In St. Louis, June 2020, Mark and Patricia McCloskey pulled their guns on a group of peaceful protestors who were passing the couple’s home on the way to the governor’s home found two people standing on their home front with guns drawn on them as if they were threatened in some manner. Ironically, the protesters cared less about who they were and what they were doing because their protest agenda had nothing to do with this couple.

This couple tried to make the protest into something that it was not by pulling their guns on innocent and peaceful protestors that comprised all ethnicity protesting injustice against all people of color. If the protestors were all white walking past their home, would they have been so hasty to grab their guns and point them at people who were not threatening, and had no guns?

The answer is obvious, “No!”

This mal-intent St. Louis couple was pardoned by Missouri governor, Mike Parson, a Republican. Mark McCloskey pleaded guilty to misdemeanor fourth-degree assault and was fined $750 and Patricia McCloskey pleaded guilty to misdemeanor harassment and was fined $2,000. Wonder how they came up with those figures? This was a drop in the bucket for this, both lawyers…
