Missouri Governor Speaks Up – Heading to Ferguson Missouri to Handle Crisis

While Ferguson police revved up their heavy artillery against peacefully assembled citizens, people gathered to protest against the unlawful shooting of a black teenager, something has been noticeably missing – the political leader of Missouri, Governor Jay Nixon and whether he approved of the snipers, teargas and flash grenades used against the citizens of Ferguson who were exercising their First Amendment Rights.

Well just before midnight, Governor Nixon made his presence known, tweeting that he was canceling all his appearances at the Missouri State Fair for Thursday and will be heading to St Louis with a statement to follow.

Hopefully, this would lead to a sensible solutions on how to appreciate the constitutional rights of the citizens on St Louis.
