PharmProtest in Response to AR Rape Victim's EC

Ok, so ya remember my post about the young AR rape victim who was denied emergency contraception b/c the pharmacist didn't feel like doing his job but instead chose to deny the private right that exists between a doctor and the patient? Well some righteously angered citizens decided to fight back at this pharmacy: Flamingnerd via Live Jrnl: "Oh man and you should have seen people's responses! It was beautiful! I had so many people nodding/shaking their heads in agreement/disgust. Of course there was at least one piece of SHIT misogynist, as his car started pulling away he said, "Fuck the whores!" I was amazed! It was a 40 something man too! This was no stupid teenager. But anyway I had 2 TV stations videotaping my "explanation", and a LOT of pictures taken by a couple news reporters. My fellow protesters were cheering me on too!... People in this country should be outraged. We need to stop our complacency. This is just one way the religious right seeks to oppress us and drag us into the dark ages." Amen sister... and at least 1 AR paper picked up on this story, too. Grassroots' anger= change.
