Still Retain Their Dignity as Free Persons

by PG

Noting that Ann Richards died today, I almost missed the article on Tyron Garner -- the less-known plaintiff in Lawrence v. Texas -- having passed as well. His death occurred on Monday and was due to meningitis.

Unrelatedly, while the Federalist Society likes to boast that it had people arguing both sides of Raich before the Supreme Court, Texans can boast that our governor's race runs the full gamut of opinion on marijuana's legality: Grandma Strayhorn, Gov. Goodhair and Chris Bell all oppose it; Kinky wants to decriminalize but not legalize it; and inevitably, the libertarian candidate whose name I cannot recall wants to legalize it as the first step to legalizing all drugs.

The Libertarian candidate for Texas governor is James Werner.

Yours truly,
Mr. X

...instant recall...
