One of the saddest days of my life occurred about 4 years ago. A nice little neighborhood boy with thick glasses, probably 7 years old, came to my door in uniform selling a product to collect money for his Cub Scouts troop, much as I did many moons ago. When I politely declined to buy his product or contribute, he had a look of extreme dejection as if he were about to cry, as he looked down at the ground and turned to leave. I felt truly terrible for him, but I could not explain to him that the reason I would never contribute to the Cub Scouts of Boy Scouts again was because both groups had become political advocacy group for homosexuals and illegal aliens. Those vile actions turned me completely off to both groups years ago. The poor little fella had no knowledge of things like that in the world, or the political views of adults like me. He was completely innocent and simply trying to grow up in a ruined nation. As far as I'm concerned, the Left wronged and robbed that little boy and millions like him of the simple pleasures in life; the same pleasures that my friends and I enjoyed as children. The Left has co-opted and ruined virtually everything! I despise what they have done and how their actions have directly changed me and my naturally-altruistic patterns of behavior. In a normal world, I would have invited that little boy into our home, my wife would have fed him some milk and cookies, and I would bought a significant quantity of what he was selling while I asked him about his adventures in the Cub Scouts. Because of the Left-wing extremists, he left there dejected and sad, I felt terrible, and my bitter opposition to everything appalling that the Left stands for grew stronger. In light of the news you posted, Joseffy, I won't be buying any more Girl Scout cookies ever again either. To remedy all of this, Congress MUST repeal all of the oppressive laws that forcibly compel inclusion based on race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc. We MUST be allowed to form our own groups and organizations based on our own standards without fear of lawsuits or imprisonment. I don't want to contribute money to groups that advocate or condone homosexuality, illegal immigration, sexual abuse of children, and leftist worldviews. Damn the Left for using innocent children's groups to advance their disgusting and vile agenda! -ng-
