DON BURGESS, Justice,
dissenting.
I concur in all respects with the exception of that portion which upholds the validity of Tex. Health & Safety Code Ann. § 841.082(a)(9) (Vernon Supp.2003). As stated in my dissent in Beasley v. Molett, 95 S.W.3d 590 (Tex.App.-Beaumont 2002, no pet. h.), I believe this section is an unconstitutional delegation or power by the legislature and, when read in conjunction with section 841.085 of the code, creates a criminal statute that violates the void for vagueness doctrine.
