Take a Hike, Haters!

Okay, let me get this straight.

We are repairing broken communities. We are fighting for equality in our nation. We are cleaning the rivers and removing toxins from the air you breathe. We are saving lives with first aid and CPR. We are sending care packages to orphans in Uganda and Peru. We are educating people about the dangers of distracted driving, substance abuse, STDs, eating disorders, diabetes, and Lyme disease. We are breaking rules and laws that have governed gender, class, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, special abilities, disabilities, religious beliefs, and every other social norm this planet has come up with. We are speaking out, dreaming big, reaching our goals, and becoming the leaders of tomorrow. And we can do all this while selling cookies and looking cute.

And you have the gall to tell me that Girl Scouts U.S.A. is an organization of sissies?
