They should step aside and let the grown ups get busy.

Indians have never improved anything, ever.

I was at Alcatraz with family last weekend. They trashed that place, too.

There's still some of the "child of the 1960s" in me, sitting in an audience spellbound by Buffy Sainte Marie, outraged by just how bad the feds can be. The pipeline shouldn't be on native lands which the tribes own by treaty. Isn't there somewhere such as along interstates where pipelines could be built that don't destroy the environment or culturally sensitive areas?

That being said, it is true that solar and especially wind create a lot more problems than they solve.

Yeh...they live in teepees...

Never knew teepees had attached garages.

The corps found the pipeline presented no major threats the environment or tribal cultural sites. Yet, instead of accepting science and keeping their word, the same tribes that effectively gave their blessings to the project threw a tantrum.

Hypocrites.

They should stop blowing up those little green propane canisters too.

“and stifles their heritage”

If your “heritage” is so flimsy a pipeline can “stifle” it, it is worthless anyway.

Actual “Native Americans” are about 2% of the participants of this protest.
