Compromise Is For The Sterile

Compromise Is For The Sterile

Good discussion at Pandagon on the pharmacy "conscience clause" issue. One commentattor sums up my thoughts:

In the end is not about the pharmacists who have come out with their own personal views, it is the potential for this to emerge in the form of intense community pressure on pharmacists in every small town everywhere. It legimates the rights of every congregation in the country to put pressure on some poor congregant pharmacist. And rather than being shunned by friends and family and undergoing constant 'counseling' by Pastor Bob a lot of these guys are going to crack. Just as book stores and record stores crack under the same kind of pressures.


Much as has happened to abortion providers; how real is choice without access in, say, North Dakota, which when last I checked had only one doctor who did abortions?
