If you believe that it belongs in the states and that the states should decide then the states will do what their constituents want them to do. That doesn’t mean they will be zero abortions. It is a State issue.

Many believe that. But if you take the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment, which in identical language, ban taking “life, liberty, or property without due process of law,” then I think you arguably have a prohibition on abortion.

Science and logic are demonstrating that from the moment of conception, you have a human life. If the child is alive adn of the human species, I don’t see how you can argue that it’s not a person.

And if it’s a person, then go back to the first paragraph. The Fifth and Fourteenth would apply.
