#Texas #Pardon #GregAbbott
Dont point a AK-47 if you dont want to get shot.
yes, because the dead can talk? wonder why so much american violence? this 'sgt' was delusional
❤❤❤❤
@@ZOEYANDFRIENDS673the video speaks for him. The first five shots fired are clearly from an AK-47. The following three are from a pistol.
Foster fired first.
Seems pretty simple
Lol you silly Babbitttt!!!
I notice you didn't mention the man who was shot was also armed and reportedly made threatening gestures with. his own weapon
And that the murderer was still found GUILTY.
Kinda goes with Intent. Guessing Mr. Perry wasn't just out for a stroll in the park with his loaded weapon. But it's Texas, so whatever I guess.
@loganskiwyse7823 you mean the wrongly convicted man has been freed.
By a liberal, biased, corrupt D.A. and a liberal, biased jury! Foster pointed a weapon at the wrong guy that day and his stupidity cost him his life!
There is zero evidence for this . Rittenhouse was accused of the same
Self defense is not murder.
Self defense from what? There was no threat. Nobody pointed a weapon at him. Even his peers found him guilty in court. 🤣
@makeitsimple9990 the video showed he did. So you lie
@makeitsimple9990 and he's free so 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@makeitsimple9990 the point is moot now...hes pardoned and thus not guilty of ANYTHING except your BS contempt (cause ur a dpsht)
@@Parzival555 it was proven in court he was not. Whatever video or pic you’re referring to, it shows the gun is not even fully lifted and aimed towards the driver.

You mean NBC?
@@user-do2yj5rr2k Google Daniel Perry.
What happened?
No surprise there ...they must have pretty well scrubbed cuz I have not seen a word about it
He spent over a year in prison, lost his career in the Army for clearly a self-defense situation. He needs to be paid!!

@@CurtisJeffries-cd5vu for sure
These apologists keep using the excuse of "he was at low ready", as though he wasn't just feet away, barking commands at the guy to exit his vehicle, and "low ready" isn't a fraction of a second away from aiming and 'pewing', (hence its meaning: _low _*_READY TO FIRE)_*
@@LiberPater777ive always been taught, as a gun owner and carrier, that you are legally in the clear if you dont point your gun at someone or make direct threats to them.
@gerretoutdoors3710 Which this guy did both of.
How he was charged to begin with is insane. Don’t point guns at people during a violent event and you won’t get shot
🤡
Wasn't he convicted by a jury, and juries are picked by both the defense and the prosecution? Was his defense attorney inept or something?
Following his murder conviction, messages Perry sent of him self-identifying as "a racist" and of him calling black protesters "monkeys" were revealed to the public. When Perry was interviewed by police about what happened before the shooting and how Foster held his gun, Perry said: "I believe he was going to aim it at me … I didn’t want to give him a chance to aim at me, you know." it seem he didn't point the gun at Perry. soooo
@mikeland7699Ya a guy surrounded by a mob and a man with a gun walking up to him telling him to roll his window down, what a murderer.
@mikeland7699 Wrongfully convicted.
Justice finally.
He never should have been convicted.
Perry had made numerous posts and direct messages on social media where he had expressed his desire to shoot protesters, which, along with contradictory statements to eyewitness accounts, brought into question his claim of self-defense. Following his murder conviction, messages Perry sent of him self-identifying as "a racist" and of him calling black protesters "monkeys" were revealed to the public.
Somehow, i dont believe we have all the information in this clip
You don't. The man Perry murdered was a veteran who was legally open carrying and never pointed his weapon at Perry, as Perry stated to the police "I believe he was going to aim it at me … I didn’t want to give him a chance to aim at me, you know."
His text messages showed he just wanted to shoot protestors. It was murder.
It’s NBC. Of course not.
The law & order crowd decided to let a convicted murderer walk free because their political fefes were hurt.
Who points an AK at someone and expects to NOT have the other person take extreme measures to protect themselves???
A good question but also an irrelevant one. Perry already testified that the rifle was never aimed him. He fired in fear that it would have been.

Wow, NBC News you sure know how to title a video.
He shouldn't have been locked up to begin with. Your leaving out the dude was literally pointing a gun at him.
LIES. This criminal drove his car intentionally into a crowd, trying to elicit a defensive reaction from the people who were being threatened by his deadly weapon: a motor vehicle. The murder victim was LEGALLY carrying per Texas law and merely knocked on his window -- he did not point his weapon at this murderer. How Abbot & his cronies and mouthpieces can lie and lie and lie is appalling to psychologically normal Americans. That's why a jury of his peers convicted him of murder in the first place. They saw right through all the politically-motivated LIES being told about the case.
He literally was not
So says the pink DEVILS 😂😂😂
no, he literally didn't point his gun at him. "When Perry was interviewed by police about what happened before the shooting and how Foster held his gun, Perry said: "I believe he was going to aim it at me … I didn’t want to give him a chance to aim at me, you know"

Always trying to drive that wedge between Americans.
That's... Literally all there is to it. A guy decided to do a politically charged murder, publicly announced that, then proceeded to do it, and try to use the person he murdered having a weapon (That was decidedly not aimed at him) as an attempt at arguing "Self Defense". No sane person wouldn't convict the guy of murder.
Sometimes, when the legal system is corrupt, street justice steps up...
He intentionally drove into a crowd and got wrecked. Then, decided to "stand his ground."
He was convicted by a jury of his, AND YOURS, peers.

@@marcustulliuscicero2676 Agreed 100%
The guy told someone he could shoot protesters and claim self defense before the event even happened. Perry's friend warned him of "shooting after creating an event where you have to shoot".
Which means nothing if the other guy player into it.
lol, created an "event" just by not sharing their views. unless he initially threatened with a weapon to foster the conflict he did not create the "event".
So he planned the BLM riot and put a rifle in the other guys hand too?
@@Kevin-jf5bw Driving into a crowd is pretty eventful.
The state of the mainstream news really makes me sad..
Falsely accused. Illegally charged. Unlawfully and wrongfully convicted. Sue all involved with the trial including judge and jury members.
Unfortunately a pardon doesn’t allow one to bring forth a law suit.
You kind never change been that way last 400yrs plus jim crow 😢
He wasn't falsely accused, he turned himself in and admitted that he did it. Where do you clowns come from?
@miltonelliott8506 Your kind wants revenge for something that didn't happen directly to you. You're not a victim. Grow up.
Conspiratorial nonsense. The defense lawyers are involved in jury selection. Are they woke Soro-Backed too? The JURORS heard the evidence not any of us or Abbott. There is no exonerating evidence. Just a conspiracy theory that BLM protests in 2020 were anything other that’s GRASS ROOTS civil rights protests worldwide (as well as a slogan) rather than bearing ANY resemblance to the relatively small and unaffiliated organization that started the movement. (and that Antifa is an actual organization with membership and has meeting. Not.)
He wasn't pardoned. He was absolved of all convictions to the case. A pardon would imply he actually broke the law. And defending yourself against an armed mob is not a crime.
A Texas jury picked by both the defense and the prosecution saw the facts and disagree with you.
In Texas, you need to take responsibility for a crime before the parole board will recommend a pardon. Clearly the governor did this to get around that legal requirement.
A jury, who was presented all the evidence, decided that this was not a case of self-defense.
It’s pretty clear Abbott has done this for political reasons. It’s the same reason that he ships people who are in the US legally up to cities he don’t like without any warning. His shenanigans cost the state of Texas billions of dollars in lost revenue last year. He called many special sessions of the legislature, but still hasn’t done anything about the electrical distribution system in Texas.
Just more of the same.
What a worthless thing to lie about. It was a pardon. You can download a copy of the pardon from the Texas Governor's Office.
@@SeanPat1001 I think 80% of Texans would agree to a 20% tax hike to continue funding the transportation of illegal immigrants to cities that embrace their cause and effects.
The folks he has sent out, are not here legally. You are either misinformed or you knowingly made a false statement. If a single one of them were here legally, there would be leftist lawyers suing for kidnapping and false imprisonment. Since there has not been a single case filed, obviously none were in the country legally.
If you feel sad for the people being moved out, and you feel it is wrong, then you can report to the State Capitol. They will happily send 3-4 of these people to live in your house and allow you to cover their food and medical costs.

Let’s not allow people to carry rifles of this size and caliber if it’s going to be this much of an issue. If all you have to do is claim self defense, and put enough doubt on the matter of whether the rifle was aimed or not, then let’s not have them in public or even protests ever. Keep them at home or at the range. If in public, it stays in a case.

Don't point a firearm on someone else and NOT expect consequences.
Perry told the cops that Foster never pointed the gun at him. So. He didn't "point his firearm at someone."
Yep he was pardoned. has all of his rights restored. the video speaks for him. The first five shots fired are clearly from an AK-47. The following three are from a pistol.
Foster fired first.
About time. Perry NEVER should have been put in this position in the first place.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well, he did intentionally drive a few hundred miles to get to the event, nearly run some people over to incite a confrontation so he could shoot some people and claim stand your ground. I agree with you, he should never have put himself intentionally in this position. It's a clear case of creating a confrontation, killing someone, then playing the victim. The pardon is strictly a political move by a party of insurrectionist traitors who glorify political terrorism.
He put himself in this position by committing PREMEDITATED MURDER of "a protester". He didn't care who he killed, as long as they were non-white and a "protester". Sheesh.
@@Romulan007 Care to elaborate? Because the man was put in prison for shooting someone who was already aiming a rifle at him...
Or do you feel that no one has the right to defend themselves?
@@solarchos4352 These are the same people who don't know how self-defense works and called Kyle a murderer even when the evidence was overwhelmingly on his side.
Finally, justice for Daniel Perry. Now if only we could get justice for Daniel Penny too.
In another time, we could have sat down and talked about this over coffee....Nevermind
Veteran's know how to react when threatened.
“Shooting after creating an event where you have to shoot, is not a good shoot.” - Perry’s friend Michael Holcomb, warning him two weeks before the shooting
Yup...ideally you don't put yourself in a situation where you have to go through the hassle of self defense.
You never get to walk away no matter how justified you are.
They have to hold you at least until they determine you were justified.
Unfortunately they made the wrong call and a pardon was necessary.
Anything you can do to avoid such a situation is strongly advised...except being prepared.
Always be prepared.
There is no "next". This case is closed, and he gets to return to his life. Someone FAFO'd and an injustice was corrected.
About time! He never should have been convicted to begin with.
If this happened in Illinois, he would be serving a life sentence without parole. Thank you Texas!
