What's with the ee cummings style?

i use all lowercase on forums and in e-mails because i like to use a smaller voice.

AG agrees with DA Reed. Read it.

I'm remembering the term "legal fiction" from law school.....the AG applies the legal reasoning that the legislature is aware of their other laws that may conflict with the new one they are passing!

Funny how the law didn't specifically mention any other illegal activities that program participants may engage in.

The AG's opinion stretches credibility.

Needle-exchange operator, DA clash
Man who provides clean needles to drug addicts backs off in face of possible prosecution

SAN ANTONIO � Neatly-dressed Bill Day, 73, doesn't look like he belongs in the spaces under the viaducts where addicts shoot drugs into their bruised arms.

But they know him, giving him a look here and a head nod there as he drives by in his van.

For many, Day was once their source for clean syringes. And Day said dispensing them was his calling from God to prevent the spread of disease.

But Bexar County District Attorney Susan Reed sees it a little differently. Backed by an opinion from the Texas attorney general, Reed says she can prosecute anyone who is in possession of drug paraphernalia, regardless of the reason the person has it.


Details.

"The governor is opposed to the needle-exchange proposal," said Perry spokeswoman Allison Castle. "We need to focus on substance abuse prevention, not providing an incentive to continue illegal drug use."

[Sound like a veto threat?] Details.
