The driver's account is very close to the analysis in an Ammoland article a few days ago.

The driver is lucky this happened in Texas, self defense has been outlawed in other states.

Reginald Denny would approve this shoot.

It has now been confirmed by several witnesses that this individual with the assault rifle then began to raise the assault rifle toward Sgt. Perry.and

This language in the press release concerns me. It would be much better if they could have made an unequivocal statement that "he pointed the gun at" Sgt. Perry. Pointing a gun at someone under these conditions would constitute assault with a deadly weapon justifying deadly force in defense. If he only "began to raise a gun toward" someone it can easily be construed to mean that the gun was never actually pointed at anyone and may never have been.

Suppose you are legally protecting a group of peaceful demonstrators by holding your AK-47, pointed down and exercising proper trigger discipline, with your finger extended and off the trigger. Someone shoots you, claiming that you "began to raise the assault rifle toward" the shooter. This is how the media and left-wing prosecutors will portray it.

In my opinion, given all of the circumstances (including rioters swarming and beating on his car) it was justifiable defense, but I will not be on the Austin grand jury of hand picked Democrats that the far left-wing Austin DA will use to get an indictment or on the Austin jury of UT assistant professors and state employees that will hear the coming show trial.

I wonder how George Soros would have reacted if they had surrounded his car?
