Missouri's governor ordered the National Guard onto the streets of Ferguson early Monday after another night of violence following the shooting by police of an unarmed black teen. "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," Gov. Jay Nixon said in a statement. "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.”

If you would have said this in the first place you moron and not blamed it on police this probably wouldn't have happened.

Gov: “Given these deliberate, coordinated and intensifying violent attacks on lives and property in Ferguson,”

Early on he said his priorities were:

1. Safety of his police.
2. Safety of the rioters.

I must conclude that his last statement means he was not upset until the police were attacked.
