A Black Lives Matter (BLM) protester in Austin, Texas named Garrett Foster was shot after a confrontation with a driver on the road. According to reports, the driver was simply going from point A to point B when he encountered a BLM “protest” happening in the street.
The driver did not speed through the crowd of protesters, he stopped and honked his horn in an effort to pass. The protesters didn’t let up and continued to not only block the road but surround the driver attempting to get through.
According to witness statements and video, Garrett Foster pointed his gun at the driver’s car during the time the driver was stopped in the center of the street. This is where things get tricky. A couple of different stories are available online as to what happens next.
Wars and Rumors of Wars
The first story is that Garrett Foster fired his AK-47 style rifle five times into the still-unnamed driver’s car and missed every shot. Then, the driver shot his pistol three times, shooting and killing Foster.
The second story is that the driver fired first because Foster was pointing his gun at him while the other “protesters” surrounded his car. Another “protester” fired his gun at the driver’s car as it drove away. Which explains the video of five loud gunshots and then three lower-caliber gunshots. Austin Police back the second statement up themselves.
Romance Story Told To Soften The Aggressor
Mainstream media tend to believe the second story but with modifications that make Foster appear to be the victim. Stories from mainstream media outlets focus on Foster’s fiance, a quadruple-amputee black woman. And since Foster is white, the narrative painted by left-media is that he was non-violent, non-racist, and a dedicated boyfriend to his disabled black girlfriend.
In reality, Foster gave an impromptu interview a short while before the incident in question. Foster revealed an entirely different personality in that interview. He expressed that the opposing side would be too… “afraid” to come down and do anything about the so-called “protests.” Obviously, he was wrong, and he’s dead now. Unfortunately. But when you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.
