St. Louis’ top prosecutor told The Associated Press on Monday that she is charging a white husband and wife with felony unlawful use of a weapon for displaying guns during a racial injustice protest outside their mansion. Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner announced the charges against Mark and Patricia McCloskey, who are both personal injury attorneys in their 60s. They also face a misdemeanor charge of fourth-degree assault.

Just a new front in the war against law abiding citizens against those that have been given extra-constitutional rights.

Do you think the couple who are hard core Rat supporters will learn anything from the experience?

That wasn’t a protest ... it was a mass trespassing.

All the leftists that have been pretty quiet over the years see this as a chance for them to seize power. It was Rep. Clyburn who “Told Colleagues Coronavirus Bill Is ‘Tremendous Opportunity to Restructure Things to Fit Our Vision’”

They broke down the gate and stepped into the yard.

Wow. This is crazy.

Broke down gait to enter a private community.

“...Did they point the guns at anyone?...”

From the pics I saw, it looks like they did, but they were on their own property and were getting death threats from the crowd. A Missouri state representative was actually in the crowd egging them on as well.
It’s BS and IF the cops were allowed to do the job they’re supposed to be doing, it would never have happened.

Paging AG Barr.....please pick up the civil rights courtesy phone.


Good luck with that. Barr was confirmed by the GOP Senate to protect them. There is no opposition party to the progressive-corportist Uniparty. POTUS is flying solo in the swamp.
