WOW is all I can say.
This incident drove me crazy. Apparently, freedom of religion only extends to pro-life people. Pharmacists are actually allowed to refuse to dispense emergency contraception, and regular contraception, if it conflicts with their religious beliefs. So, in the process of protecting someone's freedom of religion, other people's religious and civil liberties get stomped into the mud. Sickening.
Mrs. Greenjeans Reviewed by Mrs. Greenjeans on . police mistreatment of women man I can't believe this. First they put a rape victim in jail and now cnn is reporting cops not letting a women who was pregnant and bleeding go to the hospital for 9 hours and the baby died. She asked 21 times and the cop said "how is that my problem". This just makes me so mad. Rating: 5
