I heard on the radio that a pharmacist at Osco in Chicago told a woman she would have to come back later and get her RU 486. She would not fill the prescription. The Governor of Illinois is involved in this, saying the pharmacist must fill the prescription, or there will be fines or closing of the pharmacy for violating the woman's right to have a pharmaceutical abortion. Who do you think is right and why?

I personally feel that a medical professional can refuse to do something if they are opposed to it for personal or professional reasons. I don't see how you can compel a licensed professional to do something that is against their better judgement, but I have a bit of a libertarian bent.
