Don Kates has died
From his mailing list:
As you may or may not know, Don was a crucial figure in the fight for gun rights in the legislatures and courts. I had read his work but met him at the Academics for the 2nd Amend. Conference years ago. I then saw him at the American Society for Criminology Meetings. We went to dinner a few times. He was truly a great support for the RKBA and a wonderful guy. It's a real loss.

It saddens me to bear bad news, but as some of you may
already know, Don
Kates passed away on Tuesday, November 1, 2016. While Don had a long
struggle with his health issues, he bore it all with great dignity. He
was given the highest quality care and was comforted throughout by his
wife and close friends. A more formal announcement and tribute may be
planned for later, but the family wanted to inform his friends in the
Second Amendment and Academic Communities now. There will be a small
service attended by family and friends in Washington state on Saturday,
November 5, 2016. We regret the short notice at this point but plans
were in flux and just finalized late yesterday.
