It can take him four or five pages to get there. But he ends up on the progressive/authoritarian side of the argument probably 90% of the time.
Here, I have taken two positions.
I have opined in favor of prosecuting the "protesters" who trespassed and destroyed private property. I have also opined that the homeowners accepted the likelihood of social approbation for their actions in defending their property.
I am a loss to understand how either of those positions is either "progressive" or "authoritarian." I submit that perhaps those words do not mean what you believe them to mean.

Don't recall him pointing it at them with his finger on the trigger. I saw her waving the pistol around but did not see what you are claiming. He claims that one or more of the mob members aimed guns at them.
OK I see that now but look at my original statement again. You didn't prove anything with that pic.

You may have made one more point with regards to their defense of their property.

don’t know why he plays this role.
Because he is an intersectional marxist. He is not a "libertarian" and never has been. He thinks himself to be among the "elite" on the left because "muh austin law bona fides", but they would stand his cattle ranching podunk law shingle arse in front of the wall too. He, like many, won't realize that fact until it is way too late to change his ways and join the good guys.
I really feel sorry for him actually.

You would have to ask a Missouri attorney about the statute in that state.
Anders Walker, a constitutional law professor at St. Louis University, said Monday that it was “very dangerous” for the McCloskeys to engage with protesters by brandishing guns, but Missouri’s Castle Doctrine allows them to defend their property on Portland Place, a private street.
Here you go buddy... maybe I can help you finally make a contribution to this board... Good grief you suck...

Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the homeowners seen in the now-viral video, are being investigated by the St. Louis Police Department and the city's circuit attorney, Kimberly Garder, in the wake of Sunday night's confrontation, Gardner announced in a statement late Monday.
“I am alarmed at the events that occurred over the weekend, where peaceful protesters were met by guns and a violent assault,” Gardner said. “We must protect the right to peacefully protest, and any attempt to chill it through intimidation or threat of deadly force will not be tolerated.”
This level of stupidity should be actionable. Citizens should be able to sue for impeachment purposes, if not damages. Breaking down the gate to the property, shouting "eat the rich" does not constitute "peaceful protesters" to anyone with a functioning brain.
OTOH, if the actions of these rioters does constitute peaceful protest, then someone needs to get this bitch's address, and do a little peaceful protesting at her house.

In many states (including Texas), the THREAT of imminent bodily harm constitutes a justiciable "assault."
Per the actual statutory definition of “assault”, yes.
She added the adjective “violent” to the word which is ludicrous.

No, the dumbfrick CA is trying to get them investigated.
Kim Gardner is an incompetent boob
Her % of convictions is in the low 40's. And that's including plea deals which are counted as wins, regardless of how bad the CA plead down.
She is a perfect example of what Soros wanted when he backed all these CA/DA around the country

Destruction of personal property and trespassing is not a form of peaceful protests. Way to waste tax payer $$$ Ms Gardner.

LOL and let's think what he would do when this mob shows up at his front door? Dazzle them with his superior wit and intellect?

Dude, our local news are super liberal. Only Conservatives at the TV stations are 2-3 sports guys.
MY Father takes one of the local news guys to the woodshed over his Liberal lies. Especially when it comes to cops. I laugh when he tells me he's busy, responding to the moron via email.

I don't give a shite if those 2 gave to Trump, they are 100% Blue Dogs. They have voted Blue their whole lives.
And their statement after the event, confirms it. And they will continue voting Dems into City Government.
I think that Trump donation is their conscience, which is clouded by libtardism..

Peaceful protests are peaceful until they aren't. Trespassing into private neighborhoods is meant to intimidate private citizens, not peacefully protest anything. frick these people. When will conservative politicians grow a pair of balls.

as a gun totin' lover of 2A...i hear you and no its not ethical to do so but it is not against the law either...they would be under the same scrutiny if they didnt point it and had good trigger finger location
