on Instagram. In a #WednesdayWisdom post, they celebrated Girl Scout alum Sandra Day O\u2019Connor, the first woman to sit on the Supreme Court, highlighting O\u2019Connor\u2019s \u201cduty to \u2018help people at all times.’\u201d They celebrated O\u2019Connor because, as they say, \u201cshe was a key swing vote in many important cases, including the upholding of Roe v. Wade.\u201d It doesn\u2019t get more clear than that. The Girl Scouts support Roe v. Wade,<\/em> which legalized abortion in the United States through all nine months of pregnancy, overruling multiple state laws enacted by the elected representatives in those states.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fast forward to an article in The Daily Wire<\/a> yesterday.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The Girl Scouts of America has deleted a Wednesday social media post that congratulated Justice Amy Coney Barrett for becoming one of only five women in U.S. history to be appointed to the Supreme Court.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a statement on social media, the Girl Scouts explained that the post was deleted because it was viewed as a political statement, instead of as simply congratulatory.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…\u201cEarlier today, we shared a post highlighting the five women who have been appointed to the Supreme Court. It was quickly viewed as a political and partisan statement which was not our intent and we have removed the post,\u201d explained the organization.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cGirl Scouts of the USA is a non-political, nonpartisan organization. We are neither red nor blue, but Girl Scout GREEN. We are here to lift up girls and women,\u201d said Girl Scouts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The original Girl Scouts post featured a photo of Barrett, along with a photo of the since-retired Sandra Day O\u2019Connor and the three sitting female justices on the Supreme Court, and read simply: \u201cCongratulations Amy Coney Barrett on becoming the fifth woman appointed to the Supreme Court since its inception in 1789.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The post was taken down due to pushback from people who opposed the appointment. The article includes a number of Twitter posts from those people. It is sad to see people so blinded by politics that they cannot celebrate the accomplishments of someone who holds different political views.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
