WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Boycotting American Girl products because the company supports Girls Inc.? American Girl is not alone in funding the rabidly pro-abortion group.
Douglas R. Scott, president of Life Decisions International (LDI), today blasted Time Warner for its "ongoing support of pro-abortion entities." Time Warner donated $600,000 to Girls Inc., a group the company characterized as "a national non-profit that inspires all girls to be strong, smart, and bold."
"Actually, Girls Inc. is a non-profit that indoctrinates girls so they become pro-abortion advocates," Scott said. "Considering its philosophy, one could reasonably predict that many of these 'strong, smart, and bold' girls will eventually end up lying on a table in front of an abortionist. And Girls Inc., along with the corporations that support it, will be largely responsible."
Time Warner, which appears on LDI's Boycott List due to its support of Planned Parenthood, has also supported the YWCA, which has taken a pro-abortion position.
"Groups that work with young people need to get out of the abortion-advocacy business," Scott said. He identified Girls Inc., YWCA, Camp Fire, Girl Scouts, and Outward Bound as nonprofits that either have a pro-abortion policy statement or have worked with groups that do.
"It's time for those who care about children to confront these groups and tell them they have a 'choice.' They can stop engaging in pro-abortion activity and working with pro-abortion groups or they can stop working with children," Scott said. "Adults need to stop using organizations that could be doing a lot of good to advance their personal agendas."
