The fact that there are people who want to bring their personal private beliefs into their public and professional lives demonstrates that they are wholly unprofessional.
The fact that there are now doctors who are doing this bullshit shows they are also completely unethical. "Do no harm." If you refuse treatment to someone because of your own biased personal out-of-profession beliefs, you are doing harm by leaving them suffering and/or untreated. Unprofessional, unethical.
So, yes, it makes sense to make it illegal for a healthcare provider to say "no" to treating someone because of their sexual orientation. You are a medical professional, not a fucking judge of character; shut the fuck up and do your fucking job, and if it takes the law stepping in to force you to do it, so fucking be it.
It only makes sense to make it illegal if gays are not being served. Then you have a societal problem that needs to be addressed. However there is no evidence this is the case. People will always have their hangups or phobias or whatever so let those thing works themselves out naturally instead of trying to force this issue just to keep people from being butthurt. Doctors have been refusing to see some patients ever since there have been doctors so this is not some new phenomena. Some doctors refuse to see medicare or tricare patients...should we make that illegal?
If people like Esquilax would just stop getting butthurt....if they would just stop trying to control everyone elses behavior.....problems like this wold vanish like a fart in the wind.
