Yes I know the handler you speak of--she was a real piece of work.
What I know right now is that the judge went in yesterday and did some work and the Obama Administration got involved and has placed a restraining order against the company doing anything right now. They are having an emergency court today at 3 pm in DC. This was brought about by the dogs and pepper spray incidents. So we'll see has that goes. I don't know if you're aware but the pipeline was originally supposed to start north of Bismark but then the Gov decided that what if it busted and ruined their water supply!!!! So it was brought down because I mean after all who cares about those Siouxs anyway. That in itself violates the 1868 Ft. Laramie Treaty. And folks need to understand it is not just their water supply but if something goes wrong it is going to affect a hell of a lot more people than just the Indians.
Yes for some reason its not been much on the news. I've seen it on HLN. MSNBC and yesterday it made CNN. If it wasn't the age of cellphones, social media, etc. I don't know how much we would know that goes on. Our news station here had no clue but they do now cause I talked to them last night and they are very interested.
LOL If I find your friend I will give him a shoutout from you. My husband's first cousin is a photographer for the Sota (pronounced Show-ta) which is the tribal paper for the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate--he is up there and I don't even know if I'll be able to find him!!! There are 1700-2000 people a day--during the week anyway. Reports have been up to 4000 on weekends. And more are going in.
Again thanks for the info and being straight up. I thought I might could come back to my "old stomping grounds" LOL and find out a little more. Have a great day.

The minimal media coverage is unbelievable. There almost MUST be suppression at work. Such an historic assemblage of trubes would be all over the news, if it "just" a huge pow wow or festival. But, because they are trying to protect their sacred land, water source, etc., there is damn-near a media black-out. I understood the first week--it was during the Olympics...and sports are always more important than "some people." 😢

Forgot to mention, the pipeline is also being protested in Iowa, because water at that end is in jeopardy, too. STILL not the media coverage you'd expect when little white-haired 80 year old women are being cuffed and arrested.

In my understanding they need a permission in case it´s a private property?
