He's also a Christian and Republican. In fact Mr. Knowles was once the chairman of the Missouri Young Republicans. He's a good man and a true Patriot.

Now this… Ferguson Mayor James Knowles told FOX 2 anchors late on Monday night that he had repeatedly requested the National Guard Monday night… But his requests were ignored.
“I know I’ve been on the phone in contact with the County Executive’s Office. I know he has requested. I am requesting. I’ve requested the National Guard troops to come out from their command post to help restore order along the business district. We have not seen that… Those calls have gone unheeded at this point… We need to have the governor step up and give us the resources that he’s promised from the beginning. He said he would have a strong response. The resources necessary would be provided. They have not been provided so far.“

I can’t imagine anyone thinking this was going to come off peaceful.
Mayor be a white dude.
This gov is a dem, right? Guess what we’re seeing is part of the “staying on course.”
Nixon is fading fast in Missouri with duplicity and inaction. But, honestly do you think he will buck Obama and Holder??? He has had his orders for weeks.
That is what was said and furthermore, there was an almost pridefulness about the police not shooting one person tonight! They have gotten word from the top to use extreme restraint and as you can see, it ended up unleashing pure mayhem in Ferguson.
Watched the interview. Incredible. They are so proud that no shots were fired, no one hurt, all while chosing to watch their own community burn. Even had Obama audacity to say they had and were protecting local businesses while split-screen showed live the depth of their ingnorance and lies.
Unprepared, they opted to watch, maybe belatedly calling for help but offered that even 10K would not have been enough. Interesting that they noted the national guard was left protecting the police station even while apparently the business or firestation next door burned.
From Obama, Holder, Nixon, on down to these two keystone cops, this is another epic disaster for Obama.
Let’s see how he spins this tomorrow and over the coming days.
He's also a Christian and Republican. In fact Mr. Knowles was once the chairman of the Missouri Young Republicans. He's a good man and a true Patriot.
Well, of course they are.
Where else should be?
I mean, who could predict that there might be rioting and looting in Ferguson and the National Guard might need to be in Ferguson or have a rapid deployment plan to enter Ferguson at a moments notice on the night they announce the Grand Jury will no bill Officer Wilson after weeks of threats by “protesters” that all hell will break out and Ferguson will burn if Wilson is not charged with murder and arrested?/s
The decent citizens need to simply lay in wait for these vermin.
Let the police know that if they won’t do their job, someone else will.
This is total B. S.
Insurance companies should refuse to pay off on their insured’s policies and refer them to the township and the governor’s office.
If they won’t protect property from hoodlums, let them pay for the damage.
Yes, pure absurdity...
Here is a link showing when and where these protestors are planning to be next:

I'm glad to hear it, but he's the wrong color and the wrong political party to get NG help from Governor Nixon.
Thanks.
MO Governor ‘Punished’ Ferguson For Refusing to Fire Darren Wilson, Tom Jackson

I’ll side with the Ferguson police department thank you very much. (not focused on you here)
Sorry, if an officer hasn’t done anything wrong, he shouldn’t be punished.
The governor can go pound sand.
Kind of hard to go pound sand when your rear end is getting pounded by President Pantload.
Benghazi redux???????
Who told Nixon not to send the Natl Guard? Holder? Obama?
Yea, but if he was giving Ferguson a hard time on his own, he deserves to be kicked to the curb.
I don’t know that he was, but that was what I was referring to.
Other than that, I agree.
