    The constitution itself protects it. It’s called penumbral reasoning.

    The idea that we set up a limited government that could also come into people’s homes and legislate family planning decisions is absurd to the point of stupidity.

      I agree there an many unenumerated rights, but I understand the argument that there is nothing indicating that the is any more protected than bodily autonomy when it comes to drugs, or how you raise your children, etc. But, I am of the belief that drug use and abortion could definitely be considered protected rights. I just understand the perspective of those who disagree.
