    Nice, so now predators that prefer little girls will have more reign.

    And what about the Girl Scouts? Can we start letting boys in there to start selling cookies and whatever the hell else they do?

        Why am I a bigot?

        Because pedos hiding in the Boy Scouts have a wider selection of targets?

        Because Girl Scouts exist, so girls can join that organization to do all of the things Boy Scouts can do?

        Because the only thing anyone attributes to Girl Scouts are their cookies?

        What am I wrong on?
