those of you who are hyped up on abortion discussion...


...check out vera drake and go and fill their boards with arguments no one cares about.
no one is listening to anyone else
so whats the point in trying to make a point when you will neither educate people or change their ideas?

I could get a record player and a generator generate the music to make you feel better

If you actually read the entire discussions, you would see comments from people on both sides of the fence saying they gained positive feedback from each other. No ne is trying to change the other's ideas, just enlightening each other to different perspectives on the argument. If you don't like the subject matter, then don't read it, plain and simple. Abortion is subject of the film, and as such, has a relevant place on these boards.

True, but that goes for anyone who is abusive, no matter what the subject matter.
