Stop DAPL 11/30

One of these days I'll look at an article, and I will see the people called water protectors.  That day has not arrived. Standing Rock Protester Shot in the Face With Tear Gas Canister May Go Blind Dakota Access pipeline protester: "Governor has no authority here" $1,000 fine for taking supplies to Dakota pipeline protesters  What's to Gain From Building the Dakota Access Pipeline?

Stop DAPL 11/29

This is a brief beginning.  More will be added as more news comes out in this format.  Much news already available on Facebook.  Some articles are a bit older here.  Some are no more than an attempt at scaring folks, to cause them to react to this rather than pay attention to what's going on with the pipeline.  It won't work.   Standing Rock Protester Shot in Face With Tear Gas Canister May Go Blind North Dakota officials back away from blockade plans for pipeline protesters Veterans to Serve as 'Human Shields' for Dakota Pipeline Protesters Delays in DAPL could mean Trump -- who stands to gain financially from Construction -- gets to decide Case closed, case reopened Standing Rock Pipeline Protesters Have No Intention of Leaving After Authorities Issue Ultimatum Orders could have little effect on pipeline camp North Dakota's governor has ordered an immediate evacuation of Standing Rock Custer's Ghost Rides Again Delivering supplies to p...

Stop DAPL 11/28

Semantics present for some of these article titles make me wonder whether anyone thinks these things through.  They skew the meaning of what is the real situation.  The 5th and 6th sources as well as others listed here are evident of that.   More may be added later.   Water Protectors file class action suit for retaliation and excessive force against brutal police  Orders could have little effect on pipeline protest camp BREAKING: Gov. of North Dakota Orders Mandatory Evacuation at Standing Rock Camp for INSANE Reason (skewed article) ND Governor orders evacuation of pipeline protest camp Trump's Involvement in Dakota Access Pipeline Continues to Raise Eyebrows Army Corps Clarifies Eviction Notice at Standing Rock Medical Fund for Vanessa With camp set to close, protesters resolve to fight Dakota Access Pipeline Dakota Access Pipeline Protesters Told to Leave by Dec. 5 Dakota Access pipeline protesters ordered to leave by Dec. 5  (vide...

Stop DAPL 11/27

As usual the list may be brief in the beginning but I will try to add during the day. So far it has been a quiet Sunday, news wise anyway.   The U.S. Army Cannot Evict Us From Treaty Lands Cheyenne River Sioux Reacts to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Eviction Notice: Your Letter Makes a Grave and Dangerous Mistake #NoDAPL Eviction Announced: Will You Stand With Us?  Competing groups are trying to define the Dakota Access pipeline debate.  So where does the truth lie?

No DAPL 11/26

The worldwide prayer for Standing Rock today.  My hope is you all joined in to send good thoughts, strength, and love to the water protectors on the front line who do what they do for all of us.  Obvious misunderstanding or should this be termed a refusal to look into past history that the water protectors are on their own lands.  Army Corps seems to be disrespecting that as has been said by Cheyenne River Sioux Chairman Frasier and Standing Rock Sioux Chairman Archambault.  This can be seen in many of the articles below.   Arizonans mark against Dakota Access Pipeline Army Corps of Engineers Orders Pipeline Protesters to Leave Camp The Latest: County official: Feds need to enforce Corps plan North Dakota governor: The feds made the Dakota mess, they can clean it up Shailene Woodley Breaks Down in Tears While Discussing Thanksgiving at Dakota Access Pipeline Protest: 'I'm So Sick of It' Army to Shut Down Pipeline Protesters' Campsite, Establish 'Free...

No DAPL 11/25

As is usually the case, I'll read/watch as much as I can before posting.  As I read/watch more, I'll share here.  Please keep the water protectors in your prayers.   Standing Rock Vanessa Dundon's retina severed after law enforcement shot her in the face  Medical Fund for Vanessa Army Corps will close anti-DAPL protest camp at Standing Rock by Dec. 5 US Army orders of eviction of Dakota protesters' camp, tribe says Dakota pipeline protesters build bridge in battle for Turtle Island A Dakota pipeline's last stand How Many Law Enforcement Agencies Does It Take to Subdue a Peaceful Protest Army Corps of Engineers Orders Dakota Pipeline Protesters to Abandon Camp Standing Rock chairman says Army Corps to close camp access Chairman Archambault Releases Statement on Wilanski  (sic) 'We're Not Going to War': The Chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Preaches Peace and Patience Butte men witness injury at Standing Rock, dispute official acc...

Stop DAPL 11/24

No thanks no giving.  A few articles are available on the internet.  I may add throughout the day as I come across more.  Many videos are online at Facebook.

Stop DAPL 11/21

If you haven't heard, the police attacked the water protectors last night.  Morton County Sheriff tried to claim no water cannons were used, but this has been caught on film.  They also claimed that the water protectors were rioting, which again is not true.  Most of the video is on Facebook though some can be seen through other sources.  More towards the end of yesterday's post of news articles posted last night around this police attack.  One of these days they'll get this part correct: they're water protectors not protesters as they are often referred to in the media.   Call President Obama 202-456-1111, and tell him to stop this pipeline.  He does have the authority to do this. More will be added today.  I'll mark where I add as I did yesterday beginning this afternoon.

Stop DAPL 11/19

I haven't seen much today in terms of articles.  A few are a day or two old.  Some are more recent.  Some may be repeats of postings from earlier days.  I've read so much that some of the time it all seems to run together.
