Environmental hypocrites who were protesting against the Dakota Access oil pipeline, burned oil to keep themselves warm!
They also left enough litter to fill more than 250 garbage trucks!
Fox News writes of this: (the bolding is mine)
What was once a bustling makeshift city is now a largely abandoned garbage pit. Teepees and yurts, thousands of sheets of plywood and tents, kerosene and propane stoves, diesel and gasoline generators, food, clothing, cars and mountains of human waste lie in what was once a pristine floodplain that abutted the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation.
Nothing but bison and horses roamed here. Unless the debris is moved, state officials say it will wash into and contaminate the Missouri River.
Already 250 loads of trash have been removed, but much more remains. And police say they need to get everyone out to finish the job.
This suggests to me that the real reason for their protest has nothing to do with protecting the environment.
I think this fake environment protest is all about the egos of the protestors, and has nothing to do with actually protecting the environment.
I think the real reason for their protest is so they can smugly pat each other on the back, and falsely claim that they “protected” the environment.
Actions speak louder than words. And their actions show that they don’t give a darn about the environment that they claim to be “protecting.”
So you post your same blog post two days in a row?
Will you post it again tomorrow?
Why not two or three times a day?
Better still.. why not just post the source where you got the material and be done with it?
...They also left enough litter to fill more than 250 garbage trucks...
Typical for fringe lunatic liberal gatherings. ;
Pass cleanup costs back to the native American tribes who promoted this fiasco. Once their neighbors and relatives have to carry the burden of consequences for what the protestors have done, perhaps the protestors will learn the error of their ways. Payback can be a bitch!
Gee, I guess these postings weren’t enough?

Those are just the postings with the word “Dakota” in the title that have to do with the cleanup.
If you do a deeper search you’ll find at least a half dozen more.
But the “morning crowd” couldn’t survive without your reblogging Fox News?
Face it Gooch, your blog had nothing to do with this story and your rehash of it adds nothing to the telling.
The Gunner...
He’s got our Texas-back for blog-click bait!
Won’t happen.
Indians don’t hold themselves accountable.
The town on the Blackfoot Reservation in MT, Browning, is bankrupt because the Indians won’t tax themselves.
You want to see the regard for the environment, drive through Browning, Montana. As you say, no accountability. You know you’ve hit the rez boundary when the beer cans and trash litter the ditches alongside the highway. Trash bags flutter in the fence wire. Feral dogs run the streets. Abandoned cars everywhere. Crumbling government housing. Yeah. Words versus acts.
Look at the houses the pale faces gave them.
