Judge Blackmun, in the meat of the Roe decision, admitted that if the unborn were PERSONS, that they were thereby protected by the Fourteenth Amendment.

Do you think unborn babies are PERSONS?

I don't know what that has to do with my previous posts, but I'll play along.

Yes I believe unborn babies are "persons" and I believe their life is protected by the fourteenth amendment. I don't believe the SCOTUS, if they overturn Roe, will allow states to decide whether most abortions are legal or not. I do not believe there is any way SCOTUS is going to say abortion is a "States Rights" matter, to do so would be inconsistent with too many other decisions on "fundamental rights" which they have found to be protected by the U.S. Constitution.
