It had me in tears. This us what our country used to be about. Sitting Bull was correct - the white man came to learn more. Let's hope that learning sinks in.

Just read about a stop to the pipeline, for now. I hope it's true. Perhaps the veterans showing up had an effect on their thinking. People are showing up. It's not okay to trample the people.

He's an amazing guy - A riverkeeper and activist. He worked very hard during the gulf oil spill.

All the best RA!

I have a horrible feeling that they've just delayed, to defuse a flash-point for mass - albeit peaceful - revolution, perhaps until the current attempt at censorship of the internet has been achieved. The optics weren't good, shall we say? Especially, as you say, with thousands of veterans coming to stand against the militarized police and vicious imported branch of whatever-Blackwater-is-currently-being-called mercenaries invading the territory. But if nobody can see, optics aren't an issue for TPTB, right?

I am very glad that people continue to come and to stay to stand with, and as, the Water Protectors, as I suspect that this may not be finally and satisfactorily resolved until charges are brought against all those involved in this invasion and attack. Although I hope that these are unwarranted suspicions, the days of justifiable trust in 'the authorities' - or the destructive corporations and billionaires that own them - are long gone.

Psychopathy is not a political position, whether labeled 'conservatism', 'centrism' or 'left'.

A tin labeled 'coffee' may be a can of worms or pathology identified by a lack of empathy/willingness to harm others to achieve personal desires.

what they have is bullets. And what happens when they run out?

peace to the protecters

snowballs, sheesh.

No, it's not guns,

At least they aren't flinging poop yet.

Peace and success to the Protectors.

saying the Water Protectors plan to arm the Vets and cause violence. Such utter horseshit.

For one of the Corporation Law Enforcement Thugs to imagine a weapon in the hands of a veteran and set the stage for another Police Massacre...

Sheriff Paul Laney needs to find a New Job outside of Law Enforcement where he cannot harm others...

I don't know enough about the legal stuff to know if these are enough to stop the pipe layers. But it really sounds like good news.

One may hope that the company obeys this and does not simply proceed, to have this then left as a 'done deal', as seems to be so common in crimes committed by those treated as if 'above the law'. One may hope very hard.

This is good news, but we must stay vigilant.

Moving the pipeline is not the goal. Stopping all pipelines are the goal

But today we can celebrate the power of the people!
