    “Foster, who at the time of his death was open carrying an AK-47, legal under Texas law, was taking part in a Black Lives Matter march alongside his fiance, who he was pushing in a wheelchair. Perry who was also armed, drove his vehicle through a red light and into a group of protesters, before shooting his revolver through his car window, killing Foster.” What did I miss?

      You seem to have missed where the article doesn’t say anything about “having a staring contest with some psycho extremist and think about taking the AK off your shoulder.” Speculative bullshit like this makes it seem like you’re supporting the shooter.

        You are right, there is no way they made eye contact or he thought about reaching for the rifle when the guy started plowing through the crowd. every detail was mentioned in the article. I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry please don’t hurt me 🙏🙏🙏
