On Friday night St. Louis Police served homeowners Mark and Patricia McCloskey with a search warrant and confiscated their rifle.
The McCloskeys made national headlines when they defended their home from hundreds of BLM protesters who trespassed into their neighborhood to protest at the home of the St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson.
Following the visit to their home by St. Louis City Police local gun store Alien Armory Tactical announced they will donate a free AR15 to the McCloskeys after Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner sent police to their house to confiscate their rifle.

What do you want to bet that the ATF will soon be conducting a fine tooth comb audit of the store’s records, and that every regulatory agency in the city will be inspecting weekly looking for violations?
Does ammo come with that?
I don’t want grief - but it’s only a matter of time in this environment before it comes knocking. When that happens I’ll open some boxes that have been locked for a long time and unleash holy hell.
” But what would be even nicer? The McCloskeys donating their home to the St. Louis Chapter of Hells Angels.”
Great idea! Another option would be to rent the house to the Blackwater Group for $1 per month for use as a “training facility”.
great idea.
This will double the stores already- increasing business. Congrats, store for a righteous gesture in speaking truth to power.
Yes, Everytime there is an incident like this where guns are seized I worry that they won’t rearm soon enough and they will become victims. The media is complicit in its efforts to cause them harm when they show multiple views of their homes and give addresses and employment information.
Its just a matter of time before something bad happens to someone disarmed unjustly.
Can they come and take the new one they received?
Eff the McCloskeys. They were all for BLM as long as they were showing up at other people's houses. Even having guns at all shows what kind of hypocrites they were. They figured the alligators would eat them last and just because they were wrong is no reason to make heroes out of them.
St. Charles County is Trump land. I doubt she'd venture that way.
They have stated that they support BLM. These people are vile and support our enemies. They do not deserve our support.
“Well the Mr did go on Tucker and also Shanons show.”
On OANN a couple weeks ago, Alex Salvi showed a clip of Mr. McCloskey on (I think) CNN. The talking head asked a stupid question, and Mr. McCloskey pulled a great attitude. It wasn’t even what he said, but his body language changed to indicate the news critter was an idiot.
I’m no expert but I am a Veteran of Law Enforcement. from what I’ve discovered it came down to brandishing a weapon. I believe they’re trying to claim there was no threat against the McCloskeys.
Since this is a 2A issue, doesn’t the Federal government have authority to get involved in illegal gun confiscation? (As if Barr would do anything, anyhow.) Or is each state responsible for handling all Federal issues?
Alcee Hastings, Fla. Rep. - There ain’t no rules here, we’re trying to accomplish something. . . .All this talk about rules. . . .When the deal goes down . . . we make em up as we go along.
Laws are like rule. People like Gardner will make them up as they go along. Some will go to federal court, others wont.
If they had just declared themselves #chopStLouis would they have been able to keep their guns? asking for a friend.
The couple is rich. He should have bought 4 ARs after the one was confiscated and held a press conference with them in both hands with the wife.
This couple is going to be arrested and tried. The prosecutor said it quite clearly. (Kim Gardner) She plans to throw the innocent couple in jail for defending themselves against a threatening mob.
Perhaps her assumption that she will be alive to prosecute the couple is flawed.
