Mark McCloskey — gun-wielding St. Louis attorney who confronted BLM protesters outside his home — considering Senate run

Mark McCloskey — the gun-toting St. Louis personal injury attorney who, along with his wife, Patricia, famously confronted Black Lives Matter protesters outside of their home last year — is reportedly considering a run for U.S. Senate in Missouri.

"I can confirm that it's a consideration, yes," McCloskey told Politico during an interview Tuesday.

Should he choose to enter the race, McCloskey would likely face off against other well-known candidates such as former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens and state Attorney General Eric Schmitt in what is expected to be a hotly contested race to replace Republican Sen. Roy Blunt (Mo.) following his retirement.
