Mark now has his rifle back:
Mark posted to X: “It only took 3 lawsuits, 2 trips to the Court of Appeals and 1,847 days, but I got my AR15 back! We defended our home, were persecuted by the left, smeared by the press, and threatened with death, but we never backed down.”
He told FOX News, “That gun may have only been worth $1,500 or something, and it cost me a lot of time and a lot of effort to get it back, but you have to do that. You have to let them know that you will never back down, you’ll never give up.”
Mark expects that Patricia will be able to re-take possession of her pistol this week.

How easy it is to govern when one follows a system of consulting the will of the people and one holds as the only norm all the actions which contribute to the well being of the people.

Congrats, Mr McCloskey!
May you never have to fire your rifle in anger.
A huge monetary award for deprivation of rights should be, in all fairness, awarded – and the principle actors in this violation should serve extended jail time and loss of ability to hold office ever again.
Should, but I’m not holding my breath.
“Mark expects that Patricia will be able to re-take possession of her pistol this week.”
Wasn’t this pistol non-functioning at the time the McCloskey’s stood their ground?
And, while it was in the possession of law enforcement it was repaired and made functional, so that it could be used in the lawfare against them?
I may not be correct in my remembering and if so, I apologize.
Nice looking 686. We had a shooter at the Freeport PD range that used a 686 at the Bianci matches. He had an electric motor run the targets on a cable across the outside range when he practiced. an easy setup on the system. He reloaded his ammo and kept the powder in his reefer at home.
“If anything happens to my home while you hold the only means I have to defend myself I will hold you completely liable” should have been the first words out of his mouth. He should be suing for mental anguish for not being able to protect himself and his family as well as depreciation of his weapons.
