Records expunged for St. Louis couple who waved guns at protesters | AP News

ST. LOUIS (AP) — A judge has expunged the misdemeanor convictions of a St. Louis couple who waved guns at racial injustice protesters outside their mansion in 2020. Now they want their guns back.

Attorneys Mark and Patricia McCloskey filed a request in January to have the convictions wiped away. Judge Joseph P. Whyte wrote in an order Wednesday that the purpose of an expungement is to give people who have rehabilitated themselves a second chance, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. City prosecutors and police opposed the expungements.

      Gene Simmons is a vile Zionist. He's an Israeli-American. He was born there and moved the US as a kid. I assume that Paul Stanley (the rhythm guitarist) is equally bad but he's very quiet about his beliefs - as far as I know. I think at this point any other member of the band is a salaried employee that they can shitcan at any time if they want.

        There's this old generation of aged glam rock stars, KKKiss included, who are virulently anti-trans and typically pretty queerphobic in general.

        MFers, you do realise that you built an entire career out of wearing makeup, heels, sequins, and transgressing gender norms don't you?
