Comrade Tovya said:The constitution does guarantee my rights as a native American, the rights of my African immigrant neighbors, my Mexican neighbors, and just as importantly, the 20 week unborn child that sits in my wife's womb as we speak.  That's what the consitution guarantees.. not the right for a woman to have sex, get pregnant and then abandon her responsibility to her child because it's inconvenient for her.

 

Have you read the Constitution before? If not, the 14th Amendment provides an answer to who receives constitutional rights: All persons born or naturalized in the United States. I think it is fairly clear that a fetus is neither born nor naturalized, and the SC ruled that a fetus should not receive the same constitutional rights as you and I.
