Should abortion be regulated, or abolished?
in Politics
Arguments
The Supreme Court in Roe Versus Wade simply states the loss of privacy is illegal. This is the basic principle of the Court case. Privacy. How that was interpreted to pregnancy abortion as an amnesty, immunity is a lie. The loss of privacy occurs due to the fact an admission and accusation is being allowed to transpire in the same statement without judicial separation by Constitutional principle.
Female specific amputation simple states before the Supreme Court a person will not participate in that lie held by admission and accusation made at the same time

Your quote from the Constitution makes no mention of descendent including fetuses - you merely make the blind assumption that it does. If I make the blind assumption that it only refers to humans from the point of live birth then you are wrong.
Even more-so with the US Code where not only do you blindly assume fetuses = children despite it making no mention of that, but you ignore the parts of the US Code I've already pointed out to you which DO specifically clarify that "children" and "person" doesn't cover fetuses
So at this point let me be very clear to you as you seem to not understand a very basic point: There is no point in you quoting texts if they do nothing to support your argument and you just make up false claims unrelated to what they actually say.
Now with the US Code you have no standing at all because I've already provided a direct link to the text clarifying the specific definition is infants "born alive" who have had "complete expulsion or extraction from his or her mother" and "breathes or has a beating heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles". That does not include fetuses in the womb, as then have not been expelled from their mother.
With the Constitution though, you may well say "Well sure, it doesn't in any way support the false claims I made about protecting fetuses, but it doesn't specifically say it doesn't either - so aren't you wrong?" The answer is no, because the Constitution also covers how decisions are made about things it doesn't specify or nail down - to whit the powers of the legislature and the judiciary. As the judiciary have ruled, the Constitution DOES NOT provide protection to non-viable fetuses.
Moreover, even if the Constitution did literally say: "Fetuses are children and should be protected" even that wouldn't guarantee the that abortion was illegal. For instance despite people's right to free speech, the US government can restrict people's speech if there is a pressing concern because it also has to weigh up it's constitutional duty to protect the citizens and safeguard the state. This is because when both sides of an issue have rights that conflict with another, a middle ground has to be found and some rights will have to be abridged.
As women have the right to terminate their pregnancy under the Fourteenth Amendment's Due Process Clause, the privacy by the penumbras of the Bill of Rights or its penumbras and under those rights reserved to the people by the Ninth Amendment - even a clear right of protection for the fetus would not be enough to make any abortion illegal. You would merely hypocritically be demanding that the right you care about is sacrosanct, while other people's rights that you don't care about are thrown in the trash.

“The shortest distance to liberty is that death only changes the position of posterity to Posthumous.”
“We stand here righteous, so no woman dies in darkness, for freedom is the light for which many have given lives in darkness.”
Female specific amputation is not pregnancy abortion. The idea of marriage in a society has changed the common defense to the general welfare of woman as a United State. The choice withheld to the court in regard to pregnancy of woman can be described within a legal precedent and scope of Capital Punishment. Justifiable.
