Mark McCloskey who protected his home in St Louis is running for Senate.

He was a Democrat, running in Republican primary against AG and former Governor.

I watched him on Tucker Carlson's show and Tucker said he was a Democrat and became a Republican but McCloskey corrected him and said he has always been a Republican. Snopes, which I take with a grain of salt, stated that he has given to both Democrats and Republicans locally. It further stated that he gave to Donald Trump's campaign in 2016.

But what concerns me is his history of lawsuits. He's a personal injury attorney and it seems he's prolific in filing lawsuits and if I remember correctly filing suits against gun manufacturers.

A grand jury in St. Louis on Tuesday indicted Mark and Patricia McCloskey on counts of exhibiting a weapon and tampering with evidence four months after footage circulated showing the couple pointing guns at Black Lives Matter protesters outside their home.

In my opinion Kim Gardner has indicted the proverbial "ham sandwich." She should have to try the case herself. However, would not surprise
me at all if she passes it off to one of her assistants. There was a District Attorney in Texas who kept "ham sandwiches" to a minimum. He told his assistants if you indict a ham sandwich then YOU get to try the ham sandwich--really cut down on the ham sandwich indictments in his district.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is a "ham sandwich indictment"?

The origin of the phrase is Judge Solomon Wachtler, who was later charged and convicted of crimes himself.

Solomon "Sol" Wachtler (born April 29, 1930) is an American lawyer and Republican politician from New York.[1] He was Chief Judge of the New York Court of Appeals from 1985 to 1992.[2] Wachtler's most famous quote, made shortly after his appointment as Chief Judge, was that district attorneys could get grand juries to "indict a ham sandwich."[3]

Dana Loesch was on Tucker Carlson last night https://video.foxnews.com/v/6168148681001 and discussed it. Before moving to Texas she lived right near that area. She pointed out that Missouri has a strong castle doctrine law and she has discussed it a lot on Twitter yesterday as well.

It appears that the DA is a Soros funded partisan who has refused to charge violent rioters in the past. She will try to find a way to charge this couple.
