You people obviously have never had to deal with a quack doctor before.

As a doctor myself that can perscribe anything up to and including narcotics, I think this is a very bad idea.

There are checks and balances in any system, while you can whine about some pharmacist not perscribing an abortion pill, thats not what is really at stake here. What this does is give any doctor with a licence the ability to percribe any medication no matter how far out of their field it is.

For every 15 year old in some Georga town that gets to take an abortion pill because of this bill, there will be hundreds of screw ups, medical reactions due to multiple perscriptions, and outright quackery.
