Governor Nixon signs executive order directing National Guard resources to Ferguson

It only took a week of rioting and looting, but Missouri Democrat Governor Jay Nixon signs executive order directing Missouri National Guard resources to Ferguson. What a compelte and utter failure Nixon has been as Governor of Missouri. You elect Democrats in red states, this is what you get. Oh and Jay Nixon was too cowardly to appear on Fox News Sunday. He went on all the other friendly leftist biased news channels but couldn’t go on Fox. What a coward.

Gov. Jay Nixon has signed an executive order directing additional resources through the Missouri National Guard to help restore peace and order and to protect the citizens of Ferguson.

“Tonight, a day of hope, prayers, and peaceful protests was marred by the violent criminal acts of an organized and growing number of individuals, many from outside the community and state, whose actions are putting the residents and businesses of Ferguson at risk. I join the people of Ferguson, and all Missourians, in strongly condemning this criminal activity that included firing upon law enforcement officers, shooting a civilian, throwing Molotov cocktails, looting, and a coordinated attempt to block roads and overrun the Unified Command Center. These violent acts are a disservice to the family of Michael Brown and his memory, and to the people of this community who yearn for justice to be served, and to feel safe in their own homes. Given these deliberate, coordinated and intensifying violent attacks on lives and property in Ferguson, I am directing the highly capable men and women of the Missouri National Guard to assist Colonel Ron Replogle and the Unified Command in restoring peace and order to this community.”
