Missouri Pharmacists Refuse to Stock "Morning After" Pill

Missouri Pharmacists Bypassing Conscience Debate by Not Stocking the Abortifacient Morning-After Pill

ST. LOUIS, Missouri, May 11, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Most Missouri pharmacists are bypassing the conscience debate by simply not stocking the controversial abortifacient morning-after pill according to a survey of pharmacies conducted by NARAL (National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League) Pro-Choice Missouri. NARAL found that, of 928 pharmacies surveyed statewide, less than a third – 29 percent – carried the Plan B prescription abortifacient, marketed as “emergency contraception.”

Of course, those who have no qualms about murdering innocent children are frantic and angry about this. Initially, pharmacists are refusing to dispense the drugs based upon conscience. However, as we have seen the recent tyranical action of the 'governor' in Illinois, violations of conscience and religious beliefs mean nothing to these pro-death fanatics.

An example of the confused rhetoric of the minds of some people around these parts can be seen in a recent letter to the editor of the Post Dispatch:

Sex and sexism

Pharmacists and pharmacies refusing to dispense the morning-after pill is just another example of discrimination against women. Can you imagine a pharmacist denying a man Viagra or a condom?

If men had to take the responsibility of bearing and raising children, birth control and abortion never would be in danger of being illegal.

Because the world has no shortage of fools and malevolent individuals, the murder of innocent unborn children will continue unless hearts and minds are converted. I have no doubt that sooner or later, dictators posing as government officials will mandate, via goverment regulations, minimum types of drugs which pharmacists will be required to carry and dispense despite their religious beliefs and violations of conscience. Since a successful business decision may be made to refuse to stock such killing poisons, it would only be a matter of time before 'free enterprise' decisions are thwarted and pharmacies would become merely extensions of another government agency under the direction of pro-death zealots.
