Two Spunky Conservative Girl Scouts

Two Spunky Conservative Girl Scouts

A teen member of the Girl Scouts of the United States of America is in the news and for the same reason another Scout made (some) headlines last month: They believe only girls should be Girl Scouts. More importantly, they believe in principles.

In December, 15 year old Sydney Volanski appeared on FNC’s “Fox and Friends” and outed the GSUSA as a sinister tool of the Democrat Party and has abandoned its mission as an apolitical advocate for American girls and had adopted that party’s ”progressive” goals.

See her website here http://speaknowgirlscouts.com/.

Among other substantiated allegations, Ms. Volanski charged the GSUSA leadership with blatant propagandizing by guiding Girl Scouts seeking sources of information to such extremist sources as George Soros’ Media Matters, its own publication, MEdia, and to America’s premiere abortionist, Planned Parenthood.

In addition to that misguided guidance to purveyors of leftist propaganda, in the interests of promoting perverse diversity, the GSUSA has dropped the requisite mention of God from the Girl Scout Promise and promotes its own version of the military’s former “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy in regard to sexual orientation.

The articulate Ms. Volanski found all that “progressive” abandonment of Scout tradition and principles repugnant as did other Scout members and leaders who ultimately left the GSUSA after a transgendered, biological boy was admitted to their ranks.

See “The Death of the Girl Scouts” for full details on the motivations of Sydney Volanski and those leaders. (http://bit.ly/zBGq0s.)

Proving they are not alone in their repugnance over the decline of an organization that had long been a model of excellence for future women of America, a Ventura County, California teen Girl Scout, identified only as “Taylor,” has joined the nationwide protest against the GSUSA.

The Death of the Girl Scouts

The Death of the Girl Scouts

Anyone who has ever been a member of the Girl Scouts of the United States of America, a Scout leader, or active supporter of the GSUSA knows the organization has always been one of the finest in the country and the preeminent group advocating for American girls and young women.

Until recently.

Celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2012, the GSUSA boasts a membership of over 2.3 million girls aged 10 to 17. They used to recite the Girl Scout Promise: “On my honor, I will try: To serve God and my country, To help people at all times, And to live by the Girl Scout Law.”

Their Promise is similar to the Boy Scout Oath, except in regard to the reference to God which the GSUSA made optional in 1993. That decision followed one two years earlier to adopt a “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy on sexual orientation. The earlier change was ostensibly made because the organization didn’t want “to intrude on personal matters”; God was dropped because a few people complained.

Both alterations of basic principles were made despite the fact virtually everything in the Girl Scout Law is “personal” and they were made in the interests of demonstrating the GSUSA adheres to the popular fascinations with diversity and inclusiveness.

Those fascinations represented the beginnings of Girl Scout political correctness and may have sounded the death knells of a once proud and honorable institution. The delayed ramifications of the GSUSA going PC were reflected in last month’s dissolution of troops and the recent exposé of Girl Scout attempts at political indoctrination.

As reported by the ChristianPost.com, and by few if any other media, “Three Girl Scout troops at a Christian school in Louisiana have disbanded in protest of a policy of inclusion for transgenders,” more precisely, accepting a biological boy into the Girl Scouts.

Regardless of one’s opinion of Sarah and Bill Tyler, parents of 8 year old Dana/Danann Tyler who indulged their son’s sexual identity confusion by allowing him to dress as a little girl, sent him to school lugging a princess lunch box, and bought him high-heeled slippers, we should all be able to empathize with the Louisiana parents.

Dana/Danann Tyler doesn’t seem to be the subject of the controversy in Lousiana–at last report, the Tylers lived in Southern California–and Christian Post doesn’t give the Louisiana boy’s name. Still, the situations are similar. Dana/Danann’s nationally-televised story was examined here in “Smile! It’s Transgender Awareness Week!”

The push for transgendered boys joining the Girl Scouts isn’t confined to either California or Louisiania. A Colorado mother also tested the GSUSA inclusion policy, was rejected by her local troop, called a press conference, then was heard from no more.

The Louisiana moms/scout leaders didn’t exactly give up, however.

They resigned their posts, disbanded their troops, and are considering re-alignment with an alternative group, American Heritage Girls, which is “dedicated to the mission of building women of integrity through service to God, family, community and country,” commitments now suspect in the GSUSA.

Fifteen year old Sydney Volanski is also commited. She’s committed to outing the GSUSA as a front for the Democrat Party and the progressive movement to undermine Girl Scouts’ integrity and non-partisan, apolitical tradition.

The amazingly-articulate teenager made an appearance on FNC’s “Fox and Friends” Thursday morning and revealed the heretofore unknown and un-publicized GSUSA campaign to seduce scouts into believing all the liberal media claptrap. . .
