Actually, the justices referred to the 14th, and the 9th.  Neither of which can be construed to give a woman the right to kill her child.  Justice blackmund also stated in the decision with regard to the 14th amendment that "the unborn have never been recognized in the law as persons in the whole sense".  Had this decision been thoroughly researched as suggested by top gun, he would have realized that even at that time, unborns had beem treated in certain tort and negligence law as a person.  His reference to persons who were less than whole persons harkens back to the bad old days of Dred Scott.
