    Some quotes from https://www.forbes.com/sites/lisett...w-ar-15s-after-guns-were-seized/#2614040697bb

    A Missouri gun store has made one of at least 50 offers to Mark and Patricia McCloskey—the couple who went viral for pointing guns at anti-racism protesters passing by their St. Louis home—for a free AR-15 rifle after authorities seized the one they brandished during the incident, a lawyer representing the couple told Forbes Sunday.

    St. Charles-based Alien Armory Tactical wrote on its Facebook page Saturday: “To the couple that had this warrant served, please come on by our shop and we will gladly rearm you with a brand new ar15 for ( FREE )” adding, “we will gladly assist you with a replacement for you to protect your private property for FREE!”

    The gun shop also wrote that they would provide free training to the McCloskeys so “if anything were to happen you will be better prepared,” in apparent reference to criticism of how the couple handled their rifle and handgun during the incident.

    How many of those supposed fifty offers will actually pull through?

    This is great publicity for the single offer that was mentioned.

    None

    Joel Schwartz, the McCloskeys’ criminal defense lawyer, told Forbes that the gun store, “along with 50 people have contacted them and offered to replace the AR-15,” but they are “kindly refuting” the gestures.

    I hope that disgusting Marxist DA gets taken to the cleaners for this! She only accepts 23% of the cases that the police sends her, but engages in a political showcase against lawful gun owners.

    This is just one reason why Gun Control laws should be repealed. They give tyrants the means to criminalize gun owners. Violent felons total far less than 1 million out of about 325 million Americans, so these laws are mainly there to be abused by political opportunists and racists.

    Background checks yield next to nothing but many false positives due to identity theft. Crimes are committed by less than .0000001% of gun owners which makes most gun laws and the enforcement mechanisms frivolous wastes of taxpayer funds.

    Well hopefully, he was a subscriber to the "two is one, one is none" philosophy- three is one being even better.

    So how many members of the invading mob have faced charges...? :rolleyes:
