A Walgreens employee refused to sell condoms to a couple on religious grounds

Yeah, and that’s the issue. If their beliefs are against the products that their company sells…

Their beliefs aren't against the products.​

out of the big 3 (CVS Walgreens Rite Aid) I found myself buying in Walgreen's more because of the prices and the stores being cleaner but fukk em. this will go way farther than this

“Well babe…..can’t get pregnant if you swallow”

 

[Reflected]

Damn, Walgreens will lead the charge on contraceptives, the perfect political story to get people amped for a SCOTUS ruling. And this isn't the first time this has occurred, Walgreens has continuously backed employees "exercising their beliefs". But why would anyone have a problem with contraceptives, I thought life started at conception? We already have states enforcing one aspect of your religion, why can't we stop there? I thought we believed in freedom of religion? Ah, but everyone knows there can be no consistency to their behavior, inconsistency is their foundation.

They should've went to the Arab store instead

Eventually there's going to be someone out there hustling fake plan B pills

That and abortions, and other avenues that were previously handled by physicians, almost like there was a time when this was the case and we likely improved mortality rates by recognizing it as a medical right... Nah, pro-life America would never take steps that would contribute to an increase in mortality.

this is incredibly stupid. even married people use condoms

Their religion covers that too, depending on who you ask.

 

[Westbama Heartthrob]

That's what I figured. But i'm trying to figure out why its not discrimination to practice it?

Probably has to be against a legally protected class to be classified as discrimination

Like someone can't be denied service for being chinese or paralyzed

But ugly gang might have to catch an L

 

[SadimirPutin]

The US us a dumb fukkung country and Walgreens us very stupid for that policy

 

[Doobie Doo]

this is incredibly stupid. even married people use condoms

TLR said this would only effect irresponsible whores?

How not sway?

 

[At30wecashout]

So again, we were just fear mongering, right?

No, this isn't happening often right now...but look how quick "Leave it up to the states" turned into "Prosecute them if they leave" followed up by proposals to ban contraception. This was literally less than a month. Folks gonna see this right wing religious folks are going to be a beast to deal with going forward.

That employee needs their ass beat on religious grounds.

 

[Deafheaven]

Country is a shythole

Their beliefs aren't against the products.​

No, but a lot of my job is customer service-oriented.​
