Let the pro-abort doctors dispense the drugs, then.

Pro-abortion feminists are not happy to have the "right to control their own bodies," as they put it. They want to force other people to cater to their choice. Surely, logical consistency compels you to agree that if no one may force a woman against her will to become and remain pregnant, no one may be forced against their will to assist a woman to avoid pregnancy or to abort a child.

You will not get an arguement from me about that.

I am appalled that there is actually a doctor involved in this. The lawyers I expect it from, but not from a doctor.

Any pharmacy that refuses to carry these should simply get out of the pharmacy business. A pharmacy should make all legal products available to those with perscriptions, the gubmint should STFU. This is a doctor/patient issue.

No pharmacy should be made to sell anything they do not want to. If another pharmacy wants to sell the product that is their bidness.

Yesiree. You'd think that in America, that would be a "no-brainer." Unfortunately not. Not even on FR. How far we have fallen!

Is the government mandating them to do it?

You're missing the point when you say the "gubmint shoud STFU". I agree that they should but it's the government here that's mandating that Wal-Mart carry it. Since when is that the governments role?

You've captured the essence of libertarian hypocrisy. Libertarians are anti-statist only to the extent that the state intrudes on their interests. They are fanatically pro-statist to the extent that state power is useful in forcing everyone else to accomodate and submit to libertarian interests.

Same state power, different set of criminals. In this case, the "criminal" is Wal-Mart. If Wal-Mart will not do what libertarians think Wal-Mart should do, libertarians have no qualms about calling in the state to crack heads.

I'm with you. Granted it is a licensed/restricted business (pharmacies) but so are other types of businesses. Is the state mandated liquor license holders stock EVERY available kind of alcohol? I think not.

A very sad commentary on a very sad state of affairs.

Should be able to choose not to. For instance, suppose a pharmacy gets broken into all the time by pill poppers over some product, so they decide not to carry it. You want Big Momma Government to tell them to carry it anyway?

The fact that emergency "contraception" can prevent implantation means it can be an abortifacient. At that point there's not a dime's worth of difference with RU-486.

It's an entirely different drug (RU-486 is mifepristol), but don't let accuracy detract from emotionalism, by all means. :)

The trial lawyers would love to force all wallmarts to carry the abortion pill so they can sue walmart when a customer suffers a serious side effect.

Maybe a little off topic, but are their any good articles/sources out there discussing these pills and their effects?
