I agree. What a joke.

I quickly skimmed through it, but if I'm understanding it, then I would have to say: if you don't like the way the company treats you, then f*cking leave! And tell your friends not to shop there.

"What we saw today was five male justices essentially rule that discrimination against women is not discrimination at all," Ilyse Hogue"



Even moreso...



The reason a fetus has more rights than a woman in America is because a fetus still has a chance of being a man.



I mean what...

Well there is that. But that's just a small part of a bigger issue.

If all the women grew a pair and left, I think they'd get the hint.

The point is, they shouldn't have to. Freedom of religion is also freedom FROM religion. If you don't choose to use contraception, that's fine, but don't tell other women they can't either because it's against your religion. The argument I've heard is that Hobby Lobby isn't denying women contraception, they're just saying they shouldn't have to pay for it. This argument is at odds with how insurance works. When you have insurance you're not paying for contraception or any other medical procedure. You're paying for insurance. Hobby Lobby isn't going to get a discount because their policy no longer covers contraception. They're still paying the same amount because what they're paying for is insurance.

I still disagree with you. As an employee, you are agreeing to THIER terms and are on THEIR property. If you don't like their terms, then leave and find work elsewhere. The same applies to gays working for Chic-Fil-A. Why would you work for someone who doesn't like you or your beliefs? It's stupid. Other people shouldn't have to change just because someone doesn't like it. You just leave and never turn back.
