跟他有任何生意都要小心,他起诉卖狗或卖豪车给他的人,他把法律和他的律师技能用到了极致。所以我在事发前几月在写他家豪宅的建筑文章时,创造了“麦律师”的称呼。只是文字描述他家的精美建筑,决不放他家的任何照片,就是怕他。我们Central West End有个传统,他们定期组织群众参观周围的古董房,以前的费用是$75的门票。麦师律曾经要求委员会不要用他家房子的照片,委员会用了就被他告上了法庭。
在他20岁的生日,他父母送给他的生日贺卡是这样说的,“You are now the sole & only owner of 5 acres of the Phelps County Farm. Papers to follow. This is on the river — Luck! Happy Birthday! Mom + Dad.”。他父亲做医生拥有240英亩的农场,这还只是他们财富的一部分。
Looks like you are not only illiterate in law but simply illiterate.

Did you read my comment? I paste it here again. It preempts your response.
A federal case, criminal or civil, require unanimity in returning a guilty verdict. Missouri requires unanimity in returning a guilty verdict in a criminal case, and at least 3/4 affirmative vote in a civil case. It only requires one person or a minority to clear them of any wrongdoing.
More importantly, the jury selection process would have weeded out those people prejudiced against the couple any way.

已被重罪起诉。(CNN) Patricia and Mark McCloskey are charged with unlawful use of a weapon, a class E felony, according to the complaint.
"It is illegal to wave weapons in a threatening manner at those participating in nonviolent protest, and while we are fortunate this situation did not escalate into deadly force, this type of conduct is unacceptable in St. Louis," Circuit Attorney Kimberly Gardner said in a statement.

自家地界开枪造成死伤后果,必须证明自己和家人受到直接死亡威胁,比如被持枪抢劫,才能脱罪。如果小偷见到房主转身就逃,房主背后开枪将之击毙,刑事牢狱之灾外,还会被麦律师这种讼棍民事官司告个倾家荡产,因为小偷犯罪造成的财产损失,远够不上死刑惩罚,房主更无权执法惩戒。
从报道看,游行队伍抗议的目标是公众人物市长,过程是和平的,无害通过麦律师家前的路,如果他们没有侵入其家地界, 麦律师夫妇就不是事主。至于那条私路,事主是小区,而小区的事通常是要其成员投票决定的,right of way vs. first amendment ,小区能有多少票支持与游行队伍打官司?
擅长讹钱的personal injury lawyer麦律师,枪权,产权,路权方面的法律知识,还不如印第安那州的蓝领红脖子,他们安安静静地背枪站在自家小房子门前注目游行队伍通过,既起到威慑作用,又无官司麻烦。
此案在保守红州Missouri已高度政治化,共和党从总统到议员到地方官员,都给麦律师打气,州长已表示即使定罪也会赦免他们夫妇。

Missouri State prosecutor Kim Gardner launched an investigation, saying, “we will not tolerate the use of force against those exercising their First Amendment rights.” 如果按此起诉,是重罪。 按"commits the offense of unlawful use of weapons" if "he or she knowingly exhibits, in the presence of one or more persons, any weapon readily capable of lethal use in an angry or threatening manner"起诉,也不会是轻罪。Missouri's “castle doctrine” law that justifies lethal force for those protecting their homes. 前提是必须证明游行队伍越过sidewalk,侵入他家的地界,对其生命财产发生了直接的威胁。讼棍讹钱在行,对鲁莽闯下的法盲祸显然心虚,据说已另请了两拨律师代理自己的案子。
So you mean you know the law of every state? There have been exceptions to the unanimity rule in certain states. But I don’t need to google to pretend I am a lawyer. You can certainly google all you want.
I don’t normally talk to rude people like you. Get off.

There is nothing wrong with the behavior of Mr. McCloskey. He is someone who is passionate about his career to the extent of obsession. Substituting his passion with medicine, I bet you can find obsessive people like that amongst your medicine colleagues. That is exactly the reason these people are successful.

Why don't you answer 枪迷球迷 with your legal knowledge front and center, rather than acting like a child?
You think you know more about how the law works than Mr. McCloskey?

他们赢不了吧,除非陪审团里多数是和他们一样的极端保守派,这种可能性不大。

有一次聚会,同学说这位是我先生。他是律师。这先生开口说道:You work at XYZ Corp ? You have a lot of money right? So Im suing your company. There is nothing personal between us.
Sidewalk以内才是home,如果人家没有过sidewalk 进入你家地界,你去干预就不是defense ,而是offense. 搜查令,没收案发时枪械,须法官批准, Only judges and magistrates may issue search warrants,别跟我说美国密州的检察官法官都是连老中枪迷球迷都不如的法盲。
Missouri recognizes the "castle doctrine" and allows residents to use force against intruders, without the duty to retreat, based on the notion that your home is your "castle." This legal doctrine assumes that if an invader disrupts the sanctity of your home, they intend to do you harm and therefore you should be able to repel their advances.

法盲,枪盲,讼棍这回踢到法律的钢板上,官司缠身,赔钱认罚吧。子弹上梭,手抠扳机,枪口指人,这种家伙在任何国家,军队看见立即关禁闭,靶场看到马上轰走警告不许再来,警察看到很可能一枪毙命。Missouri law says a person "commits the offense of unlawful use of weapons" if "he or she knowingly exhibits, in the presence of one or more persons, any weapon readily capable of lethal use in an angry or threatening manner."
