What this community is about...
This community is intended to be a place where pro-life and pro-choice people can come together and discuss real, logical, workable ways to reduce abortion, outside of the realm of making it illegal.

While I do not expect people to keep hidden their own personal biases (pro-choice or pro-life), I expect the posts to be on-topic, and not just "I am pro-choice and here's why" or "I am pro-life and here's why." You're perfectly welcome to use that as an introduction to your idea or question, but please don't make it the entire post.

Additionally, what's off-topic for this community (I thought it goes without saying, but apparently not):

- dead baby jokes
- railings against women who've had abortions
- railings against women who haven't had abortions
- nastiness in general
- "let's make abortion illegal" posts

If there are ever any problems that I haven't caught, please feel free to e-mail me. My contact info is listed in my userinfo.

Thoughts on this?

*sigh* One would hope that the community info page would be enough. It's a shame that posts like this one are necessary, but it's appreciated that you took the time to write one up.

Thanks for adding me! Reason I asked is because when I tried to join the community, it told me it was closed. I'm not sure if it was a glitch or something, or if it was closed at the time, or what.

I've only just joined so excuse me if I'm speaking out of turn. ;) I believe this community is meant to be strictly neutral in terms of the pro-choice/pro-life debate... so instead of banning only ""let's make abortion illegal" posts", shouldn't it be any argument involving the legality or illegality of abortion?

I'd say not really, because abortion is already legal, and we acknowledge that.
