So, a couple arms themselves, on their property, as a bi-racial crowd breaks through a gate, onto private property, and acts in an agressive, threatening manner. Perhaps, you could explain what specific behavior they engaged in that was racist? Right out of the Left Handbook for Dummies: When someone does something you disagree with, accuse them of being racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, etc. Since you were so amused by his remarks, please, provide an explanation and some proof that you are not racist.

They were warned as much, and responded with threats of violence and threats of burning down the couple's house 3. Both of them really need to take a safety course for their own sake 4. My understanding is that, because the 'protestors' were on their private property, the local law saw it as no different than if they were inside the couple's house Funny, Maybe I misread it .... I thought they were walking down the street on the way to the Mayors home. 2. What threat were they under to wave guns at people while yelling at the protesters? Had these lovely people stayed away would they have been "shouted at"? 3. I agree 100% https://www.yahoo.com/news/police-investigating-protesters-confrontation-armed-213607583.html A couple pointed guns at protesters who were on private property outside their home Sunday night, as the demonstrators marched past on their way to St. Louis mayor Lyda Krewson’s residence to demand her resignation. Police are now investigating the incident to determine whether the protesters committed trespassing and fourth-degree assault by intimidation. Mark and Patricia McCloskey stood outside their home on Portland Place, a private street, as hundreds of protesters, some of them armed, marched by and chanted. The McCloskeys had been inside their home when they heard loud activity outside and saw “a large group of subjects forcefully break an iron gate marked with ‘No Trespassing’ and ‘Private Street’ signs,” St. Louis police said. So I guess I need to ask.... Are armed protesters are ONLY allowed by the Republicans?

The gate ended up broken, but it didn't seem to start that way when they began funneling in. There isn't even street view of the neighborhood because Google wasn't allowed access either. Again, the reports are that the couple told the crowd they were trespassing and needed to leave and the crowd responded with threats of violence and arson. It was after those threats that the couple armed themselves. Since you've gone back and edited, I will add that it stops being a protest when you start breaking the law. Armed trespassing is a crime regardless of political affiliation, race, religion, or anything else. Edited July 1, 2020 by BuffaloHokie13 1 1

Why would "peaceful protesters" record their breaking and entering, destruction of property, and threats against homeowners?

Cinga Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 Since when are you only allowed to show equal force to a mob that come against you? I don't care if the mob only had fists, they had an overwhelming number compared to the couple. Let's call the guns the equalizer 2
Koko78 Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 I would hope that the woman's pistol was unloaded, the way she was pointing it at people with her finger on the trigger.
