  • Summary

  • BLDM - Black Lives Don't Matter In Texas.

    Texas Governor Greg Abbott's decision to pardon Daniel Perry, who was convicted of murdering Black Lives Matter protester Garrett Foster in 2020, has sparked widespread outrage.

    The pardon has drawn sharp criticism from Foster's family and the Travis County District Attorney. Foster's common-law wife, Whitney Mitchell, condemned Abbott's decision, stating that it "desecrated the life of a murdered Texan and U.S. Air Force veteran" and sent a message that those with differing political views can be killed with impunity. Travis County District Attorney José Garza accused Abbott and the parole board of "putting their politics over justice and making a mockery of our legal system."

    Headlines read "Horrible" and "Beyond F'd Up." The decision has reignited debates over the state's controversial "stand your ground" law and the politicization of the criminal justice system.
