    this was private property, had it been public streets and sidewalks, been a different story, they had every right to protect their property after a break in

    Let’s just say that St. Louis is always on the top 10 list for most dangerous cities every year based on violence stats in the US. It is run by a Democrat mayor, and unsurprisingly, the other 9 cities on that list are also run by Democrats. No wonder they own guns. What does that say about Democrat-run cities?

    Missouri AG Wants To Dismiss Charges Against St. Louis Couple Who Brandished Guns On Property During Protests
    Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt pledged Monday to seek a dismissal of charges against St. Louis couple Mark and Patricia McCloskey.
    The couple faced down a group of demonstrators in late June with an AR-15 and a handgun. St. Louis circuit attorney Kim Gardner charged the pair with felony weapons charges Monday.
    “Citizens shouldn’t be targeted for exercising their #2A right to self-defense,” Schmitt tweeted Monday. “STL prosecutor Kim Gardner is engaged in political prosecution … As AG I’m entering the case seeking dismissal & [to] defend all Missourians’ right to protect their lives/property.”

    Missouri governor says he'd pardon St. Louis couple if they are charged for brandishing guns at protesters
    Missouri Gov. Mike Parson (R) suggested on Friday that he was prepared to pardon a St. Louis couple if charges were filed against them for brandishing firearms at a group of protesters outside their home.

    Speaking on "The Marc Cox Morning Show" on 97.1 FM in St. Louis, Parson was asked about an investigation circuit attorney Kim Gardner launched into Mark and Patricia McCloskey. The two were seen in widely shared footage from June pointing guns at a group of protesters who were walking down their street as part of a demonstration.

    Actually evidence goes to the Judicial Branch of gov’t. Law enforcement is part of the Executive Branch. You should have learned that in 4th grade civics.
    The Judicial Branch judges the law.
    The Executive Branch executes the law.
    The Legislative Branch creates the law.

    Please qualify your statement accusing the home owners of hatred and bigotry.

    Do you agree with further gun restrictions for private citizens given Trumps willingness abuse power?

    1) They weren't actually stopping people, people were stopping for them. I would think they need a citation for blocking a public roadway though.
    2) They don't point the firearms at people, they simply have them. Nuanced difference.

    Your application to become my disciple is rejected. You are a known disciple of Agent Orange.

    I don't want to excite you into a frenzy or even apoplexy.

    It is for your own good.

    Ok, I’m not in the habit of proofing the words of another, but since the task is too difficult for you then I will. You stated
    to my post of
    According to the St Louis Post-Dispatch there have only been 18 police involved shootings in St Louis this year. Even if all 18 were considered murder by law enforcement that would still only be 13%. A far cry from your assertion of
    And by the way, all 18 of those police involved shootings were found to be 100% justifiable.
    Here’s proof of my findings.

    Should they have waited until the mob breached the front door?
