Scalia's right as usual. While I abhor abortion, it IS a state issue...re-read the Constitution if necessary.

Murder (aside from abortion) is a state crime. Why should abortion be any different?

I do not believe that states can legalize abortion. The constitutional guarantees of the 14th amendment apply to all persons. I think persons include persons who have not emerged from their mother yet. At the very least, the court needs to define person, and only if it does not include unborn people, then may states legalize abortion.
