He was 79. Old age kills many people without poison being involved.

I’m sure they will do a full autopsy just because of his status as a Supreme Court Justice, but I would guess that a heart attack or stroke took him, just like many others his age.

Full autopsy. . Let’s see. I doubt it.

Clever people can manipulate organic conditions

I have emphysema .... if I get too winded, I struggle to breathe

Someone could probably put me in a (seemingly) friendly headlock and I'd probably suffocate ...

We were just playing ... I'm sorry ... I didn't know

It matters little what the supposed causes at this time. What’s important is that this was an unattended death. That is highly suspicious

I'm sure they will do a full autopsy just because of his status as a Supreme Court Justice, but...

"They" did a full autopsy on Andrew Breitbart. Then the guy who did the autopsy turned up dead.

Some states require an autopsy on all unattended deaths.

That being said, and somewhat in jest, I would suggest that anyone interested in Texas politics read up on the story of Billy Sol Estes, with special attention to the agriculture agent who got wind of his scheme, but ended up dead....ruled a suicide.

One of many articles on the subject.

I'm sure they will do a full autopsy just because of his status as a Supreme Court Justice, but I would guess that a heart attack or stroke took him, just like many others his age standing in the way of Clinton and the progressives.

Heart attack. Plane wreck. Whatever it takes.

The problem is who “they” are. If bureaucrats, aren’t you a tiny bit uncomfortable?
