``It's one thing to conscientiously object. But you cannot intend to inflict emotional harm on a woman when she is making a very important and often very emotional decision in her life.''

What law supports this statement you lower-than-pond-scum trial attorney?

The law that supports this assertion is the Tort: Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress. This tort provides a cause of action to someone injured by outrageous conduct of another if the person intended to inflict emotional distress upon the other. Do not interpret this as support for this woman's claim. I think she is ridiculous, and will probably lose even if she can prove the pharmacist said what she claims. To me this is not outrageous conduct.
