Texas is a stand your ground state, but it looks like that doesn't apply if you defend yourself from those with a system-approved ideology!
Austin jury? If so, move for change of venue.
Thank the Supreme Court for Creating out of thin air, Qualified Immunity
Sadly, if he acted in opposition to $blm/pantyfa activities, he’ll be guilty. Derek Chauvin-— Just sayin’.
Would have never been indicted outside Austin/Harris County. Cesspool of the state.
Get that trial out of Austin.
The DOJ aka Department of Justice has morphed into the DOI aka Department of Injustice. Might as well get use to anyone defending themselves against violent criminals who end up hurt or dead being accused harming the poor perp.
There is an organization called Second Call Defense that offers a very comprehensive legal resource that protects the gunowner involved in a lawful defense of himself against this kind of crap. Their info is at https://www.secondcalldefense.org/. And no, I don’t profit from this at all but I do enjoy their coverage.
I’m trying to determine where qualified immunity fits into what happened
Here is the flaw.
He drove into the protest area armed.
He could have easily bypassed it.
This shows some degree of pre-meditation.
If he had turned around, drove the other way and then someone pulled a gun, then he would be 100% in the right.
Travis County DA should be disbarred and indicted for prosecutorial abuse.
It's been a very long time since it's had anything to do with justice. In 2023, it will be thirty years since the Clintons were in the White House.
I don’t do this often, but I call that logic BS. As a tax payer, a person can traverse any public road they want. (With due reason of course, accidents, mainteneance, yellow taped off...public safety measures and investigations). The protesters had just as much right as another to use the pathway. The thugs don’t get a pass to control parts of the city roadways.
You do not know Texas law!!!
The blm flag turns you into a super-protected individual. The government will actively prosecute anyone who offends you.
The Kasden flag, the Confederate flag, the US flag, a MAGA hat, all get you thrown in jail for breathing.
Travis County is officially a no-go zone for certain IDF groups, including mine, as the authorities have shown themselves very hostile to Jewish people who might defend themselves against likely aggression.
It’s the only location on the list in Texas.
Qualified Immunity emboldens Public Employee’s to do whatever they want without fear of recourse, regardless of it’s immorality or criminality
Did you read the article? He was a Uber driver that just dropped off a passenger and found himself in the middle of a protest where people were illegally blocking the road. His choice to be armed is a right that he has as did the person he shot. Pointing a rifle at someone is a crime and warrants the use of deadly force in self defense. This is Austin and that is the only reason he has been indicted.
