It was July 25. A peaceful protest on Congress Avenue in downtown Austin, just blocks from the state capitol. Suddenly the demonstration turned deadly.
Black Lives Matter demonstrator 28-year-old Garrett Foster was shot and killed as he is walking down the street along with other marchers.
According to police, the shooter, Daniel Perry, was driving his car, attempting to turn through the crowd of protesters when he felt threatened and fired from his vehicle.
Perry told police he shot Foster in self-defense. Perry has never been charged with a crime. Why? Because Foster came to the demonstration with a semi-automatic rifle. |

What many are missing is that there is a concerted, deadly serious movement to tear our country down and rebuild it in the Marxist image - central, collectivized power and no recognition and/or respect for fundamental, unalienable individual rights.
And that is a fact.
What do you want us to do, lie down and roll over?
Not on your life. Not on mine, either. |

They leave out that the dead liberal pointed his rifle at the person that shot him.
Someone points a gun at you that gives you the right to defend yourself.
From all accounts, the dead liberal was no loss to society. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
