Young boy wishes to join Girl Scouts

  • Bobby Montoya is a 7-year-old boy from Denver. Unlike a lot of young boys, Bobby has no desire to join the Boy Scouts. Instead, he wants to be a Girl Scout.

    We first saw Montoya's story over at 9news.com. The NBC affiliate reports that when the boy's  mother, Felisha Archuleta, tried to sign her son up for Girl Scouts, a troop leader told her no.

    Archuleta spoke with 9News about the incident. "I said, 'Well, what's the big deal?' She [the troop leader] said, 'It doesn't matter how he looks; he has boy parts, he can't be in Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts don't allow that, [and] I don't want to be in trouble by parents or my supervisor.'"

    Reporters with 9News contacted  Girl Scouts of Colorado about Montoya's application, which prompted the group to release a statement: "Our requests for support of transgender kids have grown, and Girl Scouts of Colorado is working to best support these children, their families and the volunteers who serve them. In this case, an associate delivering our program was not aware of our approach. She contacted her supervisor, who immediately began working with the family to get the child involved and supported in Girl Scouts. We are accelerating our support systems and training so that we're better able to serve all girls, families and volunteers."

    We placed a call to Rachelle Trujillo, vice president of communications at Girl Scouts of Colorado, for further clarification. She replied with this statement: "Girl Scouts is an inclusive organization, and we accept all girls in kindergarten through 12th grade as members. If a child lives life as a girl and the family brings the child to us to participate in Girl Scouts, Girl Scouts of Colorado welcomes her. Girl Scouts of Colorado respects the privacy of all girls and families we work with. When a family requests membership for their daughter, we do not require proof of gender, we respect the decisions of families."

    So it would seem that Bobby will get his wish. Gender-identity issues are becoming more common, especially among young children--which makes it more likely that the policy of the Girl Scouts will face future tests in the months and years ahead.

  • What do I care if all the food is GMO, the government begins persecuting Catholics, tortures us, satanism becomes the one world religion, and the world goes up in flames?

     :barf:

    It's this growing transgender trend that's going to persuade me one day to put some hemlock in my coffee.

  • There's going to be a mass (no pun intended) imflux of traditional, faithful Catholics to a planned community somewhere one day; I just know it in my bones.

    There's just so much perversion in the world these days.

    Funny, but I think part of the fault lies with the liberals who infected the world with Vat II. Think about it... for the first time in Church history, you had prelates and presiders (not priests) ENCOURAGING and ACCEPTING these kinds of disgusting attitudes and behaviors, both the trans nonsense AND the 'who cares' affirmation of it.

    You also had theologians (so-called) espousing beliefs that are heretical and run totally counter to not only the dogmas of the Church, but also to common sense and biology.

    Before those kinds of things were being advanced by these prelates, the idea of publicly admitting to such attitudes would have been scandalous and horrifying to the average INFIDEL, let alone to a Catholic.

    These days, this mother and her child would not only be ALLOWED to the NO table, but would be specially feted by people like Roger Criminal Mahony and his ilk.

    Immaculate Heart of Mary, triumph soon.

    Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.
    This evil of heresy spreads itself. The doctrines of godliness are overturned; the rules of the Church are in confusion; the ambition of the unprincipled seizes upon places of authority; and the chief seat [the Papacy] is now openly proposed as a rewar

    Now, that was good.

    Once again, common sense goes out of the window, alas.

    Exactly.

    Lesbian "parents"?  Otherwise it was taught somewhere by somebody!  Unless there was a medical gender problem.
