During an interview Monday on local NBC affiliate KSDK, McCloskey claimed that the protesters had broken the gate in front of Portland Place, the gated community where he resides, which prompted him and his wife to retrieve their guns while ordering the demonstrators to leave.
"It was like the storming of the Bastille," Mark said. "The gate came down, and a large crowd — a very angry, shouting, aggressive people poured through."

What a potential juror might (or might not) think isn't probable cause for charges. Good grief.
I am discussing the fact that the charges HAVE been filed and the effect that McCloskey's demonstrable lies will likely have on those ongoing criminal proceedings.
To quote another poster, "Good Grief."

I am saying that his DEFENSE to criminal charges is that he was in a reasonable fear. His stated BASIS for that defense is that the protesters were "Storming the Bastille" and destroying the pedestrian gate. The FACTS are that he had armed himself BEFORE the protesters entered thru an open and undamaged gate. The CONCLUSION is that his stated basis was a FABRICATION
Again.
You don’t logic well. You’re making leaps in conclusions that don’t exist.
Because you’re not a serious person.

I can't help but notice that none of the above has quotation marks around it

Hank literally pulled this garbage yesterday and is back to get his shite pushed in again today?
Slow day on the farm I guess...

Did he?
Because the article being quoted in this thread doesn't say that. It says part of that. The part about what prompted things isn't in quotes and since the writer took the time to put quotes around some of the statement I'm going to assume that the writer made correct use of quotation marks

An AR-15 is NOT an automatic rifle you stupid liberal frick! Get your facts right before you try to change the narrative to fit your views. Oh wait, changing the narrative regardless of facts is what the democrats do best!

quote:Even McCloskey does not claim this. The most he says is that "one (protester) standing right in front of me pulled out two pistol magazines, clicked them together and said, ‘you’re next.’" Nothing about seeing an actual handgun.
Several protesters were armed, as well.
Where have you seen anything about armed protesters? I am genuinely interested.
Now, a few dimwits have been claiming that the videocam and microphone in the following photo are a gun.
Are you maybe referencing something said by one of those dimwits? I know that YOU would never confuse AV equipment for a weapon.

Don't take LiberalHanks bait. He's desparately trying to deflect. It makes no difference how the gate was opened. It was posted private property. There could have been no fence at all, and it would still be trespassing.
A mere trespass does NOT invoke the Castle Doctrine. It is invoked by "reasonable fear." A homeowner cannot use deadly force against just any trespass. ONLY if the trespass puts them in "reasonable fear."
I am analyzing the credibility of McCloskey's claim that he was in "reasonable fear" and the effect that his lies ABOUT the gate might have upon the credibility of his overall story.
Seriously, stop with the red herrings.

He did not use deadly force.
Also, an angry mob of hundreds, trespassing on your property, shouting avowed threats promising violence, that is the very definition of reasonable fear.
But get back to your stupid "muh mccloskey tore his own gate down" theory.
fricking clown.

You just mixed questions. I'm no lawyer but I know when somebody is conflating. I can't use deadly force unless I have a reasonable fear of my life. So if he had started shooting them you would have a point
But I can definitely pull out my gun and have it ready when they protential for a bad situation arises.
You know this.

I suspect that an urban St. Louis jury pool will not include a lot of folks who share your view of the world.
