Daily Wire ^ | July 11, 2020 | Ryan Saavedra

Law enforcement officials in St. Louis have allegedly served a warrant on the St. Louis couple who recently defended their home when a large mob of angry demonstrators allegedly trespassed onto their private property.

“5 On Your Side has learned St. Louis police officers executed a search warrant Friday evening at the home of Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the Central West end couple who confronted protesters with weapons in June,” KSDK News reported. “Sources tell 5 On Your Side police seized one of the weapons, the rifle, from the couple and they told police their attorney has the pistol seen in photos.”

“They can purchase/borrow another rifle in hours.”

He’s going to need to do a function check and zero the rifle. This will require a trip to a range.

If protesters tear up this house or worse yet, burn and loot, then these people will be owed a lot of money.
And to your point, police are alienating everybody at this point. Normal people can’t defend themselves and the criminals get to do whatever they want.

Being attacked by our legal system is dangerous. And cowers the populace.

I don’t just worry for them, but also for their poor dog.

Communists have a strange fetish for torturing and killing animals.

We don’t live in America anymore.

When Hillary Clinton was not imprisoned for her crimes should have been your first clue. When obama was put in the White House for eight years should have been your second hint.

Thought I read that they had hired armed security guards.

(Probably wouldn't have been a bad idea in the first place, if they had known what was coming. Or at least some firearm safety training training and GoPro cameras, since I thought I also read that some of the "protesters" were armed.)

The McCloskys are both personal injury lawyers. They are extremely liberal. Left is eating their own on this one.

A fairly big time Trump donor at that. I looked at the FEC database early on. There’s another guy with the same name with peanuts Dem donations, then this guy with huge Trump ones.

His large Trump donations says otherwise. Have you looked it up in the FEC database? I have.

If their home is attacked next week, and they can’t defend
themselves, these people will own St. Louis.

So if these two are harmed, or their property destroyed, by a returning mob, can the DA be held liable?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Whew, that was funny.

Sorry, not beating on you, just making the point that the whole idea of taking their weapons is to signal to the SJW's and BLM that these people are now in open season so that their property IS destroyed. And to signal to the rest of us "This is what happens when you defy your masters" (can I use that word?).

This is going to get real sporty, real quick.

St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kimberly Gardner, a Democrat, claimed that the McCloskey’s defending their private property was a “violent assault” and that authorities “will use the full power of Missouri law to hold people accountable.”

Garner needs to learn what violent assault is all about, first hand.

This couple is fortunate because they have money and are lawyers
Thw average citizen would be bankrupt, probably lose their job being painted as racists for defending themselves.

picking and choosing what laws to enforce and who will be prosecuted....

Or worse, as in this case, just making up a charge out of thin air to prosecute the couple, despite the law actually being to the contrary so as to protecting them.

As another Freeper noted, textbook anarcho-tyranny. We no longer have a government. Just roving mobs, some members of which happen to have titles like "DA".

So in StL you can’t defend your property against rioters.

“So in StL you can’t defend your property against rioters.”

That is a true statement. And the chances are it’s coming to a neighborhood near you, or your neighborhood.
