The Fat Lady Sings – Texas Kittens Fear for their Lives

Kittens are expected to face extinction in the Lone Star State

I previously wrote about the victory in Reliable Consultants v. Earle case in Texas Dildo Law Goes Limp, and the Lone Star State’s evangelical-led push to overturn the case en banc in Texas – Still Obsessed With Dildos.

Naturally, I presumed that the State of Texas would appeal the case to the U.S. Supreme Court.

I was wrong.

The State of Texas announced yesterday that it will not be petitioning the United States Supreme Court for certiorari in Reliable Consultants, Inc. v. Earle. That landmark case struck down Texas’ “obscene devices law.” The State’s decision leaves the opinion of the Fifth Circuit, and with it the sexual privacy rights of its citizens, intact.

Texans, you are now free to start crawling out of the middle ages. You are also free to purchase sex toys and start killing kittens without worrying if some repressed homosexual in a cowboy hat will want to put you in jail for it.
