“There was no evidence that any of them had a weapon

There was quite a bit of evidence they had weapons.

It was given to him. He lied.

Callahan is a longtime ally of former Senator Claire McCaskill (D)

To be factual, I believe the gate was broken after the first encounter.

“There was no evidence that any of them had a weapon and no one I interviewed realized they had ventured onto a private enclave,”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The crowd’s “weapon” was the fact that they were a crowd. And it’s beside the point whether or not they “realized” they had ventured onto private property. What matters is that they had ventured onto private property. This is a well deserved pardon.

The first sentence of the story tells you all you need to know about the motive of the author of the piece.

An early picture of the confrontation, shows a picture of a rioter with a long gun. Must have made the picture too wide as it was cropped.

You’d best move to a red state.... ;>)

I mean, fully RED.

And, your crime must be committed and prosecuted in a leftist jurisdiction....

(Legitimate) Crimes with arms in MO are usually quite stiffly dealt with.

Glad to see but never should have been charged.

"...pointing guns at social justice demonstrators..."

You say "social justice demonstrators", they saw a raging lunatic mob bent on destruction and bloodshed.

So there's that.

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson on Tuesday announced that he made good on his promise to pardon a couple who gained notoriety for pointing guns at social justice demonstrators as they marched past the couple’s home in a luxury St. Louis enclave last year.

Good lord the media are evil. Lying and class warfare in one sentence.

Yep.

A pardon implies they did something wrong.

This couple didn’t even start shooting.

That may or may not have justified a gubernatorial pardon.

Mark McCloskey emerged from his home with an AR-15-style rifle, and Patricia McCloskey waved a semiautomatic pistol ...

Just a note for the under-informed; if they had not 'waved' the weapons but had rather pointed them, then that could have been a felony as a direct threat. 'Showing' a weapon when threatened by a MOB (crowd) is a valid form of self-defense, especially on your own property!

Should have happened even before the Soros prosecutor went to work.
