Of the protector hit by a grenade explosion. And more details. The comments -- look for MountainMan23 -- have links to stories of veterans gearing up to go stand with the protectors.

Obama is only the president because of the sacrifices of people like MLK and everyone who marched and fought with him for Blacks to get their civil rights. He knows this and that is what makes his silence of the brutally by the people who swore an oath to serve and protect people that much more heinous. The police and the national guard.
Obama swore an oath to protect the constitution and the people in this country from enemies foreign and domestic.
Foreign banks have used eminent domain to build this pipeline and have also used against 9 farmers.
Obama also knows that Bush signed an executive order against the use of eminent domain unless it benefits the community. This doesn't, it puts another essential body of water in harm's way and not to get the United States off from having to rely on foreign oil, but so that more oil can get to the oil facilities so that they can't sell it on the world market.
The cops, the national guard and the mercenaries are all guilty of assault and battery as well as attempted murder when they used the water against the people when it was below freezing. And when they deliberately aimed the rubber bullets at people's faces, their genitals and heads in order to inflict as much damage as possible. One person had most of his scalp removed when a rubber bullet hit him.
Some of them shot percussion grenades at people's heads and we are well aware that one of the percussion grenades exploded on a woman's arm ripping away all of her muscle, bone and her veins and arteries and she will be lucky to keep it.
The only people reporting the truth about what is happening are journalists from independent organizations. The MSM parrots what the sherif reports to them because they can't be bothered to send their own reporters to see what is actually happening. And the sheriff is lying his ass off when he says that the protectors are throwing burning objects at the police while we know that the protesters aren't doing any of those things. The police blocked the bridge that the people use to come and go to get to the camp to bring supplies to it.
And because they had blocked the bridge the injured woman had to drive over 50 more miles to get medical treatment which added more risk to her life.
What type of men can do these types of things to innocent women, children and men?
Seriously, what is wrong with the people who can intentionally inflict harm on their own citizens?
People keep saying how afraid they are about what Trump might do, while the current president is doing these things now.
Listen to Obama's and Hillary's hypocrisy in this video.
Obama said that Gaddafi had to be removed because he was doing these same things against the people protesting him and that he was arresting journalists who were covering the protests.
If Obama thought that Gaddafi should be removed for doing the same things that Obama is apparently okay with, then he too should be removed from office.
Listen to his and Hillary's hypocrisy in this video. It's beyond appalling.
I am so thoughtful disgusted with Obama's presidency after he raised our hopes that he would bring change to this country only to see him not even try to help bring the change that we were desperately needing.
You have done a heck of a job, Bsrack. I can not wait to see you leave the White House.
You have been nothing but a puppet to the elites, the corporations and the MICC.
And that is going to be your legacy.

The world has them and it is something to be thankful for. So f* the pilgrims, they were a bunch of rancid, psychotic, trouble makers that were kicked out of their own country. Where, let me tell you, they were up against some right stiff competition given the levels of torture and genocide they were inflicting on just the Irish, let alone everywhere else in their incipient empire.

/rant off now enjoy the fruits of the harvest and honour the land it comes from. Remember what was done and then work to stop it continuing.

3,800 miles of pipe would seem to be very vulnerable to widespread applications of thermite. The only way it runs is if we let it.

I've been surprised that although I've been following Standing Rock closely, I haven't seen a single mention of Leonard Peltier. Perhaps most people don't remember this Sioux political prisoner incarcerated since the early 70s at a prison in Florida, so far away from his home that friends and family have a difficult time visiting him. He was a leader of the American Indian Movement when it was attacked by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI. The Sioux fought back, people died, including an FBI agent. Leonard Peltier was charged with murder. The all-white jury agreed, although evidence was scanty. After the guilty verdict, when exculpatory evidence was discovered, the court refused to hear it.
This would be a good time to launch an attempt to persuade President Obama to set him free. It would mean a great deal to the Native Americans and there probably would not be any objection from the oil companies. I don't know how to launch such an attempt but I certainly would be willing to help. As Leonard signs his occasional letters from prison ... In The Spirit of Crazy Horse

it is actually the middle of the campaign for profits over humanity. People have chosen not to protest US actions in the Middle East or slave shops in third world countries or fracking throughout the world, so now the corporations have brought the war home. The military-industrial-bank-oil complex started with the most vulnerable, but they will work their way up as they discover more ways to profit the select few.

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
