He will last exactly 30 seconds on the street. You can't have people follow law and order if you refuse to follow the law and order imposed by the people.

A jury found him guilty, by pardoning him you are making the claim that a trial by jury is not honored and this will cause vigilante justice.

He has state charges as well so he will go to state prison

Genpop in a Minnesota prison. That pardon will definitely be a death sentence.

Daniel Perry has been free after being convicted by a jury of peers to 25 years for murdering a protester after Texas Governor Abbott pardoned him, justice doesn't matter to them if they can score political points with their cult base.

"Perry, who is white, was working as a ride-share driver when his car approached a demonstration in Austin. Prosecutors said he could have driven away from the confrontation with Foster, a white Air Force veteran who witnesses said never raised his gun.

A jury convicted Perry of murder, but Abbott called it a case of self-defense."
