No, it isn't very different. I wouldn't be okay with GS selling cookies outside a liquor store, either, as I've said. You might note the difference between what happens in a private home and the general public.

Meh. Whatever. Kids are a product of the environment they were raised in, not a product of that one time they sold cookies at smokers choice. The liquor store in my neighborhood is next to a Quiznos and a tanning bed, behind a Starbucks, and across the parking lot from the grocery store. The same people in the grocery store and dry cleaners are in the liquor store. If my kid was gonna sell more cookies they could sell em there if they wanted, though a pot shop seems like a better option. Also, the same people in the grocery store and tanning bed are the same people in a legal pot shop. You never answered my question, though. You never dug a little deeper. What are you scared of? What is the underlying motivation? Exposure to dangerous drugs has already been crossed off of the list.

What is my motivation for trying to keep my kids ignorant of yet another legal drug for as long as possible?

I'd like to think because I'm a good parent who wants to protect his children for as long as he can. For the same reason why I voted against this in Colorado. I didn't want to see the legalization of yet another drug and I figured that things like this would happen when it was legalized.

Said all I needed to hear, brother.

You think that it's good idea to teach six year old kids about pot? If that's true, sure, we vehemently disagree and I'm perfectly fine with that.

:banghead::facepalm:

Your reaching hypocrite

Why not?

The Girl Scouts of America teach those same girls about abortion and lesbianism...

I don't see anything wrong w/ this. I think it's funny..and clever, really.

So you'd rather give "stoners" your phone number and address so they would know where you live and can come knocking on your door for cookies? Brilliant business decision.

Not everyone that comes out of a medicinal marijuana facility is some drug addicted crack head. It's not like these guys are going to randomly come over at 2am demanding cookies when they're high. LMAO

LMAO Traditionally their address and phone number aren't on there. The customer puts their info on the sheet. At most you might see a kids first name and troop number.

But a sign up sheet isn't really the point of cookie sales. They preach to us all year about the values the girls are supposed to be learning. There is a laundry list of rules the girls and us parents have to follow. It's not just supposed to be about making money. Colorado says no selling outside of businesses that are adult orientated. I don't have a problem with that. Take your kid 1000 feet down the road. The "stoners" will still see her.

Of course the mom in the article was "trying to be a cool mom." And I already am one.

That's Dongers terminology not mine. I have no problem with people that use medical marijuana or any other type of marijuana. I'm sure most people who use medical marijuana legitimately need it. I just don't think it's a good idea to post your address and phone number inside such facilities when you are involving young girls selling products for an organization.

ROFL

:bolt:

:spock:

Never signed a sign-up sheet to get GS cookies, eh? You give the GS your information.

sadly....it's true. they're now teaching them about family being bad.....men being bad. It's all part of the plan to try and teach kids at a young age that family and a bond between man and woman is bad.

I think what you meant to say was that they are teaching kids that a family not between a man and a woman isn't bad. That is very different. I have a tradition marriage and am glad my kids are growing up in a strong family unit. Nothing wrong with a traditional family. Nothing wrong with a non-traditional family either. What's important is that children are loved, supported, and encouraged. Gay people are perfectly capable of these core values that children thrive on.

No, he meant what he said.

They're teaching them that the community is the most important social structure, in lieu of the family.

So GS now teach kids that a man and woman traditional family unit is bad? That is what he said. Link please.

None of which I am aware...other than being a Dead Head back in the day.
