In Texas, individuals have the right to defend themselves from animals. Deadly force is authorized.

Prosecutors and jury said NO!

Maybe that BLM animal should have thought twice before bringing a RIFLE to a felonious CAR JACKING.

Maybe you should stop pretending to know what happened.

That's terrorism.

Police around the USA train recruits that both BLM and ANTIFA are terrorist organizations. 

You can whine and scream all you like. But what those fckers did makes Jan. 6th look like a picnic.

It isn't about protecting children, it's about protecting everyones ability to wander around armed.

You are attacking the motives because you can't argue honestly based on the facts. Obviously, having armed SRO's in schools helps deter and stop shootings or respond to them much much faster. Having hard security measures in place helps prevent guns from getting into schools. These are facts. 

To the point, you tried to argue that folks only offered thoughts and prayers, that was wrong. That folks don't want to change anything, these are changes.

No, I think doing nothing about who gets guns is something the gun crowd can't accept

We already do things about this today. We are not doing nothing. Folks support harsher punishments for wrongdoers as well. It is the left here that continues to let criminals back out on the streets with no bail policies, "equity" based justice... soft on crime mentalities.

Your federal background check

I know how our current system works, that is not what I asked you. I asked you to explain what you think a real background check is.

Not anti gun, just pro sanity. 

Your positions and arguments are all anti-gun.

You mean the law which allows the governor to pardon for ANY POLITICAL REASON?

There is no OTHER legal basis for freeing a CONVICTED murderer.

No, I am being factual. When you keep saying he drove into the crowd, it is important to point out that doesn't mean he ran into anyone physically. Even now, you say he "nearly" struck people. 

He either did or he did not. I am not aware of anyone being hit. Are you?

 

Sigh... 

Here you go again, you get to towards the end of a discussion with me, where we have said numerous things, and now you make some vague claim about dishonesty. No, that is a dishonest game you play. If I said something dishonest, point out exactly what it was. 

What exactly did Perry fantasize about?

What exactly did he research?

Lets see you actually back up this nonsense. 

LOL, now you are comparing the lawlessness of taking over the streets with running a red light? They don't make eye rolls big enough. 

Again, he did not drive into anyone. 

Which facts were fictions? Which one? Name them. Enough of your games. 

Fiction 1: Your entry into this conversation is a fiction. Your premise is that the only reason for this murder is because "Democrats cheer on the lawlessness in the streets." That is patently false. Whether anyone cheered on these protesters isn't relevant and if there was "cheering" it didn't precipitate anything.

This was a peaceful protest. Any "lawlessness" is not applicable to the crowd he encountered in the crosswalk. Perry is the one who was lawless. He ran the red light (law broken) allegedly while texting (law broken) and drove into a crowd that was literally in the crosswalk, where pedestrians have the right of way (law broken). 

It is a fact that every bit of lawlessness that precipitated this particular incident was on the part of the premeditated murderer who has now been freed by a cynical, self-interested governor looking to score cheap political points.

You claimed that the "crowd stopped him" as if they were the actors inciting the incident. Again, a fiction. The crowd simply existed in a space they were legally permitted to exist--the crosswalk--where Perry was the party taking the illegal action that precipitated the encounter. Yes, the crowd reacted to nearly being struck, but Perry was the actor that caused the encounter. 

And, finally, Perry shot a man unlawfully. The "lawlessness" in this incident is entirely on one side of the argument, and it isn't yours. Yet you spin fictions about it.  

 

Perry fantasized about killing protesters. He expressed extreme racial animus. He described, in detail, how he would conduct the shooting, and then lived out his fantasy as described. Read the already-linked trial evidence.

He debated with a friend the conditions under which one could shoot protestors and get away with it -- "a good shoot."

Then he searched (on record) for where the protests were happening and then went out of his way to take himself to Austin and to those protests.

The evidence was overwhelming. So overwhelming that a jury of 12 Texans--where gun rights and "stand your ground" protections always get the benefit of the doubt, could not muster up any reasonable doubt that Perry was guilty of murder. Because he jury got a full tour of this creep's mind: 76 pages of racist, radicalized unhinged extremism.  They got to watch him obsess over videos about killing protesters and discuss at length why it was okay.

This pardon is a shameful act. And one doesn't have to be "liberal" to recognize that. Reason Magazine: Daniel Perry's Pardon Makes a Mockery of Self-Defense
