    Political Police working for Big Oil have been suppressing Native Americans protesting the construction of the North Dakota Access pipeline, which is on their land, the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, and will pollute drinking water and destroy cultural artifacts. Burial grounds are being bulldozed. A 21st Century "Manifest Destiny":

    Amnesty responds:

    Nevertheless:

    The pipeline is not on Indian land and never has been.

    Look how CNN reports this:

    Not a word about police brutality. At least it mentions that:

    This will multiple 1000% if Hilary Clinton becomes president. The Democratic Party under Hilary Clinton has become the corporate fascism party.

    A speaker at a Hillary rally, who was escorted off stage for saying only Wall Street and Henry Kissinger can depend on Killary, said speakers were instructed not to talk about the pipeline.

    For Standing Rock Sioux, new water system may reduce oil leak risk
    Nov 22 2016 - For months, North Dakota's Standing Rock Sioux tribe has been protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline's planned crossing under the Missouri River, adjacent to their lands, in part due to worries about contamination of their primary water source.

    I hate to be the one to break this to you, but it is not their land. It is Federal Land, put in a trust. As proof, have a Native American try to get a mortgage or sell a piece of "their land". They can't, because it is not theirs..........

    Fear of oil leaking aside, who stands to lose the most if this pipe line is completed? Burlington Northern Santa Fe

    And when did the response to the protesters start to become aggressive? A hint in the link....

    And who owns BNSF? And not only do they own it, it is the single largest investment this guy has ever made....Some call him the Oracle of Omaha.

    Warren Buffet has owned BNSF since 2009 and he is the driving force behind the stalling of not only the Dakota Access Pipe line, but also the Keystone Pipe line. Everyday that he can delay the completion of these pipe lines, is another day that his trains get paid to haul 100,000 barrels of crude.

    These protesters pawns in Buffets oil play and if they would just stay off his railroads and stick to protesting the pipe line, he will leave them alone..

    It's unfortunate that Buffet has decided to enter politics in the way he has in the last couple years. He has lost a lot of fans and people are now looking much more closely into what his ties actually are.

    People want to call him a savior and whatnot simply because he lives in a small town with a reltatively simple life for his wealth.

    In all reality he is a human being and has the same greed that we all suffer from, he will do what is best for him. Sadly I no longer consider him "the oracle" as I used to, have been very disappointing as he turns more and more into Soros.

    cops love to harass people of color:



    http://www.startnetzero.net/player/...iams_stopped_by_police_for_taking_a_walk-5min




    Had he been white or female, they would have left the innocent person alone - as I have mentioned before, there is only ONE way to stop this continued government harassment of innocent -- use your 2d Amendment rights en masse. Funny thing is, why don't anti-government right wingers say the same things????






    Let's see all the forum Republicans and other right wingers say out loud,



    "When governments fear the people, there is liberty," reads the quotation. "When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."

    Army to Allow Completion of Dakota Access Oil Pipeline
    Wednesday 8th February, 2017 - The stretch under Lake Oahe is the final big chunk of work on the 1,200-mile pipeline that would carry North Dakota oil through the Dakotas and Iowa to a shipping point in Illinois. Developer Energy Transfer Partners had hoped to have oil flowing through the pipeline by the end of 2016, but construction has been stalled while the Army Corps of Engineers and the Dallas-based company battled in court over the crossing.
