Man exercising his constitutional rights is shot by another American.
Witnesses say Foster had his AK pointed down. Shooter has already been released.
Let me guess, another right wing extremist killing people at a protest.
The driver was approached by gunman and the driver quilled the situation. Good out come.
No he was trying to drag a man out of his car and was shot by a law abiding American
We need a higher body count
If you don't know the enormous responsibility of having a gun?! Don't bring one.
This article is wrong in many ways. These purposefully lying writers should be stopped. Driver was impeded from leaving the intersection, honked his horn because protesters stepped out in front of him...purposefully. Dude with an AK rifle jumps to the drivers window while ten others pound and chant on the guys car. Driver shoots rifle guy out of fear for his life, protesters the scatter, 2nd protester shoots at car leaving. Driver stops down the road and calls police.
The vid of this incident is all over social media, you cant help but find it on utoob. Search the Austin PD update on utoob...its homicide #28 even the APD Chief tells how this article is flat out lies. Why would writers lie so much...to brain wash you. What the protesters are doing is criminal. Enough innocent people have been stopped and yanked from their cars, beaten and killed.
It disgust me that these communist are linked to this blog.
235pm...its called self defense idiot, the AK protester illegally stopped a car and threatened them with a rifle. The 2A dosent allow for criminal acts stupid.
Peaceful protester carrying an AK-47
Another American exercising his, as well and he won. Next.
Texas is open carry. Why isn't the NRA stepping up to defend this guy? It's almost like the NRA is a total front.
Just the beginning. Lock and load has consequences...especially when it eventually hits the cable news.
2:35 You fool. No one has a right to intimidate anyone with a gun. Under any circumstance.
You point a gun at someone expect to fire or be killed. Exactly why police let them go.
Now, that’s not to say a back story will not be discovered. But as it stands, don’t intimidate people with an AK-47 during a riot in Texas,
You may end up dead like this dufus who during his last interview stated “people that hate us are too big of p*$$ies to do anything about it”.
I’d say he would regret those words if he wasn’t being chilled to 35°.
Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

2:35. Man exercising his constitutional rights is shot by another man exercising his constitutional rights. End of story
Meh, wasted opportunity. He could have mowed down a few and with perceived threat as a defense.
Now the media is trying to say he was just pushing his handicapped girlfriend. Wasn't doing anything. He was just minding his own business. FREAKING LIES.
Well that’s what happens when you refuse to be a victim it’s called consequences you douche bag
