I think someone made one offhand remark about abortion in a thread. That was
followed by several people all chiming in (me included) all saying they
didn't want to set off the standard debate.
Now we have all the Usual Suspects(tm) posting the usual arguments, again.
Heck, I'm tempted to chime in again too. We seem to have the Standard
Debate(tm) on our hands anyway!

Plowed ground, folks. If you don't have anything NEW to add, don't. Just let
it slide.

Lar made a general call for forbearance on The Abortion Debate (a good call, since no one is going to be swayed one way or the other) and there have subsequently been more posts than before Lar's request.
