Garrett Foster bragging on camera before his death [Austin, Texas]
July 27, 2020 | vanity

A few hours before he died of gunshot wounds, Garret foster swaggered in this 45 second video clip. When asked about the weapon he is carrying, he says it's an AK 47. He says he started carrying it when his roommate got arrest and said, "Well they won't let us protest in the street anymore." It sounds like he may be saying that if the riots are shut down, the rioters will start carrying more conspicuous weapons.

Those who have listened to the video taken at the time of the shooting say the first five shots are a substantial weapon like the one Foster is carrying, followed by 3 shots from a lighter weapon, that the driver.

A friend of mine said the news wasn't having any of it yesterday, and soon he heard an account in which Garret Foster was supposedly shot and killed while pushing his black girlfriend's wheel chair.

By the way you don’t need a concealed weapon’s permit to carry a weapon in your car in Texas.

Yes, but let some Christians gather together without their masks and see how quick the cops show up!

That’s as close to a real life “HOLD MUH BEER” as I’ve ever seen.

“By the way you don’t need a concealed weapon’s permit to carry a weapon in your car in Texas.”

I would expect you’re correct on that. At any rate, here they all were carrying legit.

The Austin population is 2.275 million. Much larger than I thought.

It is a big city!


i spent lots of time in 2019 and early 2020 on patrol with APD (related to my job, no I am not a police officer). My time was spent in what is called, Charlie Sector, east Austin.

Austin has ALL the big city problems you’d find anywhere... lots of shooting, mostly vendetta, gang, family violence and drug trade oriented. I saw the aftermath and heard several. The APD was super professional in my experience. I am under an NDA so can’t say too much....

suffice it to say, I can state that ANTIFA is very organized here, has large participation and is willing to commit acts of violence.

Have anyone in the press noted that the thug who was shot was carrying an ‘assault weapon’. I only hear that he was carrying a ‘rifle’ or ‘gun’.

“Assault weapon” = “it looks scary!”.

He was carrying an AK47.

Protesting in the STREETS is not a right-there is no right to block the streets.

just saying what his last words were...

peaceful protests are the right... as long as the traffic can move, i am all about it...

point a gun at me, and it is no longer a peaceful protest.

That’s because they know their city prosecutors won’t prosecute them. They get a place to sleep and a peanut butter sandwich and then back to rioting.

This is getting dangerous, where protesters think they can shoot at any car they want, for any reason they want.

especially dangerous for the protesers

It is nearly impossible to id a firearm by the audio collected on ordinary video.

While I've spend very little time listening to "the audio collected on ordinary video", I can assure you that what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long time in Vietnam, skills that make me able to readily distinguish between AK fire and 5.56, pistol rounds, 12 ga. , etc.

Have a nice day!
