I'd still like to know why it would be any of anyone else's business why this woman wanted or needed emergency contraception. Even if she'd chosen to have unprotected sex and conceived, it is *still legal* in this country for her to unpregnify herself...for a little while longer, anyway. Therefore, it is within her rights to utilize any legally available method to end her condition.
I think we'd all be better off if we worried as much about the erosion of our civil rights as we do about zygotes. A woman owns her body last time I checked.
And, before anyone asks, I would not personally be party to an abortion if I had a say in the matter. I am against it for me (not that I'm likely to have any further need for this position in my lifetime), but I am vehemently for women to continue to be allowed to make their own choices in the matter of reproduction. If God (tm) doesn't like it, I'm pretty sure he'll let the unfortunate ex-mother know, right? Isn't that how it works?
