What’s to stop a rapist from giving their victim one of these after they slip them a mickey and have their way with them?

I am sure the FDA will make all prescription drugs with side effects less than or equal to Plan-B over the counter post haste....

Yeah, i am totally sure of it...

One has to wonder how much money the makers of the Plan B pill expect to make from this....

I can’t wait for the Dewey, Cheatham and Howe law practices stumping for business on all the women who have been injured through using Plan B.

So my kids can buy Plan B, but if I buy and feed them raw milk I’m going to jail.

Your 15 yr old daughter can get an anonymous OTC abortion, but should she bring a Tylenol to school for menstrual cramps, she and/or you could be arrested.

So I have to pay prescription prices for my medicine that is fairly common, but an abortion drug is now like tylenol....???

What the hell is up with that?
