Prisoners

[Douglas Laycock]

        I'm not quite gone yet, Marie; I turn it off tonight.  I do not
think that prisoners should forfeit the free exercise of religion.  I do
think it ironic that prisoners may demand at least "some" reason for
suppressing a religious practice with a generally applicable rule, while
citizens may not demand even that.  I recognize that in application, this
difference is not likely to do the prisoners much good.

        It is also clear that Marie would have written a far better opinion
than the Ninth Circuit.
