Weasels of The Week: Mark & Patricia McCloskey

A group of 500 protesters marched peacefully through a gated community in St. Louis on Sunday, their destination being the mayor's residence to ask for her resignation.

En route, they encountered a husband & wife team of personal injury lawyers, wielding guns....



Mark & Patricia McCloskey are now claiming, as Mark whined to CNN's Chris Cuomo, that they're the victims here.

No, you're not. The two 60-somethings are trying to play the victim card, and, at the same time, paint themselves as supporters of Black Lives Matter. But, trying to justify the use of weapons ends up being futile. No one is buying the McCloskeys' story, except maybe President Trump, who retweeted an account of the incident on his account, only to later remove same. The McCloskeys' own lawyer only exacerbated the situation by claiming his clients were "melanin defiicent". Oh, please, stop the pain!

Enjoy the Weasel ears, Mr. & Mrs. McCloskey. As a parting gift from CNN, I'm pretty sure Cuomo can contact his brother about hooking you up with some real personal injury attorneys. Not.
