The Girl Scouts of Colorado's decision to prohibit their members from selling the organization's classic cookies outside marijuana stores is generating mixed reaction on social media. The organization issued a statement on its Facebook page Friday to dispel rumors of Girl Scouts setting up shop outside retail pot shops, effectively prohibiting members from selling at dispensaries in the state, where recreational marijuana is now legal. "Girl Scouts of Colorado doesn’t allow girls to sell cookies outside of any adult-oriented business, whether that is a bar, strip club, casino, liquor store or marijuana dispensary. We recognize these are legitimate businesses, but we don’t feel they are an appropriate place for girls to be selling cookies in Colorado," the organization said. This is hilarious! It sounds like the equivalent of "it's illegal to hunt ducks over a baited pond". The girls that came up with this idea most likely have stoner parents,and connected their observations at home with the question "where best to market our product?",and came up with the perfect answer. With thinking like that,they are going to go far in life. I think if I were unemployed and living in Denver that I would go stock up on Pop Tarts from the Dollar store,and stand outside the pot shops and double my money selling them to the stoners.]http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/02/2 ... selling-cookies-outside-pot-sh[/URL]

Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
