Breaking — McCloskeys charged with felony by Kim Gardner…

[Jitss617]

I don't see how she can get a conviction. They may have been way overly paranoid but that isn't illegal.

So if someone down the street from you was killed in mob violence recently and now, you have mob violence at your door, you gonna risk this is a nice mob that tore down your gate?

Those marching to the mayor's house were clear they meant no one harm. As I noted though, you can legally stand outside your house with a gun.

Yes, but you can't threaten others with a gun who are not threatening you.

You can stand there and tell people to stay off your property.

Right, and they will just leave, right?

By the way, what they were doing on the private property anyways?

I saw people marching to the mayor's house to protest in front of his house.

The mayor lived Blocks away the other direction

That is true. However ... this ...

... is not simply standing standing there. That's 4th degree felony assault according to Missouri law.

Who exactly was assaulted?

The protesters.

You mean those thugs that broke into their property while beating drums and yelling at them?

You forgot to say they were "peaceful".

If they meant no harm, why mayor had armed police guarding the place?

I went to a protest at the local school board last month. No one did any harm nor did anyone intend on doing any harm. The board still had armed police there.

Great, these "peaceful protesters" didn't intend any harm, you say. Why is the problem if property owner show up with a gun?

No problem if they show up with a gun. The problem is when you threaten someone with a gun.

As I stated in my first post, it's over the top paranoid actions but yes you can do that to protect your property.

Unfortunately for the McCloskey's, they didn't pull guns to protect their property. Their property wasn't threatened until after they pulled their guns (at least for Mark McCloskey) and their guns were non-functional, so they weren't protecting shit with those props. Instead, they were using them to intimidate others -- a 4th degree felony assault.

I disagree.

The McCloskeys threatened the protesters first. That's why they were charged.

Fine. We'll see how this plays out.

If breaking into private property is not a threat, neither is carrying the gun.

People can't threaten others with firearms for breaking into someone else's property. Not in America, anyway.

So you're saying, in America you are allowed to break in someones property and nobody is allowed to stop you?

Why would you break into anyone's property anyways?

They are charged with a felony so the government can confiscate their firearms.

She has to prove first that they break the law.

Easy.

Care to explain what law did they break?

​

Assault in the fourth degree.

1. A person commits the offense of assault in the fourth degree if:

(3) The person purposely places another person in apprehension of immediate physical injury;

How does that NOT apply to the trespassers?

When the event happened I was loudly and roundly criticized for saying that the McCloskey's were idiots. I said that they had acted stupidly from a strategic standpoint, a tactical standpoint, and possibly a legal standpoint. Waving the bang stick around tends to get charges filed. I pointed out that in Georgia, they would have been arrested same day for Aggravated Assault.

I was told that they were heroes, and deserved our admiration. I was right about the Strategic, and right about the Tactical, and now I have been proven right by the filing of charges on the legal issue.

Now what should they have done? Gone inside and called the police, and then kept their weapons at hand INSIDE the house. If the trespassers threatening violence had tried to enter the house, then you can shoot them legally. You have a leg to stand on, you are defending yourself in your home. Self Defense comes into play, and if like me you have USCCA insurance than they'll pay for your legal defense. However, if you are out in the yard waving the bang stick around in violation of the law, even if it is a chicken shit charge, chances are that USCCA will try to weasel out of paying saying you were committing a crime.

People need to be smart when it comes to guns, and these idiots were not. Now they have the expense of a legal defense, and their ability to purchase firearms in the foreseeable future is in jeopardy. If anyone lends them or sells them a gun privately, they will be committing a federal felony. Fine if they want more legal problems.

They're alive aren't they? Their property wasn't destroyed, right? The goons entered a private area after breaking down the gate, huh?

Rethink your thinking dope

They had every fucking right....every fucking right

Their property wouldn't have been destroyed even had they not threatened anyone with lethal weapons.

Lol are you going to troll this like arbery case? Please don’t

You're always welcome to put me on ignore if you can't handle the truth.

Truth, 2 incidents on video and you deny it lol

LOLOL

You mean two cases where people are charged with felonies that you think are innocent??

LOLOLOL

So you saw people break into a property threaten the owners and brag justice was done lol your so Pathetic lol

No, I didn't see that. Neither did Mark McCloskey who said that's not what happened.

Now stop making shit up.

Have you read anything I've wrote?

Of course I did. Armed police were there in case peaceful protest turns ugly.

Now, did you read what I wrote? Property owner armed himself for the same reason.

Who in the right mind would break into private property just to "protest".

The mayor lived Blocks away the other direction

The protesters said they took the route they chose because the city had blocked streets.

People can't threaten others with firearms for breaking into someone else's property. Not in America, anyway.

So you're saying, in America you are allowed to break in someones property and nobody is allowed to stop you?

Why would you break into anyone's property anyways?

You can't threaten someone's life because their on someone else's property. If you think you can -- post the law ...

Had they not initiated the threat -- they wouldn't have been charged.
