Pharmacist Gene Herr was fired by Eckerd's Drugs after he refused to fill a prescription for a rape victim seeking emergency contraception. -- This man is an asshole. Enough said.
No. This man is as bad as the rapist. We have a woman who was violated. She wants to make sure that she is not trapped with the child of that union. Even if you support the argument (which I don't)that a medical person has the right to dent treatment, Mr. Herr could be sentencing the rape victim to bear a child that will ALWAYS, remind her of the rape.
THAT IS A CRIME OF A MAGNITUDE SIMILAR TO THE RAPE. A moral stand is something YOU do to take a stand. It is NOT punishing someone else for your beliefs.
