This is exactly the problem Voltrabbit7:

Most of these people know nothing about their rights and our Constitution. They are falling deeper and deeper into the ignorance of American society.

Voltrabbit7:

You've just described how our "free" American society, is becoming Communistic. No more rights for health care providers.

Health care professionals don't work for the state, they shouldn't be forced by the state to do something that goes against their religious or ethical beliefs.

Maybe all these pro-choice people should start their own organization, go to school and open up their own pharmacies, instead of hiking on hard working pro-life professionals!

Communism? Are you in the 7th grade? Tell me how forcing pharmacists to do their job has anything to do with a radical distribution of wealth. Oh wait, you don't actually know what socialism is... your just a dumb fuck who uses the term "communism" for anything he disagrees with.

This makes me want to kick justforfun's ass.

What about a health-care providers right to freedom of religion:

Pharmacist are not government workers, they should not be forced by the government to do things they think are wrong. What happened to freedom of religion? This is just one of many trends occuring in our country...the slow trend toward communism.

Let all the pro-choice people support other pharmacies or go to school and open up their own store. This is America, and America means choice-shop where you want!

HA! This makes me want to vote for Reichert!

Yes, that's part of the 14th amendment. (Equal protection under the law) This means that should get treated the same as anyone else. The Pharmacist may refuse service to anyone. However, under equal protection, he can't fill some prescriptions and not fill others based on some discriminatory basis.

If you live in the boonies, another Pharmacy may be many miles away.

What part of the 4th and 14th amendment don't you understand?

[milofonbil]

If you had actually read the constitution and the bill of rights as you are advocating, then you would know that the 14th amendment under the liberty clause is also interpreted as the right to privacy. The pharmacist has no business placing his personal beliefs above the liberty of patients by refusing to fill a prescription.

"It is correct to say that congress, the government have no authority over how we live our lives." Of course they do. What do you think laws are for?
