Pharmacists can't refuse Plan B pill

[FA_Q2]

I believe pharmacies should carry ALL EMERGENCY medicines/drugs

That's fine. When they stop carrying emergency drugs such as those FA mentioned earlier, we'll discuss it.

Actually, my original point was that they currently DO NOT CARRY some of those medications. They already have stopped carrying those meds because the costs involved. Not ONE person here has voiced concern over this minus the ONE statement that care made above but there is a HUGE push to require plan b carried and sold no matter what. That is gross hypocrisy and covers the true intent here: control.

Still I ask more questions that have not been answered. Should all pharmacies be required to be open 24/7? I have not seen a response to whether or not a long 3 day weekend should be allowed because they are selling 'emergency' medications. No one wants to address the issues because they know there is no real stance here: there is NO reason that a pharmacy should EVER be required to sell anything. Plain and simple. Should you continue down the path that makes them carry 'emergency' medications then you would need to require that they are also readily available at all times - no closing or holidays. No weekends or other closures at all. All medications sold weather profitable, needed or even practical. The fact is there are places that fill this role - hospitals. We most certainly do not need pharmacies to be forced into it when there is a place for these requirements.

A doctor has a right to refuse performing an abortion.

Therefore, a pharmacist has a right to refuse to carry or provide Plan B pills.

I see it as an emergency

It's not an emergency. An emergency is a situation where one is at serious risk of immediate death or injury if one does no receive immediate care.

The worst case scenario is that you find yourself in need of some pennyroyal tea or other abortifacient.

and i see it reducing abortion, reducing the killing of an embryo or fetus.

So are condoms, regular BC, and really cheap perfumes that make you smell bad so you don't get laid in the first place.

Again, we're not talking about any emergencies here. The only time this would coincide with an emergency would be in case of sexual assault, and everyone here has voiced support for making it available at hospitals, women's centers, etc.

You are wholly unable to present any valid reason for talking over these businesses.

That's fine. When they stop carrying emergency drugs such as those FA mentioned earlier, we'll discuss it.

Stroke, heart attack, or the most serious asthma attacks can lead to death or serious injury without treatment. Irresponsibility with your bf/the guy you met at the bar does not constitute an emergency. It constitutes stupidity.

Pregnancy =/= Death

That you people have to resort to such dishonest tricks and spin highlights the fact that you have no real case. It's not surprising though, I already called this out for what it is in post 487

You want everyone to have access to bc? fine. Distribute it through public channels. That's what the Health Department is for. If you really cared about the women and this was truly about access to bc, you wouldn't be trying so hard to turn this into an excuse to take over businesses and find a way to stick it to those mean old Christians who dare to think differently than you.

They're not part of 'our health care system' unless they're publicly owned. They might provide some medical supplies or services, but they are private sector. The public sector, which the State may use to make such drugs available are the public hospitals and the Health Department.

So? I find it hypocritical and retarded that a store sells wine but not beer, even though wine has more alcohol than beer and they try to justify it by saying 'we don't sell beer and liquor'. That doesn't mean the State should make them sell Sam Adams Cherry Wheat just so I don't have to go somewhere else or go to the library and buy it online.


If you've evidence that medical professionals are not doing their job, then make a thread about it and we can address it and rectify the problem if it exists.

I've never even met a gyno. But I've heard the radio, been online, watched TV, and spoken to people outside of a fundamentalist church in the middle of the Midwest. Oh, and I went to school some years back and had sex ed classes.

With very few exceptions, any woman ignorant of bc, including Plan B, is that way purely of her own fault. All she has to do is enter any college, feminists coffeeshoppe, library- or get on Google- and the information is all out there for anyone who wants it.

Let's perform an experiment.

I'm going to google 'I forget to use birth control'


The fourth listing includes the following:

If you think there could be a chance that you are pregnant (and you don't want to be), Emergency Contraception (Plan B) is always an option. It is available in many pharmacies over the counter without a prescription if you're over 18. Something that I have always found to be effective is to set the alarm on your cell phone or outlook calendar to remind you!

That link?

Has this scenario ever happened to you? The condom breaks while having sex? It happens all the time, but luckily there is EC (Emergency Contraception) or the "Morning After" pill as a backup -- accidents do happen!

EC, also known as Plan B, should be taken within 24 hours after intercourse to be most effective, but can be taken up to 3 days after. It is NOT meant to be your main form of birth control, since it's only 89% effective against preventing pregnancy and does NOT protect you from STIs like HIV.

Now let's Google 'Plan B birth control'

(since, you know, we never went to high school, watched tv, listened to the radio, asked a librarian about birth control, or been in a city before now)

Let's try Olympia, Washington, since that's where this story appears to be taking place


Holy snap, there are twenty-five locations listed, including a Rite-Aid-- a major company where the store manager can't do like the owner of Ralph's. It also says Safeway has it, and there's a Walgreens. And a Target... Ralph's is still listed; they need to update that. Good thing it lists the address and phone number for each location as well.

Now.... you really expect us to believe that Walgreens, Walmart, Rite-Aid, and Target are all going to suddenly decide Plan B is evil and not something they want to make money off of?

You people are creating a bogey out of nothing and using dishonest scare tactics to get people to go along with yet another power grab by the totalitarian socialists who call themselves 'progressives' today and pretend to care about women whenever it seems like a good way to forward their own agenda and feed their desire for control.

Three pharmacies, according to the article, are fighting this. Three. Plan B's own website lists 25 pharmacy's that they know of they are carrying it (with the exception of Ralph's, bringing the number to 24).

the bottom line for me, is that this must be taken right away for its effectiveness, and I do not want to see more abortions, but fewer abortions.

The bottom line is you have at least 24 other pharmacies to go to. Not to mention going down to 402 Legion Way, Suite 201

You really think Planned Parenthood is going to stop carrying Plan B if the State doesn't force those women-hating monsters to give women the option of not having a baby?

But don't let the facts get in the way. there are more important things than the women here, right? After all, those evil Christians are still living according to their morals and still have the freedom to run their private enterprises and sell only what they wish. They must be stopped!

Planned Parenthood isn't open on weekends and some holidays, what if it is a three day weekend?

 

[Luissa]

If I don't live in the real world, where do I live? The matrix? A giant computer simulation, Mister Negotiator?

This whole thing is about a bunch of lazy sluts who don't want to have to risk needing to go to a second pharmacy (or Planned Parenthood, the Health Dept., or the online store FA linked to earlier), so they want the State to begin taking over businesses and tell what a shopkeeper must sell.

Hell, they could even lie and go to a crisis center or the ER- everyone here has voiced support for making Plan B available in emergency rooms and crisis centers.

You know what, that's not what it's about at all.- because if it really were about access to BC, this wouldn't have ever been a problem. It's really about someone daring to act according to their own morality and not sell a product they don't think is right to sell. The only reason they chose BC and not alcohol to attack these christians over is because they know that by playing the victim and crying, they can get all the blind neofeminists to back them in their attack.

If it were about access to BC, then everyone here who's trying to dictate what these business owners must sell would've simply agreed to the solution proposed at the beginning of this thread.

We see this for what it is: big government trying to control businesses and anger at the thought of a Christian daring to act in accordance with their moral beliefs. It's just the latest example of power-hungry militant antitheists and totalitarian socialists trying to impose their will on all who differ with them or dare to stand in their way. And we don't like it.

You can try to wrap it up any way you please, but we see this for what it truly is and we're sure as hell not going to be silent and simply watch this shit continue. Any politician or officer who tries to enforce this crap should be tarred and feathered.

I bet the lazy sluts you are referencing don't even give a shit one way or another.
And if they don't want to carry it, it isn't a big deal here. If I lived in a smaller town, I would care, because if no one carries it, I would be screwed any way you look at it. It is also very hypocritical. If they are going to refuse one drug because of their beliefs they better refuse viagra and other drugs that go against their beliefs.

Clearly, we need a law forcing Planned Parenthood to be open 24/7.

Planned Parenthood isn't open on weekends and some holidays, what if it is a three day weekend?

I guess you'll have to be responsible, then, won't you?

Shame there isn't regular birth control or any way to end a pregnancy after implantation before the child really begins to develop or anything....

 

[JBeukema]

If I lived in a smaller town, I would care, because if no one carries it, I would be screwed any way you look at it.

Yes, since there's no other way to prevent pregnancy, it can't be ordered online, and once impregnation occurs it's impossible to stop it

It is also very hypocritical. If they are going to refuse one drug because of their beliefs they better refuse viagra and other drugs that go against their beliefs.

Yes... if you can't tell them what they shall and shan't sell, they'd best sell what you say they shall and not sell what you say they shan't

 

[Immanuel]

Planned Parenthood isn't open on weekends and some holidays, what if it is a three day weekend?

Is that justification for forcing a business to carry a product it does not wish to sell?
