haven't bought any in years... and never will again

When 9-year-old Stormi was bullied by a neighbor, she didn't let that slow her down from selling thousands of boxes of Girl Scout cookies
Her mom, Kim (the family didn't give their last name because of privacy concerns) told BuzzFeed News that a man just a few blocks from their home in Herrin, Illinois, told Stormi, who is transgender: "Nobody wants to buy cookies from a boy in a dress."
"It made me sad," Stormi told the outlet. "Because I'm a girl." Her mom said Stormi immediately went home and cried.
"She was like, 'Why am I not good enough?'" Kim told the site. "We just started talking, and she decided she wasn't going to let him win."
So, they started selling the cookies on the Girl Scouts "Digital Cookie" website, where she's been receiving cookie orders from as far as Canada and Australia, her mom told the site. Stormi has been getting dozens of letters of support and has sold more than 3,000 boxes of cookies so far. She plans to donate some boxes to foster children, as well.

My neighbor told me years ago when her daughter was selling cookies that the local troop only got less than 50 cents for every box they sold..they were over $2 then...
she said she tells people if they want to help the Girl Scouts to just give the $2 in money as the local group was able to use any cash donations ...
how did the man know the kid was a boy ???
Why does this bring to mind this famous quote? “. I don’t know if they were men or women fans running naked across the field. They had bags over their heads.”
The parents should be arrested for child abuse.
No need to buy “Trannie Scout” cookies anymore. You can get clones of those cookies from Family Dollar for a lot cheaper and you aren’t funding a pervert training program.
“Sometimes I wonder why God just doesn’t wipe the slate clean and start over again.”
He already did that once, but things went south pretty quick even after the “reset”. I think He’s gotta a more permanent solution in mind now.
My daughter is 30...(how did that happen?!? Years fly by!)
Back in the day I was her troop leader (Daisies-kindergarten all the way thru Seniors—high school). We did a lot of traveling (Toronto, NYC twice; DC twice; Broadway series shows in our Cultural District) and we raised our funds thru the cookie sales. New did booth sales, parents taking order sheets to work; very little door to door.
By the time the Girls were in HS, GS started changing to the left. But as I was and long term committee member, troop leader, etc I was left alone to run our Troop, our way. Hardcore “follow the program” rules came in for the “new” (Daisies and up) Troops. It’s a shame, because we selected out.r badge projects around the theme of our “big” trips. The girls learned history, budgeting, planning, etc. All of our girls earned their religious awards (Catholic and various other Christian faiths) and always participated in our area “Scout Sunday.” I can’t imagine HOW that goes on now with the political leanings of GS.
All that said, my heartbreaks for Stormi. He is in the foster system; got placed w/a nutcase foster mom (the caseworker should be fired!) after having been removed from his biological mom. The kid has so many strikes against him. This is just shameful, putting his agenda driven story “out there” with him appearing in photos.
This is a foster child? The caseworker should be prosecuted. That person allowed a mentally ill foster mother get a hold of that boy.
RIGHT! A BOY is a BOY and a GIRL is a GIRL!
PC madness will be the end of America! It’s why we lose wars (afraid to use our best weapons for the past 70 years), why we don’t deport illegals anymore, why we pretend women and men are the same, and why we don’t follow God’s Law by criminalizing things like faggotry, abortion and blasphemy. Trump will put an end to PC. He says what he means and encourages us to do the same.
Trump will make America great again by helping us to put things back the way they were when America was great.
Absolutely the case worker should be prosecuted and fired!
And the article makes NO mention of the biological dad or a foster dad (for a much needed male influence!). Everyone is letting that BOY down.
I “helped” out as an assistant Den Leader w/Cub Scouts w/our four boys and other than being a Troop committee person (treasurer, secretary) I didn’t participate i. Boy Scouts because boys need male role models...not middle aged women.
Precisely. And this would never be considered child abuse by the left. Actually, now that I think of it, cranking out child trannies is really kids play compared to aborting and butchering. The left knows no end to normalizing it’s twisted evil.
I never once met a girl scout who was selling cookies, it was always their parents at work who would set out an order sheet on a convenient counter top............
TannyScout Cookies?
DragScout Cookies?
Hey, there’s an asteroid or super-volcano or something out there with our name on it.
I gar-on-tee.
Don't worry. The Muslims will put a stop to this nonsense.
haven't bought any in years... and never will again
So what happens when “Stormi” starts to grow facial hair?
why boys need a good father figure.
And? The GS get 56 cents out a $3.50/box of cookies.
Do the math.
