Yes it's their private propertyPrivate "street." That street is not that home owner's property.The protesters were not on their property.ON THEIR OWN PROPERTY? *laughs*They may have committed a 4th degree assault...Negative... They threatened lethal force. They did not USE lethal force. They were trespassing. They are allowed to threaten anything they want. Get off their property.They kind of did. Pointing a gun right at someone is application of deadly force, which is why they might be in trouble.Considering THEY DIDN'T USE LETHAL FORCE.
565.056 said:565.056 said: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;
Oh wait... Are you talking about the "protesters" ... That makes sense.

Missouri Castle Doctrine
Missouri's law is more extensive than those of other states because it allows you to use deadly force to attack an intruder to protect any private property that you own, in addition to yourself or another individual.Oct 10, 2018
Correct!!!! If there was a mob of more than 100 terrorists in front of my property shouting epithets, threatening my family including my dog, I would certainly have stood out there with a weapon. In my case it would have been a 12 gauge shotgun loaded with #4Buck. The object being to hit more than one perpetrator at a time if they attacked.

Missouri recognizes the "castle doctrine" and allows residents to use force against intruders, without the duty to retreat, based on the notion that your home is your "castle." This legal doctrine assumes that if an invader disrupts the sanctity of your home, they intend to do you harm and therefore you should be able to repel their advances.
