Governor Jay Nixon appointed a new state public safety director Wednesday, giving his administration its only black Cabinet member nearly three weeks after the shooting of a black 18-year-old by a white police officer led to violent protests in a St. Louis suburb.
The governor said former St. Louis police chief Daniel Isom II will take over as director of the Missouri Department of Public Safety on Sept. 1. He will replace Jerry Lee, who resigned after almost three years as director.
The appointment comes after Nixon faced criticism both for the lack of racial diversity among his department leaders and for the state’s response to protesters and looters following the Aug. 9 shooting of Michael Brown by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson....

There ya go... We did it!
“BLACK PRIDE” lol...
(There is no “Pride” in skin color. There is pride in achievement. Skin color does not determine the nature of a Man’s brain, heart, or character...)
I’m surprised that Nixon hasn’t erected public stocks in downtown St. Louis and had Wilson pilloried.
exactly... i have never understood it... how am i going to be proud about something determined by Providence?
If Officer Wilson had any sense, he’d be in a country with no extradition treaty with the United States, such as Croatia, Armenia or Vietnam.
I hear Croatia is nice. Beautiful seacoast.
Send him to Croatia fund? I'll contribute!
Yes, it’s always a good idea to knuckle under to Black pressure groups.
Now, where’s Nixon’s Moslem cabinet?
People in MO surely choose great “leaders”; of course they think HST was great too.
Harry S Truman or Hunter S Thompson? LOL
I think HST is great, too!! In my Mahindra, anyways. d;^)
Because he is a cracker?
All this inflamatory reporting of confrontations between black youths and authority is ruthlessly designed to keeping the black segment of Obama’s political support riled up so that any thought of instituting a richly deserved impeachment proceeding goes nowhere.
USAJ Holder’s action in Ferguson; Beside sending in 40 DoJ prosecuters which remain to be seen what they come up with. (The Washington Post sent in 4 reporters to work over officer Wilson). Holder demanded witholding the devastating release of the video showing the “victim”was a 6 foot 4 inch 295 pound Michael Brown assulting a dimunitive asian store clerk, who was being portrayed as a just turned 18 year old black”kid” innocently walking home to grandma’s house shot in the back by a white police officer, Wilson, just because Brown was black.
That video was released according to press reports by the police chief of Ferguson responding to FOIA (freedom of information act) requests. But had that video been released earlier there was a decent chance there might have not been 4 days of rioting looting, and destruction of property.
They and by they I’m mean that political party which is in name only called “democrat”. There is nothing “democratic” about them. While the riots were going on you had a democrat governor calling for a “vigorous prosecution” and his state police commander marching with radicals flashing signs. With the cops reportedly told, let them riot. As the local state democrat representative repeats the propaganda dished out by the regime.
So things got out of hand in Missouri due to black “Street Rats” doing what they normally due and some black punk gets killed by a cop, violence erupted, the “white” head of public safety supposedly didn’t do enough to curtail the violence so a new head of public safety (in this case a black man) is installed....what could go wrong? My guess things will deteriorate even faster with the new public safety administrator at the helm. I see another Detroit on the horizon.
