  1. For those that want/need them, will find a way. Maybe Mexico or some other means, most likely not as safe as buying from a reputable pharmacy. Just another problem created.

  2. David’s point is apt. Laws don’t solve every problem. Some want the freedom to do what they want to do, while also being able to dictate how other people should live.

    Those who have the means will always be able to have access. If you do not have the means, you’re at the mercy of those who think this allows them to sleep better at night.

  3. 62% of US adults say abortion should be legal in all or most cases. 71% support free contraception. But let’s spend our time writing letters to Walgreens instead supporting women’s healthcare.

    1. More accurately, thank you Walgreens to caving to bully pressure by Republican AGs.

    2. A medication abortion can be used up to 11 weeks of pregnancy. At that point, it’s not an unborn child. It’s a fetus that is not viable outside of the uterus. The majority of abortions in the US are medication abortions. About 75% of abortion patients are low-income and nearly 60% of US women of reproductive age live in states where access to abortion is restricted. If you want fewer abortions, make contraception a priority for all women.

  4. Walgreens took a stand on what they think is right. Evidently they felt it
    was within the best interest of their company.

    Walgreens is a large national corporation. So I doubt that the conservatives
    in Indiana had anything to do with their decision.

    Many of these same commenters complaining about the Walgreens decision
    had no problem with corporations taking leftwing WOKE stances on issues.
    Leftwing issues that were false and rediculious p.

    1. Walgreens backed away from a legal threat from 19 AGs. They still sell cigarettes, so I don’t think they took a stand on anything.

  5. A medication abortion can be used up to 11 weeks of pregnancy. At that point, it’s not an unborn child. It’s a fetus that is not viable outside of the uterus.

    1. Walgreens sells alcohol, cigarettes, and junk food. So what??

      There’s a big difference selling cigarettes verses selling abortion pills.

  6. Correct, there is a huge difference.

    480,000 die in the USA each year from cigarettes. The 5th leading cause of death.

    0 die from abortion pills.
