But as the peaceful crowd of about 500 walked along a private, gated street, a white couple who emerged from a marble mansion had something else in mind.

Around 6 p.m. Sunday, a barefoot man in a pink collared shirt walked out from the five-story house, carrying a semiautomatic rifle as he appeared to threaten the group. A few feet away, a woman pointed a pistol at the crowd, her finger directly on the trigger.


How the incident is being reported in the liberal West Coast media

HE threatened the GROUP? haha The MSM nuts do not see the problem here. The homeowner was outnumbered, he would have been attacked and hurt if not for that gun.

When informed that they are on private property, “peaceful protesters” leave. Do you see the difference?

They were asking for the mayor to resign in front of the not-mayor’s house? After peacefully breaking and entering into the area of course.

Maybe the only reason they were “peaceful” is that there were guns trained on them.

Here is a little different take on the incident with the peaceful PROtestors. Oh and the woman does ‘OMG’ have her finger ‘directly on the trigger’.

Yes, the couple peacefully pointed guns at the peaceful protesters which is why the protesters remained peaceful.

Decent Americans stand with people who have the guts to protect their families and property from the mob. Serious people ignore the media.

The homeowners could use some training on safe handling but in the moment, I suspect they were effective in what the goal was - protecting life and property.

It’s worth noting the only reason they were outside in defense was their property’s gate had been breached and the thugs were looking for easy pickings. One thrown stone and a purposeful discharge would be in order under the laws in MO.

Good for them they exercised restraint. I’m just not sure why they didn’t choose to present from behind solid cover. Shoot and move.

More reason to not trust MSM reporting.

armed only with posters and chants

Well, maybe except for just a pallet load of bricks and a dozen pre-placed Molotov Cocktails.

Every article is about Communism, awful life under whitey, life under heteros, life as an illegal...

Then WHY do they come here? If it sucks and is unfair, per what the Dems/UN and all Liberal news outlets say it is, WHY come here?

Self defense is being treated as a Crime.

Arson, Looting and Rioting are being treated as a Civil Rights.

“...St. Louis couple point guns at peaceful crowd of protesters calling for mayor to resign...”

There is no such thing as “peaceful” on the left. Maybe the couple were just cleaning there guns outdoors.

Peaceful? They broke down a gate to get into the neighborhood.

The real matter the MSM is worried about here is not violation of assault rules, or violating gun safety rules, or even 2nd Amend. rights— it’s about whether whites have a right to be afraid. Only BLM gets to do that.
