"The tiny, miniscule perecentage refers to the number of rape victims seeking the morning-after pill vs the overall number of women who seek it"
Why don't you give me some verifiable numbers.
"I'm not dismissive of them. If they do not seek police help after a rape, and instead seek out their doctors, they are reducing the likelihood of getting help from the police."
Many women in he said/she said situations choose not to go the police bcse they believe it'll be an exercise in futility. Convictions in such cases are not exactly common and they decide not to go through all that. They still need medical care, though. I don't agree with that attitude, but it exists.
"If you read the article, Target makes a point of saying that the pill would be made available somehow. That is not being dismissive."
I did read the article. My problem with this is that it opens the door to the idea that people have a right to demand that their employers accommodate their religious beliefs, even when those beliefs go against things that the government and the people, for better or worse, have deemed legal. If someone finds that performing their job is morally offensive, they should seek work elsewhere. Render unto Caesar...
Well, you and I will have to agree to disagree because I see no problem with Target's policy.
But Target defends its policy, pointing out that if the pharmacist refuses to dispense the drug, he or she must pass it on to another pharmacist at the same location. If none is available, the pharmacist must call another Target and make sure the drug is available for the customer.
Target is going out of its way to acommodate the religious beliefs of its' workkers while ensuring its customers have access to the disputed abortifacient.
