    And then you’ll get the shitty pharmacists/techs that won’t sell it on “personal beliefs” grounds like plan B.

    I can’t wait to see how that scenario plays out in court when there is a conflict between the pharmacist’s beliefs and the customer’s freedom of speech religious rights related to recent rulings. But I suppose given the precedent set by SCOTUS the pharmacist is allowed to disriminate based on their religious beliefs…yeah, it’ll be interesting. I hope to see the christofascist efforts backfire by everyone else using their own shit tactics against them.
