For all you folks who do not seem to understand. I doubt any or at least many of you would agree to have an oil pipeline go through Arlington Cemetary or close enough to ruin it should there be a leak.
I side with the Native Americans on this one...we can reroute the pipeline. The Indians have been poorly treated, once again.
You are falling for the Leftist narrative.
On the Dakota Access Pipeline, let’s stick to the facts

I think you should go out there and protest. And stop using oil. You are using oil hundreds of times directly and indirectly at this very second by merely sitting at your computer.
There is no evidence of any burials there. Archaeologists have already checked the route. Twice.
The pipeline was routed so it wouldn’t cross the reservation and now you want to reroute it? This line is on private land with 100 percent landowner approval. The protesters can go pound sand. Your comparison to Arlington is total bullchit the line is not crossing burial grounds or even native American owned land. There’s also a few more pipelines already crossing this so called sacred water source. It’s also being reported that few of the locals are even protesting this crossing in fact many approve. This protest is being organized by outside sources just like any other lib protest. Who would benefit from this line not being complete? The answer is up thread, another member hit the nail on the head. Don’t fall for emotion and follow the facts.
This pipeline has been in the works for nearly a decade...it has met ALL the legal and regulatory requirements imposed by all the government bureaucracies involved...it was APPROVED by the Obama administration...it has survived every court challenge because it has followed the law to a tee.
I side with the RULE OF LAW on this one.
