Stop the War on Women
From an email I received:
While working as a rape crisis counsellor I became aware of how difficult the fear of pregnancy was for many, along with the horrible experience of being raped. Personally, I think all hospitals should dispense the pill, as an option for the survivors of rape and not force them to go to a doctor and get another invasive exam. But, what good is it, if they go through the exam and them possibly have to go to another doctor only to walk into a drug store and not get the prescription based on the "religious or moral beliefs" of the store owner or salesperson.
The victims of rape need to feel they have some control in their lives and if they can't even get a prescription filled to help prevent a pregnancy, we are being abusive to them.
People who are anti-abortion often have no heart for rape victims. They are so tied to their belief system that they are very narrow minded. They should not have this opportunity to hurt a woman and her ego and implant fear on their psyche. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is serious...and is often the result of such a situation.
Please, if you can, take the time to sign the petition.
