CNN's Cuomo vs. St. Louis Home Defender: You Are The Face Of "White Resistance" To Black Lives Matter
RCP video ^ | 7-1-2020 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 07/01/2020 5:20:41 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

CNN's Chris Cuomo immediately deemed the St. Louis couple that faced off with Black Lives Matters protesters encroaching on their property as a racial incident in a gotcha-style interview with Mark McCloskey, the husband, on Tuesday's edition of his CNN program.

"How do you feel about becoming the face of political resistance to the Black Lives Matter movement?" was Cuomo's first question.

"First of all, that’s a completely ridiculous statement," McCloskey responded. "I'm not the face of anything opposing to Black Lives Matters movement. I was a person scared for my life who was protecting my wife, my home, my hearth, my livelihood. I was a victim of a mob that came through the gate. I didn't care what color they were. I didn't care what their motivation was. I was frightened. I was assaulted and I was in imminent fear that they would run me over, kill me, burn my house."

(snip)

Throughout the interview, Cuomo continually doubted McCloskey's fear that his and his wife's lives were at risk and attempted to poke holes in how much of a security threat the protesters actually posed. He told Cuomo the reason why the protesters weren't able to get the steps of his home is not because they weren't going to loot it, it is because he and his wife brandished their weapons....

Cuomo attempted to portray the mob that broke a private gate to gain entrance as peaceful demonstrators on their way to protest St. Louis mayor Lyda Krewson that happened upon McCloskey's property. McCloskey said the mayor lives more than a half a mile away and the mob was in a gated community that did not provide access to the mayor's house.

Is there any doubt Fredo is an enemy agent? Worth watching the whole clip (or read the whole transcript).

Seems to me Fredo seldom gets pushbacks like this in his career, and it showed BIGLY badly for Fredo.

The mob cannot allow people to protect their property or defend themselves. He is afraid others will start using guns to stop their thuggery.

And for the most part Republicans are cowardly appeasers of dhimmicrats.

By calling this racist, cuuuomo wants the savage mob to attack their house again. cuuuomo wants a violent confrontation, and will then blame the White couple.

I hope a savage mob of street vermin visits cuuuomo’s private home, since this is what he wishes for the White couple.

Fredo trending on Twitter:

Predictably, Chris Cuomo doesn't like when people come up to him with his family, but if you're someone like Mark McCloskey, he doesn't care about your safety. Instead, he lectures McCloskey as the one who was in the wrong, not the mob.

Thankfully, McCloskey kicked his ass. pic.twitter.com/2XjNnD0AOX— Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) July 1, 2020

Cuomo is one of the main reasons I believe it should be a FELONY for ANY Public Employee of ANY State to have anyone in their Employ or Employed on their behalf in possession of a weapon, firearm or ammunition for the purpose of protection or security.

McCloskey should have called him Fredo to his face.

Colleges are teaching this hatred of whites, proving it is institutional racism.

Harvard graduate threatens to stab anyone who says ‘All Lives Matter’ and says for black people the slogan is like ‘comparing a paper cut to a knife wound’
