St. Louis attorney Mark McCloskeysaid he and his wife had shot Black Lives Matter protesters outside their homes. He became famous for his threats. In the summer of 2020, I lost the Republican primary in Missouri on Tuesday night for the Senate.
In the hotly contested primary to replace outgoing Senator Roy Brandt, McCloskey won just 3% of the vote, trailing winner Eric Schmitt He finished fifth behind three other contenders.
"One thing is certain:MAGA, America First, a strong border, and a true American patriot in this race for law and order. That's me," McCloskey said in a campaign video taped the day before that received less than 20,000 votes.
McCloskey and his wife Patricia McCloskey created one of his defining images of a national race justice uprising in the wake of George Floyd's murder in 2020. I was. The two were standing outside a large house in the upscale neighborhood of Portland Place. He pointed his AR-15 and pistol at a small group of marching protesters.

I had also heard that the McCloskey's neighbors in the Central West End of STLMO don't want them as neighbors, I guess that they are afraid of being shot accidently if their lawn mower should stray over the property line a tiny bit.
