Green groups promise guerrilla warfare tactics to stop Keystone pipeline

Environmental activists vowed over the weekend to fight the Keystone XL oil pipeline to the bitter end, insisting the Trump administration’s approval of the long-delayed project will not be the final word.

Powerful green groups are launching a two-pronged strategy to block the pipeline in the streets and in the courts. First, they intend to use a state review process in Nebraska — where Keystone still does not have a legal route, despite federal approval of the project — to delay any movement forward.

Nebraska state officials charged with approving the pipeline’s path say a decision shouldn’t be expected until September at the earliest, and environmentalists could drag that process out even longer.

The second piece of their plan centers on the kind of guerrilla warfare tactics seen throughout last year during the fight over the Dakota Access pipeline.

Activists say they’ll organize protests and even set up camps along Keystone’s proposed route, potentially blocking construction of the project if and when it’s set to begin.

Hmmm. Guerilla? Isn't that racis' or something? Anywho, sounds to me like collusion to commit criminal acts. I thought there was a law against that. Oh, duh! That doesn't apply if your tryin' to save the erf. Maybe they could talk to the Russians since they seem to be running things currently.

Maybe Trump can reach out to them...

Hmmm. Guerilla?

Don’t they know what happened to Harambe?

Bounty?

I’m thinking Nebraska is the wrong place to try any of this eco-fascist crap. That state typically votes solid red except for the whiny libs in Lincoln and a few in the Bolshevik throwback called Saline County.

Seems like more winning. Think how many more jobs(security) will be created over this threat of terrorism.

[SandRat]

Send in DELTA Force to clear the Gorillas out.

There are currently thousands and thousands of miles of pipelines under the US, carrying oil, petroleum products and natural gas. What is the big deal about these? They are the latest technology and will do no damage. They said the Alaska pipeline would be a disaster. It hasn’t been. They are lunatics......................

[G Larry]

Ask the Commie Greens whether they prefer the Trains and Trucks of the Billionaires, transporting and dumping the oil in all too frequent wrecks and derailments?

I’d like to hire on to the pipeline security force.

"There's gorillas round that pipeline, Boss."

[Enchante]

yup, zillions of existing oil and gas pipelines.... the EcoNuts are deranged. Ofc in their minds they are trying to block use of evil "fossil fuels" - they will do anything to push their demented agenda.

“Promises of guerrilla warfare” can lead to discussions on ballistic coefficients.

Correction: “Maybe Trump can reach out to them” with a club.

[chief lee runamok]

They will continue building mountains of garbage to obstruct pipeline construction.

Time to invest in popcorn and body bags.

They are apparently not deterred by embarrassing viral photos of their gigantic trash filled, sewer mismanaged previous camp.
