True, the embryo/fetus is not legally a person prior to birth (Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992)).A human.It was a fetus.
The children in the photo below have civil rights, a fetus doesn't. A fetus is not legally a person, the children in the photo below are.

To REPEAT...This LAW says you are so fucking wrong!
The Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-212) is a United States law which recognizes a child in utero as a legal victim, if they are injured or killed during the commission of any of over 60 listed federal crimes of violence. The law defines "child in utero" as "a member of the species Homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb".[1]
That law is clearly unconstitutional. SCOTUS has already ruled that a fetus isn't a human until it's viable.
However the law cited is Constitutional because it doesn't interfere with the woman's right to privacy to decide for herself whether to have a child or not.
That makes no sense, you are essentially arguing that a woman has a right to privately decide whether or not to kill what is otherwise defined as a human.
