Dakota Access Pipeline Company Attacks Native American Protesters with Dogs & Pepper Spray 

That's exactly what we did to them moron... Do you even have a brain?

+Anon Anon who the fuck names their kid Anon? I can just tell you're an idiot... it's weird how you can not see somebody's face or can only hear their voice but can just tell that they're an unintelligent idiot lol why are you defending these people is the question? do you drill for oil? do you know what exactly has gone on with that land and why all these people are standing up for it and protecting it? you're absolutely Clueless and it's kinda cute

No, it's not just Native Americans claiming this land is theirs "Anon"... do you do your research at all? Do you know how much oil we have stockpiled? You think the greedy ass United States of America would let this nation run out of oil any time soon? Seriously man open your eyes and fucking get on Google for 5 minutes. Fuck pipelines... we need to conserve as much land as we can before it's all gone. You might be an old man that doesn't give a shit about the future but I'm only 24 and I refuse to sit back and let all you people turn this world into shit for my kids to see... and in the end it's all for $$$

Okay well I apologize for the name calling I'm just sick of people following what the government says all the time and not standing up for themselves. Just wait... I probably would have been on your side when I was 19 also but a lot of s*** is going to open your eyes in these next few years I assure you that. There are plenty of great alternatives to this problem but that means these companies have to pay a little bit more money and that's where the greed comes in. Nevertheless we need an alternative to our fuel situation because this oil thing isn't going to work forever... better yet another 50 years so we need to do what we can to preserve nature and life while we can. Technology has come so far! Just look at some of these electric cars they are putting down faster times in combustion engines.

***** look at that! Lol two people that were enemies 20 minutes ago are now agreeing! But you are right about electric motors being exciting. I wasn't too fond on the idea at first (just because I love cars and combustion engines) but the truth is some of these newer electric cars can outperform gasoline engines. I can tell you're a smart dude you'll do just fine. You argue better than most full ass grown adults so props.

Indeed it's just private security, this construction company is invading another basically country border. The fact the mainstream media refuses to acknowledge the problem there. As well as the treaty being broken is bullshit.

"Rent-a-Cops" operating outside the LAW, with no morals beyond what they are PAID to do.

That's why these people need to invoke their legal right to protect themselves and slay those poor beasts being manipulated by evil people.

Those fucks used their poor pets like weapons. That was a crazy situation for those dogs, they can't be blamed for biting anyone. I hope their dogs get taken away from them. They should be charged with animal cruelty and assault, probably several other things too.

Violence brings more violence. I commend the Dakota Protesters for their remarkable restraint shown in the video.

It's not me, it's my finger... I swear I didn't tell anything to it... It was just nervous because of the atmosphere...

lmfao he is soo dumb!

haha

Im glad i wasnt the only one to spot that lpl

It's totally ignored cause it's a legit protest that really matters, and it's against an actual enemy of the people. If this were at a university and the protest was over a hurtful word, it would be all over the news.

The MSM will call the protestors terrorists, and call the security guards freedom fighters.

You mean billionaire and corporate owned media.

Everybody needs to post this on every major news website in the world. This is Selma again, and if properly publicized it can lead to a change.

RU-vid is mainstream

yes

No kidding.

The protesters jumped the fence causing the violence. What the hell do they expect?

+GG SS It's their tribal lands...Duh.

+GG SS yeah, and the people who crossed the bridge in Selma were asking for it too. douche.

+

+

Agreed. You cant let a bunch of weirdo company run by superstitious fools who think they can benefit from inciting hatred against their customers and employees too trespass. That kind of bullshit must end. Everybody supports buying, selling oil and treating it carefully and not like this. This company went out, hurried so much to ruin its reputation over night, they got their wish. Now they must go. This pipeline is snake oil medicine and quackery that belongs to a ufo debunkers pipe dreams.

No thank you.

+Kenneth Lee except the people with the dogs were apparently the people who made the dogs atrack. from the looks of it, the native Americans and protesters were retaliating to the violence the company was doing.

Ikr? These dogs don't understand,only obey commands from their masters :/

It makes me sick too. Dogs against horses and horses kicking them, getting bitten, kicked, dogs forced to attack, pepper sprayed, etc not humane for any aspect, tragic!!

they look malnourished as well

agreed

Those poor horses being used and put in harms way by protesters....

I think the key is water is more important than oil. When we have the oil we aren't using it carefully. We just want more and want it cheaper.

renewables is where its at. Those multi billion dollar corporations should put their money in the research and production of renewables instead of destroying lands for profit and affecting the eco system and its people. They are still making money regardless. They are just greedy bastards.

EXACTLY! Someone here has brains.

+Anon Anon NO! NO, THAT IS NOT IT! HUMANS LIVED WITHOUT OIL, AND IT'S MORE EVIL CHILD, PLASTICS!!!!!! I HATE PLASTIC!!! BUT WHO DO YOU KNOW THAT HAS LIVED WITHOUT WATER?

+Anon Anon NO! NO, THAT IS NOT IT! HUMANS LIVED WITHOUT OIL, AND IT'S MORE EVIL CHILD, PLASTICS!!!!!! I HATE PLASTIC!!! BUT WHO DO YOU KNOW THAT HAS LIVED WITHOUT WATER?

Couldnt agree more.

Lol. Silly people think the government represents or listens to their protests and petitions. They ONLY listen to the corporations. Taxation without representation all over again folks!

You dont see anybody in that group suffering from horse bites, you fraud. And that "private land" falls under a treaty that goes all the way back to 1850.

+David Davidson hey if u trying to talk shit about natives u fucking shut up u bitch there fucking on sacred land they fucking can't kill natives there that's were all the vetions are burred and yes I'm Canadian native so shut the fuck you.

SO you are in support of the Pedo then. We hear you loud and clear, David Davidson. "Show Me Your Friends and I’ll Tell You Who You Are" is a saying that comes to mind.

Terry Martin The protesters through poop at cops. I can confirm this happened because i live in this state. It was way more violent then you think. Dont say you support it, until you were there to see it.

I know how you feel it makes me sad couse I'm Mexican and they took our land too

what a fucking liar. Fuck obama

Obama has nothing to do with it bub. This is capitalism and thus our economy thrives on it. Nice try though.

Obama could sign an executive order to ban pipelines?

+kodguerrero it'll never happen. look at when bp spilled oil in the gulf of Mexico. He did a 180 after putting a moratorium on drilling. And then did nothing except back bp

you mean corporate owners thrive on it

"Fat diabetic women". "Warriors"

I'm just pointing out the obvious. The Oka stand off had real warriors.

Walmarts turned real warriors in to fat diabetic women. Rumor?

not gonna lie he/she is right about it..in fact they were up in arms and even stood face to face with the police...

by make a stand do you mean go attack any one you don't agree with, with clubs and rocks?

by make a stand do you mean go attack any one you don't agree with, with clubs and rocks?

+Dirk Diggler You realize the oil company is tresspassing on a native american reserve, which is blatant tresspassing that the company isn't being prosecuted for?

yep.. totally agree! and let's NOT forget the RECENT earthquake that hit Oklahoma!..I stand with Lakotas!

Do they pay taxes on the land? Looked a bunch if outside agitators like black lives matter.only difference is funding is scarce unlike George Soros behind BLM.

Yes, and now the pipeline is leaking.

The native people have never put up a good fight. If they had put up a good fight, then they might have won. Instead, they lost and now gripe and complain about anything and everything.

Image crying about a land that isn’t yours 😆

@@paulkendrick4153 Mate, are you Scottish or English ancestry by any chance? If yes, I absolutely love you for your action towards these savages, they are complaining about that are not even theirs in the first place. Not many people like us have the guts to stand up for our own people but instead supporting these idiots. Absolutely unpatriotic and dumb for stopping such expensive investment made from sweat and blood.

@@gregorleroy4182 Well wouldn't you be mad too, if say the feds started too build a pipeline on your county without any notice or compensation. Oh wait nevermind, you're a fucking wanker and don't have any rights to begin with in bloody England.🤣

Yay! Kudos to them!

Why are you talking to yourself?

I was thinking the same thing, and they were riding bareback. Very moving!

Someone posted their names. But deleted the post to protect their identities. Even his or her name could get them into trouble so I'm glad it was deleted.

Thanks white man for domesticating horses and bringing them to the new world.

Trespassing. They deserved worse.

So do you

+William Tarleton hoo- raaa! semper fi, do or die!

For what exactly? Being terrible dog handlers? I agree. For protecting the privatet property obtained through government permits. Good luck winning that one.

Thanks white man for giving me those fine horses to my people. We use to drag our shit around on poles with dogs because we were not smart enough to invent the wheel. You liberals are hilarious I hope you car pooled in your oil burning combustible engine cars. 2:59 I.C.E anyone?

lmao white people didnt invent horses or dogs lmfao. Get off your high horse.

+Leslie Blanco lol

White people were the ones who domesticated horses and dogs, though.

Watch your mouth

David Davidson First of all, you need to learn how to spell, and stop with the fox 'news' talking points. The republicans appointed people to a committee that steamrolled all opposition to the pipeline, the big oil companies who grease all republican wallets, and then the republicans spoon feed you their own excrement and you devour it willingly. There is nothing communistic about reporting on facts and what is unfolding in front of a reporters own eyes. These dog handlers should be put in prison for using a deadly weapon against peaceful protestors. As for the 'they should buy the land' argument, you are obviously once again an ignorant fool, the corporations and republicans used the archaic 'imminent domain' law to just take away peoples lands, without as much as an argument. They are breaking tribal treaties that have existed for hundreds of years by just bypassing the tribal councils. Shame on you for not knowing anything about the situation, and then harassing people who actually know what is going on.

+David Davidson sioux dont get shit...other tribes do

Well, welcome to RU-vid I guess :-/

Appears to be the case

***** You find this amusing ?

+TheTigs15 I just downvoted every single video you have lmao

lil dick loser tigs

***** Always important to know for sure when you encounter a soulless imbecile.Cheers for the confirmation.

Get a clue.

Where do you see or have proof/ evidence that the government doesn't give a shit. it appears to me you're just running your mouth whatever you can say to make stick you don't know what you're talking about!

Andrew Jackson Fuck no whites didn't come here first native Americans were here we welcome whites here😡

Éli Čloud I know he sounded so dumb I wasn't sure if he was joking or not

Ben Carpenter And the people who are here NOW

And Jill Stein if im not mistaken

real scumbag u are

water is more important than oil there is solar power that can be ten times more efficient its your corporate owned government that will not change to solar power because they can not profit but you knew this im sure

Yeah private property is right. Its their private property, so how dare these people come along and think they can build a pipeline through it. Yet they still are the ones being attacked.

False fence. Sacred ground. Illegal digging.

+mustaffa1611 Many people have antisocial personality disorders mustaffa. Young people should really be offered some psychology courses in high school so they can understand this stuff, but unfortunately it's not a curricular option...at least it wasn't for me. It would make contextualizing the 'evil' that some people display much easier.

+Belle “Shaki” Reine I'm sorry. What!?!

Imagine that you are a worthless dirty degenerate that doesn't know anything besides the uneducated rhetoric people tell you about oil pipelines. And image that you have nothing better to do, no job, no school, so you spend your time doing drugs, getting drunk, and storming private land and attacking the workers, then playing the victim card when security attacks you.

in history native american is the first person the america not white man

Matt Jones i know

nerdly girl Cannonball ranch isnt tribal land! Quit lying!

Amen!!

Corporate greed... You mean the thing that creates american jobs? Corporations? Jobs? Do those two simple things not compute? You people are anarchists. How could you not expect retaliaton from security?

Holy fuck why is everything similar to nazis these days

"Everyone I don't like is Hitler- a guide to current political discussion" Written by Jason Crooked

Native Americans*

molotovs......

They had a pit bull there. Also at least one guy throwing rocks. Plus the yelling and jumping over the fence is intimidating. Dumb liberals only upset because guards were smart enough to being more dogs than these useful idiots did.

There is a huge difference between a pit and a TRAINED Belgian mal. You keep your pet away from that dog unless you want to see it slaughtered. And those dogs are just doing as their told.

+MissViiolex. I diss agree. trained or not trained pits are going to fight to the death they will lock jaw there enemy. and survive like Indians.

Actually, it was the protesters who attacked initially...

That would only escalate the situation and give the company an excuse to ask the Army to move in.

good point

+Vasili melnyk they didn't attack, they pulled down a fence, then one who was standing in front of a bulldozer was thrown to the ground and a rush of people went to his aid.

+Maurissa Pence Yes that is what i saw as well. The media seems to not want to do any investigative journalism and it misleads the country!

You are repeating the single biggest misconception of this Bakken Pipeline project. Not 1 single foot of the pipeline is being built on Native American land. The Standing Rock Sioux tribe is protesting because its "near" their land. Its not on their land.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Fort_Laramie_(1851)

They may have lost the fight, but sacred land is sacred land and a president should respect and hear the citizens of his country. This was a big, big, disdainful fuc k you to native Americans everywhere (I'm Iroquois myself). Frankly I'm ashamed i wasn't there, all I can say is I'm young and had school at the time as well to attend to. Anyway I'm a firm believer in the phrase "just because something is legal doesn't make it right". Just as well I'm not a crazy liberal and I'm all for creating jobs but this whole incident was a disgusting fiasco which conveniently happened when the president was nearing the end of his final term and had little power...

TheAsianRepublican let me rephrase that for u immgrant it's on their land

TheAsianRepublican FYI do u want to drink water or eat ur dirty money🤣

Well, they jumped the fence so I don't think you can use the word "peaceful" after that. But when is enough enough? People are defending the company saying the native americans don't own the land. I guess they are expected to just sit quietly like the rest of us, be brainwashed by tv and our sugar filled diets. Live in our blissful ignorance and wait until the poisons they are dumping into our land, air, and water gives us cancer and we slowly die.

The word peaceful does not apply here; this is a mob.

+

+Sarah Dalton I wonder if you'd feel the same way if people came into your house, destroyed it, and then used whatever they destroyed it for, to make money. That's exactly what these dirt bags are doing.

You are correct, this is a mob. It's a mob of uncaring workers armed with money, machines, mace and mutts attacking a community of peaceful protestors who are armed only with their love for our land, water and air upon which our lives depend

+Brian Von Mises lol ohh please tell me more , i do love a good idiot story ;)

both Theism and Atheism require a matter of faith as neither are falsifiable per Scientific Method/Theory...

+Tibby Ek me too

The idea that Native Americans were masters of environmental conservation is a complete myth nypost.com/2015/07/13/no-native-americans-werent-the-original-environmentalists/ (and God is also a myth)

Conservation is NOT Preservation. Neither theism nor atheism are falsifiable to Scientific Method, so either or require a matter of "Faith"... The natives didn't bring us the largest mass extinction in 65 million years... Capitalism does that...

Yay! :)

70% of earth is water. Of that 98% is salt water. 2% is fresh water. Only 1% of that is easily accessible with much being locked in glaciers and snow fields. So much of what is left is polluted so In essence, only 0.007 percent of the planet's water is available to fuel and feed its 6.8 billion people.

lol

A group of dumb thugs attacking some honest, hard working men, just trying to provide for their families. Meanwhile the thugs are trying to protect their government kickbacks and tax exemptions. Lazy, violent, pathetic losers these protesters are.

Those hardworking men are working for the wrong company.Those who produced arms for Hitler's war were also "hardworking".

Absolutely Correct! It's easier than we think to turn the country around..

Don't forget the United States exports gasoline.

+Maintenance Renegade Dying 😂😂😂 I want some of that super beer! Murica' Fuck yeah!

The natives actually do depend on oil heavily, every single one of them is a hypocrite.

Noah S. Why don't you trade places with someone who has no access to water then. You don't care about water for others, then you don't deserve to have it yourself.

Wrong. In North Dakota you can use deadly force, with no duty to retreat, if you are in your dwelling, place of work, occupied motor home or travel trailer and are reasonably fearful of death or serious bodily injury to yourself or another. These fuck sticks are lucky they're not in a morgue. Those "peaceful protesters" were jumping the fence and breaking it down to trespass onto private property and were acting aggressively.

They were not in danger. Self defense is only valid if you are fearful for you life. That was not the case here, idiot. Plus, pretty sure private entities are not allowed to use attack dogs as a weapon.

Jeremy Dawkins "Self defense is only valid if you are fearful for you life." Wrong. Varies by state and can include fearing seriously physical injury, protection of property, etc. Also who are you to say whether or not they were in danger? Did you not see the protesters throwing rocks and wielding slabs of wood? " pretty sure private entities blah blah blah." Oh you're "pretty sure?" Good thing we have a justice system to figure that shit out and not you.

What about the Tribe's property rights? Or their right to not have water supplies polluted? I doubt you even know what it means to own property kid.

Jeremy Dawkins It's not their property. They also don't own the river. Nice personal attack that has nothing to do with the topic. I'm 31 years old.

How so... Like what would they sue over. Trespassing and getting bit? Getting pepper sprayed while advancing towards the guard in an angry manner? While I am not on the side of the pipeline or anything. Dont know much about it. I do not get the impression the protestors have a strong case in the manner you insinuate.

I've been looking for a comment with some logic. Everyone saying that the "pipeline" guys were bad and evil i see it from another standpoint. The guys on the bulldozers and even the security were hired by the "bad" guys to do a job they all have families and they are there to do a job to feed their families. I do not know much about the situation there either, but i can say that going after the workers is wrong. You have a problem with it go after the people making the decisions not the guys just doing their jobs.

"They were just doing their jobs" good stuff

They weren't going after the workers. They wanted to get in the way of the bulldozers, but not to attack the workers just to shut down the bulldozing. The physical confrontations you see are the pipelines hired goons, the security guys. And this "just doing your job" excuse is bullshit. When your job is to destroy these peoples' water supply -- maybe you should use your conscience and find another job. You really want to feed your family the suffering and misery of other people?

"Just doing their jobs"???; They were hired to run bulldozers. They weren't hired to commit violence. A proper response from the workers when the protesters breached the fence, would be to stop the machines and back away. Wait for Legal Real Police to arrive. Bring on the law suits; apparently the private security company WAS hired with pre-meditated intent to commit violence, showing NO remorse for their action, and failing to provide aid to injured persons.

What could possibly be the issue..the fact pipe lines leak an pollute water? nah...couldn't possibly be it right? what about the problems it can cause in the environment.... whats so hard to understand?

its fascism nobody seems to want to admit it tho

***** ummm cause its their future ? maybe

No, it's called child endangerment!

+Sarah Dalton it's been a peaceful protest since day one. the only people that turned violent were the construction workers (beginning of the video) and the hired private security.

The protestors drove out of their way to go to the work site, tore down the fence, and charged the work crews. And, somehow you say that the security were instigating.

Don't kill the messengers. Look at where the message is coming from: the huge corporations, especially petroleum companies, the politicians, and at the base is the people, us, as we agree to use fossil fuels that are obtained at the expense of the environment and the lives of many.

Yeah, clearly.

I noticed that (emaciated shepherd) too. Makes me absolutely ill. I wish I knew who these "security" people are. The woman had no control over her dog, & the rest of them put their dogs in danger, especially around the horses. And of course allowing a dog to go after a horse or a child..........UFB.

Did you notice the man advancing on the dog and poking it in the face with a flagpole? Perhaps that's where it got its bloody nose and mouth.

agreed! I would’ve shot those dogs if they bit me on my land and the constitution would’ve backed that in self defense.

For what the pipeline is miles off of the res...

+schouvler15 Underground oil pipelines can leak, burst, poisoning the ground, think before you speak, are you aware of John McCain in Az, back room deal to sell land previously given to the NA, but they found it rich in uranium, Mc Cain profited handsomely and the Australian Copper mining company is quite happy, congress passed a bill to reclaim any fucking land they fell like claiming, bet you would have. Change of❤️if it were your property or they sucked shit out of the ground near your property , if you care to find out more see Jay Winter Nightwolf and Louis Farakan interview but you won't do it, you probably have preconceived thoughts because you have been told what to think what to listen to and you are unable to think for yourself so shut up and talk what you know!

+My Hero Ezra Pound The pompous condescending remarks are cute thanks. This isnt what youre talking about though theyre not stealing native land but purchasing it from local owners.

Ok that mean buy a shirt with sleeves, clean up your yard and don't have your hand out for free stuff. I can say that because I worked up there and saw nothing but Obamazombies up there.

As well as threatening the water supply of the tribe.

I could easily file a report on you for stealing my home. does that then give me the right to enter your home? courts have to order the construction to end until then it's business as usual. that's assuming they agree with the natives.

GibbyGamer Umm I never said they drink straight from the river. Their water source is the river.

aoe0711 Why would you even file a report that I stole your home? Huh, guess your poor. Anyways, it was the tribe's land, idk where you got the whole idea that it was the company's land first.

+Diego Gonzalez if they are not drinking directly from it or using water directly from it then what is the problem. All that shit gets removed in filtration plants anyways. And the pipeline doesn't leak like the hippies are saying it will. Just look at the Alaskan pipeline and those in Canada as an example.

What a horrible job offer to accept if I must say. These people aren't going to go to the headquarters, they're coming into their land trying to build unnecessary pipelines that are only going to pollute and contaminate the water. They did what was right, defending what's being invaded.

+Ruby Xoxo its government land, the people have no say in what gets put in there

"I was just following orderss"

They are building a pipeline not executing people. I may actually agree with you people on the issue if I studied it but attacking the common man, the workers is way over the line and makes me side with them instead.

Daniel Ramey Just because one was worse than the other does not invalidate the comparison.

the workers are the one's trespassing, and attempting to build a project which will undoubtedly, as the projects before it, poison the water supply . poisoning water supply is a terrorist act . #WaterIsLife

They had an injunction to wait until the Courts heard the appeal. But big Corps don't obey laws meant for the people. They illegally went forward with it anyway and used violence against anyone trying to stop them. Now that you know this, change your attitude.

If they are going to make pipelines, hire a company that's known for superior engineering and workmanship, not Enbridge.

+Brian Linderman You can't cut corners on that kind of thing. Waterways are highly important. Many States are running out of water as it is. Everything should be done to protect the water we have. All I'm saying, if you're not going to do something like that the right way, don't do it at all. It can be done right. Spend a bit more money on it. Have better engineering. Explain to the people, that transporting oil through your superior pipeline, is safer then the alternatives. That kind of thing takes ingenuity, time, patience, money and people that actually care about others and the world they live in. If you believe that is somehow a cost, that is too high a price to pay, to negate the potential environmental impact of doing a shitty job, then I don't know what to tell you.

Very well said. These ignorant racist FUCKS on this thread seemed to miss the fact they are all talking about WATER and the pipeline POLLUTING WATER.

+MobbDaily Murdering somebody and human conquest of land aren't a good comparison. Should the Turks give back Istanbul? Should the Ukrainians give back Ukraine? Native American tribes were just as violent and sadistic to their own neighbouring tribes and warred with them for centuries for things like land. You are so unaware of 200,000 years of human migration it's almost sad.

Sorry, you just surrendered your property.

You are so unaware of your own psychopathy that it is downright sad, how everyone can see it but you. Shrug.

He's not wrong though. Should turkey give back all of anatolia to the rightful owners? Conquest was a staple of society and they lost making their land not theirs anymore. Same reason that poland and lithuania aren't massive, and the same reason that any country exists as it is today.

terbospeed Yes, I'm a fucking psychopath because I understand that conquest is a natural trend of humanity and isn't going to end anytime soon. I ask you again, should the Turks give back Anatolia? Should the descendants of Mongols living in Eastern Europe be forced to move further East? What the fuck do you want?

Yes we are. Even if some of us are hapa, my blood, still belongs to Molokai and my fellow natives. CHEEEEEEE!

Tifanie Rene So what is your solution then?

Alternative energy. Duh?!

MAI L O V E S BB Are you serious? How does an alternative energy make plastic?

Andy Drumburg Why its not their land if you endorse their intervention then why cant i go onto the reservation and start cutting fish nets because they destroy our ecosystem?

Originally the entire land within the continental United States as well as Alaska & Hawaii belongs to the Native Americans and for many years they've had to fight for this land unfortunately.

Andy Drumburg So whats your point? So we should all renounce our land and leave? I dont get the point of noting that is unless you mean to say that land should be somehow given to the tribe. The problem with that is where does that end? So the local farmers who have had nothing to do with the natives that bought this land just lose it?!

No I'm not advocating renouncing the land and leaving because it's far too late to do something like that and even the Native Americans most of whom anyways would make similar if not the same statement that I just made. But the point is that this pipeline will destroy the environment and rob the Sioux of any rights they have left. Since the colonization of this great and massive continent, we have pushed the original inhabitants to the curve for our own foolish and selfish interests. Again I know that we can't just up and leave and give this whole continent back to the Native Americans because there's no way that something like that would or could happen, but this pipeline poses a threat to the rights of the Sioux and other Native Americans as well.

Andy Drumburg What threat does it pose? A possible contamination of the Missouri River? Theres been dozens of inspectors from the state and the army engineer crew who have approved the project with several safety measures in place. As for destroying the environment, were already sending oil by rail with is far more dangerous and impactful on the environment. I fail to see what rights of the tribes that are infringed upon with a pipeline NOT on tribal land with numerous oversights. If they can intervene on private us soil why cant i go onto tribal land and cut nets? This protest hinders on a double standard which could trigger a problematic precedent.

...and you know there was no plan how?

The worker team left without helping any protesters as was evident in the video. In their anger, they were only concerned about their loss of money (job delays), and did not show concern for injured persons. No medical team, or ambulance was evident on site.

They have no responsibility to assist moronic protesters after they've dealt with them.

+Brian Garber hopefully someone poisons your water so someone can call you moronic for bitching about it.

I see the monster clearly - if you don't see you're living dead

Looked to me like it was the monster mob harassing the workers who were trying to do their job.

Energy Transfer Partners is being allowed as a for-profit company to trump federal trust responsibilities guaranteed in the 1851 and 1868 United States treaties with the L/D/Nakota tribes, which remain the supreme law of the land as guaranteed in the US constitution. The proposed 1,172 mile long pipeline slated to carry fracked oil from the Bakken oil fields in North Dakota to Patoka, Illinois is ignoring pending legal action taken by the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and other Oceti Sakowin tribes of the Lakota/ Dakota/ Nakota Nation in an effort to lay as much pipe as possible while ignoring treaty law, the Clean Water Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the National Historic Preservation Act, and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act.

+Nina Bernel This sounds like a project that Hillary Clinton would bend over backwards for to support the pipeline and fracking companies! Jill Stein 2016 people.

Perhaps, if you consider raping these peoples land and water supply to be "just doing their job". Some of the Nazis who were in charge of the camps said the same thing at the Nuremburg trials.

Never mind, here's a site- www.gofundme.com/sacredstonecamp?CTA_view_campaign&

The native Americans already get paid from the government. It's their "inheritance"

+BEN MUFF Tell me how the government pays them

actually no they don't , they don't get nearly the amount they negotiated on and they are always getting fucked over by the government that breaks their treaties.

+Leslie Blanco what are non taxed casinos? Thank you Alex. I'll take "250+ million a year from government." for 800.

NATIVE FOR LIFE FULL BLOOD

I am not native American, but I do have a great respect for you. However, this is the companies land and they have the right to do whatever they want with it.

Let them try.

Many say to blame it on the Walmart diet.

It's not just natives that are there...all kinds of races are there.

My mother is full blood Standing Rock and she doesn't look like the stereotypical "indian" you think Natives have to look like. My mom has light skin, brown freckles when in the sun, but she doesn't sun burn easily. Yet she is 4/4ths on her tribal i.d. ....hmm ?????

You don't have to be brown to be Native. That and race is a social construct.

if you don't know that its not just native Americans amongst the protesters.
