AI summary for context...
Mark and Patricia McCloskey, a St. Louis couple, gained national attention in June 2020 when they pointed a rifle and a handgun at Black Lives Matter protesters walking past their home on a private street. The incident occurred as demonstrators marched toward the mayor’s house following the murder of George Floyd. The McCloskeys claimed they acted out of fear, stating the protesters broke through a gate, ignored "private street" signs, and made threats against their lives and property. They described the group as a "violent mob" and said their actions were in self-defense. However, special prosecutor Richard Callahan later stated the protest was peaceful, with no evidence that demonstrators were armed or aware they were on private property. St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner charged the couple with unlawful use of a weapon in a threatening manner, calling it an intimidation of peaceful protest. In 2021, they pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges—Mark to fourth-degree assault, Patricia to harassment—and were fined a total of $2,750. They were also required to surrender their firearms. In August 2021, Missouri Governor Mike Parson granted them a full pardon, and a judge later expunged their criminal records. Despite the pardon, Missouri’s chief disciplinary counsel recommended suspending their law licenses due to "moral turpitude", but the McCloskeys argued the pardon erased any misconduct and submitted over 250 letters of public support in their defense. The incident drew political attention, with then-President Donald Trump retweeting the video and praising their actions. The McCloskeys became conservative figures, with Mark later running as a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate. AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts.

He did mention Norway, Sweden and Denmark in these most recent comments, although I'm sure he's mentioned others in the past. youtu.be/IdrxOhm-J5A?...

I think he might stop talking about Sweden though if he saw these statistics.
