Here's one balloon popped in the common narrative:
Howie just played a sound bite of Mike McCloskey
giving the cross-streets of the mayor's mansion,
and pointing out that it is not inside the gated community.
You can't get there without exiting the neighborhood.
Now, it was said that the rioters were routing around
closed streets. Maybe going from one side of the
neighborhood to the other was the fastest route.
But someone has exposed that the organizers of
those rioters had stated that they were intent on mayhem.
=====
Here's yet another thing no one's mentioning yet:
The McCloskey's immediate neighbors to the north,
outside the private gated neighborhood,
directly over their north fence-wall,
is the Central Reform Congregation.
Can you imagine how much that synagogue
wants nothing to do with the horror show
unfolding in their back yard?
They could be used as a secluded point of attack
on the McCluskey's property.
They might get burned down if someone torches
the McCluskey's mansion.
They might get torched on general principle when
Antifa starts casing the neighborhood to plot revenge.
What a regrettable juxtaposition.
So a crowd BREAKS DOWN the gate (maybe it's just me , but I perceive breaking down a gate as entirely different thing than just walking thru one) - then they're on private property - and people are getting all pissed off because somebody actually had the temerity to go out and defend that private property.
The gate was initially held ajar,
undamaged, by a Soros cat-herder.
Rioters streamed through the undamaged pedestrian gate,
neither of its halves appearing secured.
(Whether they used the vehicular gate or the southern gate,
I don't know).
Some rioter in the crowd eventually wrecked the north half-gate's ornate iron work,
Because Rich People.
The way the gate was wrecked, it no longer would swing fully open.
As a matter of fact, if the homeowners
had started shooting,
many in the crowd would have acted like panicked theater-goers
who try to leave a fire the way they entered instead of using the closest exit.
And with enough of a crowd crush,
the wrecked gate would probably have impaled fleeing rioters.
But when you're inside your house - and a mob breaks thru the door - and you shoot 15 of them DEAD, well that's a horse of an entirely different color. Sure - the media is going to lie about it and talk about how "innocent protesters were shot!" - but all it takes is a little bit of truth to leak out - like maybe a picture or two of a broken down front door and bodies of rioters spread across the entry hall - and suddenly most people with a brain in their head will wonder WTF was really going on.
Just be sure you darken the signage before the MSM arrives on-scene.
You don't want to ruin the narrative that they entered uninvited.
