"Perry said in a Facebook message “no protestors go near me or my car.” https://www.texastribune.org/2023/04/14/daniel-perry-racist-comments-texas-shooting-austin-protester/ https://www.politico.com/news/2024/05/16/abbott-pardon-man-fatally-shot-black-lives-matter-protester-00158549 https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoniopequenoiv/2024/05/16/texas-pardons-convicted-killer-of-black-lives-matter-protester/?sh=4ecb1fd12295
