Yesterday, May 16, Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued a full and complete pardon to Daniel Perry, on the recommendation of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles. 

Perry had been convicted of the murder of AK-47 armed Black Lives Matter protestor Garrett Foster during a 2020 BLM protest in Austin TX. The jury rejected Perry's claim of self-defense, and Perry was subsequently sentenced to 25 years in prison.

Although Gov. Abbott had soon after the trial promised to pardon Perry if the Board of Pardons so recommended, I'd personally expressed some skepticism that a pardon would ever actually issue--not for legal reasons, but for political reasons. 

Now that a pardon has issued, the firestorm of outrage over this case has re-ignited. Is the Governor's pardon a lawless genuflection to racist fascism, as the Progressive Left claims? 

Or is the pardon simple justice for an American serviceman who was merely exercising his Second Amend right to bear arms and his legal privilege of self-defense, and whose conviction was itself unjust? 

THERE IS ONLY ONE SELF-DEFENSE "INSURANCE" PROVIDER I TRUST!

There are lots of self-defense "insurance" companies out there. Some are hot garbage. Some have limited resources. Some are simply, in my view, untrustworthy. But there is ONE that I PERSONALLY TRUST to protect myself and my family.
