Death Sucks Ass... Richards, Garner pass
Ann Richards, Former Governor of Texas and all around Kick Ass Democrat died on Wednesday. Glen Maxey posted his personal recollection over at BOR and the Star Telegram has a good obit piece.
On Tuesday, Tyrone Garner one of the plaintiff's in the landmark Lawrence v. Texas, died. He and John Lawrence, in deciding to fight the ridiculous criminal justice system and laws in Texas, helped advance the cause of human rights for gays and lesbians.
Two amazing, courageous people have passed and we at McBlogger are sad to see them go. Our thoughts and prayers are with their families.
