ST. LOUIS — A man and a woman pointed guns at protesters who marched through the Central West End Sunday night to call for Mayor Lyda Krewson to resign.

Videos from the protest showed the man pointing a semi-automatic rifle and a woman pointing a pistol at the crowd marching down the street. The videos circulated widely on social media Sunday night.

The couple has been identified as Mark and Patricia McCloskey. They own a prominent St. Louis law firm named McCloskey Law.

According to Saint Louis University Lawyer John Amman, their actions could possibly be classified as assault by putting protesters in fear of their safety.






The couple’s “Midwestern palazzo” home was featured in St. Louis Magazine in August 2018 after they completed a major renovation.

In the piece, they showed off their dome gilt ceiling and curved double staircase of marble leading to the second- and third-floor landings.

“The glass in the windows” is from the second-floor reception hall at the 14th-century Palazzo Davanzati in Florence, Italy, “and the shutters, at least the ironwork, are probably original,” the couple told the magazine.

No broken windows or flames- - - - -looks good to me!

They protected themselves their home and their neighbors from a violent mob. Good for them .

Damn, before I went out and chased off the mob, I would have changed out of the pink polo shirt.

Not sure, but it appears as though the protesters are on their front lawn and driveway.

a few things I would have done differently but I can appreciate them taking the stance.

But protestors tipping over your car and beating you senseless with a skateboard isn't.


Right.

Just another tidbit proving the MSM is fully controlled by the communist Bolsheviks .

The woman with the PPK looks like she means business

No need for trigger discipline in that situation!

I'm thinking that protesters, peaceful or not, do not have the right to be on (your) private property.

In the street maybe, not in your yard.

I saw some traffic on twitter indicating that the protesters broke into a gated community where this couple lives and had no right to be anywhere near their home. Not on the sidewalk or the street or anywhere.

The lawyers home as well as St. Louis mayors home is located in a gated community... but of course the protesters broke a gate down to enter the area.

Worked like a charm, those bitchez we’re sure enough scared enough to change their original intentions, which was to scare and intimidate. Tables turned bitchez.

My initial thoughts also!

I just wonder how those two voted last election? The amount of sympathy phuggs given for their plight will be directly commensurate with “none whatsoever”, be they of the blue persuasion. . .

I don't know how MO works, but Idaho's stand your ground law allows you to use deadly force to protect your home, car, and place of business. besides protecting your life. Break through a locked gate and you could become legally shot. There have been ZERO violent protests in Idaho so far.

I like Joesy's approach.

I agree. They look like they would be all for a BLM protest were it not in their neighborhood.

Protesters are lucky in this case. Trespassing on private property. Shooting would be justified if owners were afraid.
Sooner or later it’s going to happen. Hasbeen
