“There were a few people in the crowd that were armed .... And one actually had a rifle pointed right at the Mrs. McCloskey ..... There is at least one photo showing the event with an AR type rifle pointing right at that the lady’s head as she is pointing her handgun back at the person with the weapon. As usual ... The media is ignoring this fact....”

Never mind the media. Why don’t we have this photo here?

See my comment above.

Yep, minus the blimp, can’t remember what it’s called, to muffle the wind noise.

A couple of points

1. Neighborhood is gated with private armed security paid from HOA fees.
2. 100 homes in the neighborhood. 24 residences signed.
3. The protestors Broke through and destroyed the gate on Portland Place. The neighbors who signed all live on an adjacent street...Westmoreland Place.
4. Tim Noonan, leader of the group, former marine and Boeing exec.

Like I was telling another FReeper, a barber shop here got busted for selling Israeli machine guns (among other guns).

What a DISASTER it would have been for blm and antifa to attack that place.

If you’re a mobster using a barber shop as a front to sell guns and God knows what else, chances are you’re gonna use what you got if attacked.

And as we know, the one that gets caught means there’s a bunch that didn’t.

Buncha crooked wops :)

But if antifa or blm attacked the south shore, they would get massacred.

As in many other suburbs of southern states and midwestern states.

South Jersey would be in trouble.

All the civilized Italians left Staten Island to go there :)

Maybe they should move to a rural area to the east of them. He might find that being a defense attorney would sometimes be rewarding in self-defense cases.

When did they start requiring someone else’s permission to defend one’s family and property?

"did their gates get broken into?"

Bet that's a "No".

That being said, I was walking down a side street in brooklyn and there was a blm parade up the block on the main road.

Five hispanic guys on a this dark side road asked me why I wasn’t marching.

I said “it’s not my concern”

And yeah I was very nervous.

I didn’t give one of my tough FR answers :)

Even if 2 other guys had been with me I’d have felt ok.

But it was nerve wracking.

I’ve seen 4 marches. They are tense things that feel like they could explode at any minute.

I will be disappointed if Gov Parson hangs them out to dry, considering they made efforts to get private security and could not.
But politicians are still cowered by Ferguson.

[[dozens of neighbors sign a letter condeming [sic] their actions.]]

dozens of Pansies in the neighborhood who ignorantly think that big government will always protect everyone, sign a letter condeming [sic] their actions.

There, fixed it

[[OK, if the demonstrators come back, and start ransacking the houses or demanding money, what are these neighbors to do?]]

Change their Depends frequently of course

WTF. They broke their metal gate in and broke into his property. Is your yard not part of your Private property?

The firms turned them down.
Dunno if too busy or didn’t want the controversy.

There is a reason so many nice old brick buildings have been boarded up in St. Louis. Cultural decay leads to infrastructure and housing decay.
