Groups Threaten to Boycott American Girl
Some people should just turn Amish and get themselves out of the general population.
Having run out of obscene things to complain about, the American Family Association has started to jab at the good, pure and patriotic.
American Girl, a subsidiary of Mattel Inc., said the "I Can" initiative supports three specific Girls Inc. programs — building girls' skills in science and math, developing leadership skills, and encouraging athletic skills and team spirit.
"All of these aims are appropriate to our 7- to 12-year-old American Girl fans," the company said. "The American Girl brand exemplifies the values of wholesomeness and responsibility that we would expect any organization to commend."
But, the AFA thinks differently. By supporting Girls, Inc., the American Girl company is apparently supporting abortion and lesbians. Because there is a lot of pressure for 7 year olds to have abortions?

God, people are stupid.
In support, I should go buy myself that Samantha I've always wanted.

In a way, by supporting lesbians, you're supporting people who won't be getting abortions, and by supporting abortion, you're supporting women who clearly aren't lesbians. So it ought to cancel itself out.

If the company stays in business they're going to open an American Girls store at the Grove/Farmers Market in spring 2006.
