INDIANAPOLIS — An Indiana lawmaker won't support a resolution celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts because he believes it is a "radicalized organization" that supports abortion and promotes homosexuality.
Rep. Bob Morris of Fort Wayne has sent a letter to fellow Indiana House Republicans explaining why he opposes the nonbinding resolution.
The Journal Gazette reported Monday (http://bit.ly/wkGLqP) that Morris said he found online allegations that the Girl Scouts are a tactical arm of Planned Parenthood, encourage sex and allow transgender females to join.

Spokeswoman Ashley Sharp of the Girl Scouts of Northern Indiana-Michiana says it's aware of negative websites but says they haven't affected the group.
