There's an article in the August issue of Liberty magazine about a marijuana activist who has vowed to do a hunger strike, to the death if need be, if she's put in prison for having distributed magic cookies to fully informed individuals, for free.? She seems to feel confident that they'll just let her out of prison if it comes to that point, as nobody would want the image of a dead old cookie-baking lady on their record.? I don't know if she's right about that, but thought I'd pass it on. You can read the whole article for free here:

[Michael Fisher]

Fisher said he would begin watering his lawn with a garden hose at noon on Monday.? He said he will continue watering his lawn, "until they force me to stop, or until I'm finished."

"Then I'll wash my cars with the hose as well, and I'll wash my friends' cars for free.  I'll do this every week until forced to stop."
