The moment leading up to the fatal shooting of an armed Black Lives Matter protester in Texas over the weekend has been revealed in a newly surfaced photograph, hours after the suspect was released from custody having told investigators he shot the demonstrator in self-defense. Garrett Foster, 28, was shot dead in Austin on Saturday evening after he confronted the driver of a car who had driven his vehicle toward a hundred-strong crowd of protesters marching in the city center. Foster, who was carrying an AK-47, was shot three times by the driver who then fled the scene. The motorist later told police he fired his handgun at Foster after the activist pointed his assault rifle at his car.

In Texas, unlike in Afghanistan under the Kenyan, you do not have to wait to be shot at to defend yourself.
You put your wheelchaired bound fiancee in the middle of a violent riot and then tried to “protect” her? With an AR-15? By pointing at folks?
Stupid doesn’t even begin to describe it.
“Witnesses say Foster died trying to protect his wheelchair-bound fiancee after a car drove at them...”
The video does not show that
He he’d stayed home all those weeks, instead of being a dummy and protesting with Commies, he’d be alive.
He’s white, so why should it matter?
“Marchers carried signs reading ‘Justice for Garrett’”
He got justice. He pointed his AK-47 in the direction of a gun-carrying Texan and got the justice he deserved. Sorry if you can’t deal with that.
One thing for sure if youre one of these rioting / protesting kids
you should definitely not show up with a weapon
Soon as you have a weapon anybody can shoot you
Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.
Or, stupid is as stupid does.
No great loss here.
He got some frontier justice because regular law and order was absent.
The BLM protester must have come from outside of Texas. A Texan would know that pointing a firearm at a Texan will get you shot; and killed.
The article does:
“The motorist later told police he fired his handgun at Foster after the activist pointed his assault rifle at his car.”
AK-47 commie rifle, not an AR-15. Commie pointing the commie rifle is dead now. Happy ending.
AK variant. So now dead guy didn’t fire 5 rounds? One panty-fah down plenty to go.
Luckily, the guy shot was White. Now, nobody will care.
I read earlier today she is a quadruple amputee! Who would take such a handicapped person to a riot? What a cruel bastard.
Caption from one of the photos: “Shelia Foster, Garrett’s mother, said her son had previously served in the military and described him as a man committed to social justice, who had peacefully protested almost every night for the past 50 days with Mitchell”
So where did get the money to pay for his “social justice” lifestyle? His mom? Supporting a grown man? Yea, that’ll teach him self dependence and get him out of the house.
Now dead guys comment from a couple days ago - good riddance.
Witnesses say Foster died was made good trying to protect his wheelchair-bound fiancee...
Complete BS. The vehicle was stopped. The Agitators "protestors" were pounding on the vehicle as Foster approached with his rifle.
I doubt even an Austin Grand Jury will indict the driver.
Of what? Failing to bow down to BLM protestors who blocked the road, then attacked his vehicle and threatened him with a rifle?
