Gun-Wielding Missouri Couple Who Attempted to Protect Home from Rioters Indicted on Two Felony Counts

What George Soros and BLM want, they get. Putting the mob "in fear of injury"? How fearful must the McCloskeys have been when seeing this mob in their front yard while American cities were burned and looted by similar mobs. TD

 Legal Insurrection

“The government chooses to persecute us for doing no more than exercising our right to defend ourselves, our home, our property and our family and now we’re getting drug here time after time after time and for what?” 

. . . "The charges filed in July say that on June 28, Mark McCloskey, 63, pointed an AR-15 rifle at protesters and Patricia McCloskey, 61, wielded a semiautomatic handgun, placing protesters in fear of injury.

"Outside the Carnahan Courthouse on Tuesday, Mark McCloskey criticized the City Counselor’s Office for opting against prosecuting protesters for trespassing in Portland Place, a private, gated street. Nine protesters were initially served police summonses, but City Counselor Michael Garvin said on Sept. 29 that trespassing charges would not be pursued.

“The government chooses to persecute us for doing no more than exercising our right to defend ourselves, our home, our property and our family and now we’re getting drug here time after time after time and for what?” Mark McCloskey said. “We didn’t fire a shot. People were violently protesting in front of our house and screaming death threats and threats of rape and threats of arson. Nobody gets charged but we get charged.” . . .

Soros is getting his money’s worth. Resist and get punished later, don’t resist and get punished immediately. “Living while White” is the new risk.

Nightmare continues after BLM crowd returns to McCloskey’s home; couple waits with armed security  . . . "Residents of Westmoreland Place released a letter this week condemning the “horrific event” and the actions of their neighbors, the McCloskeys.

“Some of us choose to speak up following the horrific event that transpired on Sunday evening near our homes. As the undersigned, we condemn the behavior of anyone who uses threats of violence, especially through the brandishing of firearms, to disrupt peaceful protest, whether it be in this neighborhood or anywhere in the United States,” the letter stated.

“As residents of Westmoreland Place,” the letter added, “we seek positive action and constructive dialogue that builds and maintains a civil and good society.”

'McCloskey shredded CNN’s Chris Cuomo for pushing “an entirely false concept” during an interview this week as the liberal media pushed the narrative demonizing the couple for protecting their home.

“ 'A guy stands in front of me, pulls out two loaded pistol magazines, snaps them in front of my face and says, ‘You’re next.’ If you were there, Chris, I think you’d feel like you had a right to defend yourself, as well,” he said." . . .
