Abbott grants Daniel Perry pardon in murder of Black Lives Matter protester | Republican Gov. Greg Abbott is pardoning Daniel Perry, the former Army sergeant convicted in the fatal shooting
The idea is to make it effectively legal to kill anybody deemed left-of-center

“The Board voted unanimously to recommend a full pardon and restoration of firearm rights.”
So they recommend to give him his guns back to shoot more protesters. Fucking disgusting.
Yes. For context, Texas gladly executed a guy for arson in a situation where scientific developments since his trial made it very clear that the evidence didn't really show that arson had happened in the first place
Texas has a long tradition of pardoning lynch mobs.
Before Abbot or just with Abbot? (I don’t know if Texas has term limits. I’m assuming no)
Since its inception
The prosecutors should immediately contact the DOJ and see if a federal case makes sense. Governor Murder-Pardoner can't pardon a federal conviction.
Wouldn't that be double jeopardy since he has already been tried and convicted by the court?
Ok, thanks for the clarification
I guess some lives matter more than others... To Republicans anyway.
Yes, that’s the entire point of “black lives matter”
Just a honest showing of what it means to be a Conservative Republican Christian.
Fucking atrocious.
pesky juries and DAs thinking they have legal authority!
Once again, Governor Hot Wheels and his Cavalcade of Corruption are doing what they do best: being completely and totally ignorant as to the desires of the population.
Not cool. We don’t make fun of people because they are in wheelchairs
He's a living, breathing piece of shit. A real medical marvel if you ask me. He deserves to be called every single slur in the book.
Associating that sack of shit with people who need wheelchairs is an insult to all people with a disability.
I'm sure people with disabilities aren't standing up for him.
We have free reign when the subject is a fascist piece of republican trash who pardons cold blooded murderers.
I wish the tree would have done a better job on that absolute waste of human life.
No you don’t.
By attacking his wheelchair instead of his actual policies you are saying the fact that he is handicapped is worse than his policies.
You can choose plenty of words for the cancerous anal fissure leakage of a person, but don’t attack his wheelchair, because then you are attacking everyone in one.
It’s not about me, you, or him at that point.
Sounds like federal civil rights violations to me.
Who's gonna enforce it? Nothing happend last time Texas broke federal law and had a little standoff with federal immigration officers.
DOJ. There are Federal charges for this guy as well as civil suits.
Be sure to let the bOtH siDeS kids know how you feel about their bullshit when you see it.
Knowing Abbott I am not surprised.
Garbage state full of garbage people.
Not all of us condone this kind of shit.
No, just the millions that voted for him AND the millions that didn't even bother to vote.
To be fair he said it's full of garbage people, not that all of you are garbage people. If my house had 2 garbage people in it I would be tempted to take the garbage out as that's full for me.
