Yet some want additional legislation to protect pharmacists who believe certain birth control drugs are forms of abortion, Karen Brauer, president of Pharmacists for Life, told the Reuters news agency. The group provides legal advice and support to pharmacists.

Brauer told Reuters she believes doctors will eventually begin ordering women to abort disabled children, or refuse to treat them after birth.

"They'll force women to kill their children ... It will be like China. It's the next logical step," she told Reuters.


Wow, slippery slope much? Next logical step my ass.

I'm assuming that this legislation would prohibit companies from firing pharmacists who refuse to dispense birth control. What a crock. If you don't want to dispense birth control, don't be a pharmacist, and if you have an employee who doesn't want to dispense birth control, fire him or her.

I think of it like this -- I'm a vegetarian, so I'm not about to go work at a job that would require me to serve meat. Seriously, DUH.
