If you want yet another preview of what a Harris-Biden reign of terror will look like, take a look at the McCloskey family in St. Louis. Today, they were actually indicted by a St. Louis grand jury after charges were brought against them for defending themselves and their property with legally owned guns. They defended themselves and their property from Black Lives Matter terrorists back in July, without as much as firing one shot. The Black Lives Matter terrorists broke down a gate the property and yet they remain uncharged.

A St. Louis grand jury has indicted Mark and Patricia McCloskey on two counts each: exhibiting a weapon and tampering with evidence.
The couple appeared before a judge Tuesday, who continued their hearing until Oct. 14, saying the grand jury needed more time to deliberate.
The couple’s attorney, Joel Schwartz, said he was told the grand jury reached a decision to indict his clients Tuesday afternoon. Their cases have been assigned to judges Michael Stelzer and Thomas Clark.
The next step will be arraignments, where the McCloskeys will enter a plea to the charges issued against them.
The indictment means prosecutors convinced a grand jury they have enough evidence against the McCloskeys to proceed to trial.
Gov. Mike Parson has said he would pardon the McCloskeys should they be convicted.
St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kimberly Gardner originally issued charges against them for unlawful use of a weapon – a felony.
The grand jury added the charge of tampering with evidence. Only prosecutors are allowed to present evidence to grand juries, and they are secret proceedings.
Gardner’s office has not yet responded to a request for comment, so it’s unclear what is at the center of that charge.
