Religious freedom, yo! Land of the free!

But seriously, people wonder why a lot of us oppose bills like Indiana's. Because it invariably leads to this kind of crap where it quite clearly inconveniences and even puts people's health at risk when they have to go to multiple pharmacies, possibly wait days to fill a needed medical prescription. A woman can hemorrhage and die from retained placenta and tissue if it's not expelled quickly. She doesn't have the luxury of wandering around to multiple pharmacies possibly over the course of many days trying to find one to fill the prescription her Doctor
ordered.
It's also frustrating from a work ethic standpoint. There are thousands of people that would give just about anything for that job while it's being occupied by some religious t**t who only wants to fulfill a tiny percent of their job duties that they were hired to do. If you're hired to do a job, do the entire job or get out of the way for someone who will...especially in healthcare fields.
It's like someone becoming a paramedic and then saying it's against their religion to give CPR so they'll let someone potentially die waiting around for a paramedic who will. It's no different to me. And I'm sure it's happened and will again soon enough....because heaven forbid someone's
life intrude on someone's faith for thirty seconds to put some pills in a bottle and do their job.
Pay should be docked the cost of each prescription they refuse to fill and Doctors should be able to bill them for the time it takes out of their day to be on the phone to other pharmacies.
They don't specify if they had to go to multiple pharmacies because the others don't carry the pill. And why in the hell drive when you can call and verify? That sounds fishy.
That, or she's that ******** stupid.
I think that, if the pharmacy has the prescription, then the pharmacist should either fill it or call in a pharmacist who will (why didn't they ask to speak to the manager? Because the manager would have called in another pharmacist or told them when they would be in.)
Thousands of people waiting for that job? That's funny. We're so short handed on pharmacists as it is that they pretty much get to write their own checks in the majority of places.
And I don't give two ******** if it 'inconveniences' her.
Comparing this to a life saving situation where someone needs medical attention right that moment though? That's hilarious and so far out of reality it's astounding you even tried to go there.
This pill is a very tiny percentage (if even 1%) of the pharmacists job.
If this were a mom and pop shop, I could understand their doing this, or not even carrying it. It's Walmart. I''d have expected them to carry it, but this is in Millidgevile, which is the same place where they conveniently lost all the evidence against Rothlisberger amid his rape accusation. And they found out he was a buddy of all the cops... and they still performed the investigation and whoopsied that.
