Take it further, I'm not talking about the right to privacy, I'm talking about the right to have an abortion. Privacy from government in my view is covered in the ability to be secure in your person from search and seizure, to make sure no one is looking your windows or listening to your conversations without a warrant, it's completely unrelated.
The only abortion argument I think that makes sense is at what point do the cells and blood become a human being.
