I am looking for serious suggestions to contribute to such a script, goal being to create something that is short and effective and won't get me sued for some reason by the GS, PP.

Any ideas?

Just say no thanks. The little girls are too young to even know what planned parenthood does.

Here’s a suggestion... buy cookies or move on quietly.
Life is too short to be a dick to 10 year old girls.

Who are you trying to enlighten? The parent? You won't.

The kid? You won't. You'll just piss off the parent.

There is no up-side to this approach.

I just tell them that I already have five boxes from my niece (not true) and thank them for the offer. I won’t give the Girl Scouts my cash but I’m not going to lecture the girls. I think some stranger giving them a speech on sin isn’t going to convince them of anything, personally.

Whatever script you come up with should be addressed to the Girl Scouts headquarters. Leave the girls, and their parents, be. Just my two cents.

I support the girls not their politics. Life is too short.

JUST DONT.

Many of their families are conservative, but the little girl’s friends are in GS so she joined. And if these families (the adults) do support things you do not, remember that they are Americans and have the right to believe what they believe.

You not buying is fine. Don’t tell them why. Everyone should have the right to peaceably assemble and legally sell too. Golden rule. And these are children; don’t politicize what to them is just selling yummy treats.

Write an article for your blog or newspaper. Children really don’t sell them anymore. The parents do it all. If you are approached directly by a parent, say something I guess. Otherwise don’t bother the children at the grocery store.

Little girls join for reasons other than to support PP.

And it is not their fault nor do they have any say.

The problem is with the schools, from the kindergarten to the universities.

The states need to get the feds out of their schools.

The department of education (really the department of indoctrination) must be closed down.

And never forget that the No Child Left Behind was/is a Bush brainstorm.

When dealing with children, especially those not your own, it is often wise to allow yourself the luxury of an occasional unexpressed thought.

Nope. Do not aim at the girls.

If you want to take aim, deal with the leadership and protest their ideological bent.

Work to end relationships with partners and benefactors, but leave the children out of it.

While the left and socialists, actually the communists in our democrat party use children as props without caring about the long term damage to them, we do not.

OK?

Dress up like a girl scout and ask to join because you identify as a 10 year old girl. /S!

Sorry (not sorry) These are kids. Smile and tell them you are diabetic but God loves them. Wish them blessings.

Counter productive. Merely say no thankyou and move on. Disapproval will be manifest by lack of sales. I’m just sayin’.

I smile and say no thank you.

It seems, however, current cultural norms dictate upturning their tables and cursing them out.
