Ah yes, same oll same oll, after making a falacious claim of discrimination you jump right to the extreme rarity and not the representative sample of costomers who buy condoms, all while compleatly ignoring my point.

A rape victim can find out where to get her MAP from the police station after fileing her report or from the doctor who gave her the perscription (assuming the hospital itself doesn't have it on hand).

A private buisness should not be under any obligation to referr a costomer to a competetor who can or will offer a product and/or service they can not or will not perform themselves.
Hey, if you don't like extreme cases, I'll give you the very common 'broken condom' situation. Additionally, the BC pill is sometimes prescribed to treat certain conditions and not necessarily to avoid conception.

As for there being no obligation to refer a customer elsewhere, I totally disagree with you. When it comes to health issues there should be a moral obligation to assist people to the best of your abilities. And that includes not confiscating someone's prescription just in case they DO find a pharmacy that will have the audacity to fill it.
