Hundreds of protesters returned Friday to the home of the couple who confronted demonstrators with firearms on June 28 in St. Louis, Missouri.
“Protesters marched along the busy public boulevard called Kingshighway, which intersects with Portland Place, a private street that is the site of the Renaissance palazzo-style home of Mark McCloskey, 61, and his 63-year-old wife, Patricia,” according to Yahoo! News.

The article continued:
Chanting protesters on Friday stopped at the gate just outside the McCloskeys’ home for about 15 minutes. The gate that closes the private street to non-residents and extra metal barriers blocked the entrance to Portland Place, where the protesters had walked earlier in the week on their way to the mayor’s home nearby.
Inside the gate, more than a dozen men in plain clothes walked the grounds and peered out from a second-floor balcony of the couple’s home. One protester briefly straddled an iron gate as if he was going to jump over, but did not. No one threw anything and no one behind the gates showed aggression. One man on the McCloskeys’ balcony clapped along with the chanting protesters.
However, it was not immediately known if the McCloskey’s were at home when the march took place.
Friday night, photojournalism major Jennifer Sarti shared video footage of the protesters marching outside the Portland Place neighborhood:
“If we don’t get no justice, then they don’t get no peace,” the group chanted.
During a protest on June 28, the McCloskey’s used an AR-15 and pistol to defend their home when demonstrators allegedly broke through a gate near the house, according to Breitbart News.

Agree. There are so many and organized. Leaders need to be identified & held accountable.
“Why are these people so bent on harassing this couple?”
They can’t afford to let these people get away with defending themselves - the next ones will fire.
Maybe because they called them out on Tucker?
binary or non-binary?
It’s backfiring.
I had never owned a gun. On Thursday I purchased one of the few in stock. I fired in on Friday and Sunday. I can take it apart, clean it, and reassemble it easily. I joined the USCCA. I’m already planning my next weapon purchase.
Thank you for opening my eyes, BLM. You can kiss my ass.
Also, its fortunate that this couple is wealthy enough to hire a twelve-man security team. That must cost a mint!

I assumed that they were volunteer patriots. If I lived nearby, I’d volunteer.
Shoot a few of them and they will stop coming..
I’d get a PA system and blast the National Anthem at 120db from the porch. They’d all have to drop to one knee and couldn’t move.
“They sound like tards, Jim.”
They sound like they’re making threats.
And nothing would make the terrorists more happy than that.
It’ll be Basra, Iraq all over the country if that ever happens - God forbid.
.... This is a Security Enforced private Gated Community ...... How are this little Snots getting in????
THAT is when you need one of these. That is what they were made for. Protection from mobs.

thus the security measures take including boarding up their first floor windows.
What's the point of paying taxes to fund the police if you have to hire your own private security to protect your property, because the mayor has ordered the police not to respond to calls about terrorist threats, intimidation and harassment by Black Lives Matter? Is it even worth living in any big city with Dem mayors?
I understand these are volunteer patriots as well.....call went out on MAGA twitter and other sites.
Remember that movie “Zulu”? Where the mob of black Africans chant and pound drums until they get up the nerve to attack? This is the same thing.
So much for, “…LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS…”
Since the other citizens of that community were opposed to these two protecting their property, perhaps the protestors should go around this house and hit the other homes.
Your solution is to cower to terrorists hen they threaten your family?
