It seems Alito and others on the court have decided that unless a common right is delineated in the Constitution, they are empowered to ignore it. Here's a few of the rights we now take for granted that will be endangered if Alito et-al.'s interpretation stands:
Birth control choices
In vitro fertilization
Stem cell research
Right to an education
Right to health care
Right to vote
Right to drive a car, buy a house or move to another state
Right to refuse medical procedures
Need I go on? There are hundreds of rights, not delineated in our Constitution that we exercise every day. These will be gone if this court strikes down the concept of privacy even though the 4th, 9th and 14th amendments clearly support the right to privacy.
In other words if this decision stands, you and I
regardless of gender, have no rights.
