Standing Rock Pipeline Protest

[zorgon]

Fargo, ND

A craigslist ad says it will pay people to come and protest the Dakota access pipeline--offering even more if they quit their job.

The ad says it will pay 50 dollars for an adult, and 20 for a child if they come and help shut down West Acres Mall this Friday.

The post says you can also get one-thousand-dollars if you prove you quit your job to protest the pipeline.

The mall and Fargo Police say they're aware of the possibility of a protest and police say if the mall does call them during the event, they will take the necessary steps to restore order.

"As soon as laws are being broken, we are paid to enforce those laws and keep people safe," said. Lt. Bill Ahlfeld of the Fargo Police Department.

We reached out to the person who posted the craigslist ad, but they didn't get back to us

     First of all, I wish to apologize to Thorfourwinds , for any disrespect to you that you feel I inflicted on you personally, it certainly was not my intention.

I did find the womans name and articles, her name is Elaine Wellman  ,although she is not the only one speaking up, she has been doing so for quite sometime.

Also in the last 8 years I have become very skeptical about all things political and Standing Rock has certainly been turned into a "political  circus". And nothing is, as it appears to be on the the surface , you scratch a little, only to find that everyone has an agenda , that may or may not be quite what it appears to be. Especially when it comes to dividing the American people of all races, color, and creed  , driven apart by a 3rd, hidden partys agenda. That is not good for any of us. I only ask for us all to consider that a coin has two sides.

I live in a state with at least 11 different Tribes, I live a rocks throw from a Reservation, I have Tribal Members in my immediate family. And ponder what would be best for All people. Hopefully, this will settle without harm.
Thoughtfully, Phedre

A possible solution for Standing Rock.  Apparently similar fracking companies wanted to put a pipeline in Nebraska, but the people there figured out the relevant law, and then beat them over the head with it.  It seems that this is able to get around the riot police goons as well.

Governor orders emergency evacuation of Standing Rock camp citing harsh weather

North Dakota protesters call the declaration 'menacing,' say they won't move

The governor of North Dakota, Jack Dalrymple (R), has ordered protesters at the site of the proposed Dakota Access Pipeline to evacuate their camps in the face of bad weather. Dalrymple pointed to incoming storms as the justification for the order, which was signed on Monday, saying that "any person who chooses to enter, re-enter, or stay in the evacuation area does so at their own risk, and assumes any and all corresponding liabilities for their unlawful presence and occupation of the evacuation area."

The order specifies that emergency services will be restricted to the camp while it is in effect, with fire trucks and ambulances provided on a case-by-case basis, dependent on approval from the county sheriff and highway patrol. Dave Archambault II, the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe leading the protests, issued a statement that said the order was "a menacing action meant to cause fear, and is a blatant attempt by the state and local officials to usurp and circumvent federal authority."

Central North Dakota is expected to receive between 8 and 13 inches of snow from storms that hit the region late on Monday. The storms, which should last until Wednesday, will also bring 25 mph winds.

Jeff Zent, a spokesperson for the governor's administration, said that the state would not be forcibly removing people from the protest camps, as they were situated on US Army Corps of Engineers land. "We fully expect the federal government to take the lead on the management of their property," Zent told local news.

Protesters organized a press conference in response to the order. Attorney Angela Bibens said the governor did not have jurisdiction on land managed by the Army Corps of Engineers, while others said they had no plans to leave.

"We're not going to be going anywhere, especially in the middle of a blizzard in North Dakota," organizer Kandi Mossett said, while Archambault II argued that it would be more dangerous to "force well-situated campers from their shelters and into the cold."

Dalrymple's order comes as the FAA banned journalists from flying drones near the Standing Rock protest. Footage of police using water cannons on protesters in freezing temperatures went viral last week after it was captured from the air. The video shows police trying to shoot the drone down with the water cannon after turning it on people standing below.

The Army Corps of Engineers had previously stated that protesters had until December 5th to leave the camps near the proposed pipeline and move to "safer locations," including an area noted by the tribe as a winter camp, and an area the Corps has termed the "free speech zone." A statement issued by the Corps said that people who stayed near the site would do so at their own risk, but that it would not remove protesters forcibly after the December 5th date.

Earlier this month, the Corps had indicated that the Dakota Access Pipeline needed more study before it would grant rights to finish its construction, saying it would work with Standing Rock members to reach a timeline.

#NoDAPL Update: North Dakota Governor Orders Evacuation of Standing Rock Protest Site

Published on Nov 29, 2016
The Republican governor of North Dakota, Jack Dalrymple, has brought in the army corps to quell protests over the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline, and has ordered an immediate evacuation of the Standing Rock Sioux protest site. This may be difficult to enforce, but this order will allow the state government to block out food and other crucial supplies, and is basically an attempt to starve out the protesters.

PROPHETIC WARNING: DAPL and North Dakota Protests! Heed!

Kim Weir
Published on Nov 28, 2016
This warning is for those protesting the DAPL or the oil pipe line that the government wants to put in North Dakota. The Lord showed me that lives will be lost. I pray that if anyone does not know Jesus Christ as the only way to The Living God and salvation, that you ask Jesus to be Lord of your life. Turn away from sin and turn to His truths.

I also encourage Christians who live near this area to go to these people and share the gospel of Jesus Christ and pray with people!

Please keep the Native Americans and this entire situation regarding the pipeline IN YOUR PRAYERS.
God bless you and keep you.

Sheriffs Refuse To Reinforce Cops At Standing Rock

Published on Nov 28, 2016
Some sheriff departments are refusing to send reinforcements to the police at Standing Rock. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Support Veterans for Standing Rock #NoDAPL here: here.

"In response to an increasingly furious public outcry, sheriffs from around the country have refused to send personnel and equipment to assist the Morton County Sheriff's Department in guarding construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline.

A massive campaign of angry phone calls and indignant emails to departments planning to travel to North Dakota succeeded in persuading multiple sheriffs — elected officials — the brutal tactics used against peaceful Standing Rock Sioux and other water protectors have been a gross abuse of power.

That law enforcement have employed disproportionate force against water protectors is irrefutable; and while Morton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier might technically be tasked with ensuring Dakota Access can proceed where legally permitted, he is indisputably responsible for protecting people exercising their First Amendment rights.

Clearly, to the appalled constituents and people around the world voicing outrage against Morton County and other departments, officers have completely dismissed that protection — and, instead, acted as a rogue standing army, intentionally targeting medics, journalists, and water protectors with everything from rubber bullets and tear gas, to icy water and concussion grenades."

Psychological and Cyber Warfare at Standing Rock

November 29th, 2016.
Connecting to the internet in Standing Rock is a difficult task. Most people have been using cellular data from a single hill, named "Facebook Hill", in the west of camp. Unfortunately, the signal has been weak and is suspected of being interfered with by unknown parties. If there is a real need for wifi, people head to the casino 10 minutes south by car.

Not being a technologist myself, I spoke to Lisha Sterling from Geeks Without Bounds in order to understand what is happening and who is responsible. GWB works to support humanitarian causes with open-source technology, hackathons and accelerator programs that deploy solutions ("hacks") into conflict situations. Sterling has a background in technology reaching back to 1993 and has degrees in Latin American Studies and Migration Studies. GWB is a merger of her humanitarian work and technology background. Upon arrival to Standing Rock, her phone crashed. I asked Sterling to help me understand what might be causing our cell phones to be acting up.

People have reported having their phones misbehaving in odd ways. Sterling has personally heard from hundreds of people about their cell phones acting odd. Batteries dying without warning are the most common reports. But there are creepier incidence, like FaceTime turning on by itself, voice recorders activating, apps malfunctioning, browsers seizing, messages disappearing, and strange noises during calls. My iPhone reset itself as if brand new from the box in my first week at Standing Rock.

According to Sterling, one of the reasons there is so much political change going on in the world right now, the reason that movements like the Arab Spring or Occupy were possible, is because of the power of instant global communication through the internet. Both of those movements happened in mostly urbanized areas. Standing Rock has both geography and non-urbanized infrastructure restricting it from reaching the outside world. The main camps are in a basin-shaped section of land, beneath the cell signal, and there are few internet service providers nearby.

Since it is possible to intercept cell phone traffic using any number of invisible techniques, these reports beg the question: Why are we being made to know we are being watched?

"There are programs that turn on without you knowing it," says Sterling, "[the glitches are] either very sloppy, or psychological warfare."

There is a climate of surveillance in the occupation camps. Overhead, an airplane circles every hour or so. As it passes over, Sterling reports there is an increase in cell phone battery deaths, and even car batteries dying. The plane flies at night without lights on. Helicopters fly over the camp taking photos. There are very likely infiltrators from DAPL and the government in camp with the water protectors.

Whatever information is being gathered, it is a bonus to the scare tactic of living beneath a security apparatus. The intimidation is strongly reminiscent of the motto used by the Air Force's Special Operations Wing in charge of Psy-Ops, "Never Seen, Always Heard."

No one knows for sure who is behind the attacks, but the top suspects include a collusion between Morton County Sheriff Department, Energy Transfer Partners' security and intelligence contractor TigerSwan or another military contractor, the National Guard, and/or the North Dakota State Police. There is no shortage of theories. Most people simply just blame the federal government since they hold ultimate jurisdiction over the situation.

One suspected technology in use is called an IMSI-catcher, which is used to intercept cellular phone traffic and monitor a device's location. It works by mimicking a cell tower, causing the phone to connect to it and brokering the connection to the actual cell tower. In this way, all data, text and voice traffic can be monitored if it is not encrypted. This is one theory to explain the oddities in device operation, but has not yet been confirmed. The Freedom of Information Act requests that were sent to the North Dakota State Police, Morton County Sheriff and the Nation Guard were all rejected on grounds of security.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation is currently conducting an investigation

On November 9th, 2016, at 1:48pm CT, I received a text message from Google informing me of a fraudulent attempt to access my email. When I got the message my stomach sank. I was being targeted and I didn't know why. According to the report, someone in Belcourt, ND, was trying to access my email. I found the IP address in Google's security report, looked it up using an online service, and discovered something amazing.

The unknown device came from Fort Totten, North Dakota, and was registered to the State of North Dakota ITD.

A week later, one of my colleagues at Oceti Sakowin Camp Media had their Paypal account hacked into. The perpetrator used funds to purchase goods and drain the account. The account was receiving donations to buy a winter structure.

People around camp reported similar stories to me. One man had his messages to a relative deleted from their device out-of-state while he was in jail. Another girl reported her device would ask for login data for facebook and google, but if she closed and opened the programs they would work fine. One woman I spoke to reported that her phone call to her mother had been redirected to another camper in Standing Rock whom she did not know.

Subtle intimidation like this is creates a train of logic that leads into darker places. If my rights are fallible at Standing Rock, what else am I risking? Unfortunately, there is another question that is important to address.

If we accept this kind of intimidation as legal, how long will it take for this feeling to become normalized in mainstream America?

So, what can you do at Standing Rock to protect your electronics?

-Download "Signal" to use for text messaging. Learn how to use it for voice calls as well.
-Turn off Automatic Updates in your Settings. IMSI-catchers can inject software via updates.
-Backup your phone to your computer before you come out here.
-Do not update your operating system – there may be malware in it.
-Update your operating system – there are security patches in it.

The contradiction between the last two is difficult to work around. You need system updates to protect from the most recent security threats. However, I myself received a message for a system update that does not coincide with any release from Apple. No one I know with an iPhone needs to update their software, so why am I being asked to...? Catch-22s like this lend themselves to the atmosphere of suspicion. There is an invisible antagonist winking at us, but no one knows exactly what that means, but we know how it feels.
Cannon Ball, North Dakota.

We don't need this.  I don't want to see gender exclusion or bias in any form.  I don't want to see it in the case of men, and I don't want to see it in the case of women.  I'm tired of the insinuation that men can not be nurturing; we can be.  I'm also sick of double standards.  Female chauvanism is no more politically correct in my own head than male.

No exclusion, no chauvanism, no bias.  Not for whites, blacks, reds, yellows, men OR women.  No one is first, no one is last.  We are in this exclusively together, and side by side, or not at all.  No one ahead, no one behind.

Greetings World:

It appears Ace Hardware has reversed its corporate policy on Thursday, December 2, after an outcry on social media (concerned citizens were threatening a nationwide boycott) and national news coverage, and said it would sell propane in the area of Standing Rock.

Now, about that rogue Sheriff and those illegal $1,000 fines to individuals for aiding and abetting the Water Protectors by attempting to deliver critical supplies. Intimidation under the color of authority by that misguided individual is a criminal offense. Not providing snowplows to keep the roads open to the camp is a sure recipe for disaster, as emergency vehicles cannot operate in that environment.

FYI: To get to Standing Rock Camp without being stopped by local LEOs, enter the Cheyenne River Reservation from South Dakota and go from there to Standing Rock.

That way, you will be entering from Indian country where the oil police and their hired thugs have no jurisdiction. Remember, the grocery stores are hours away, but  it appears that propane sales in Morton County have been "un-banned" by that ever-vigilant Sheriff who is attempting an illegal blockade of Standing Rock to starve and deprive water protectors of basic necessities.

The power of social media...ONE DAY and the ACE corporate mind is changed...

Winter storm hits the Oceti Sakowin Camp in North Dakota

01 December 2016

The Standing Rock Sioux issued an emergency proclamation in support of Oceti Sakowin Camp in the face of ongoing threats by law enforcement.

On Wednesday, Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Chairman Dave Archambault II issued an emergency proclamation calling on the United Nations and U.S. President Barack Obama to take "immediate action" to defend the water protectors at the Oceti Sakowin camp from "retaliatory actions and practices" by state law enforcement agencies, and to defend activists' "rights to free speech and peaceable assembly."

"North Dakota law enforcement will begin to block supplies from reaching protesters at a camp near the construction site of an oil pipeline project in an effort to force demonstrators to vacate the area, officials said on Tuesday. Supplies, including food and building materials, will be blocked from entering the main camp following Governor Jack Dalrymple's signing of an "emergency evacuation" order on Monday, Maxine Herr, a spokeswoman from the Morton County Sheriff's Department, said."

"This week is the anniversary of the Sand Creek Massacre. It's time for the United States to end its legacy of abuses against Native Americans. We call on the United Nations and President Barack Obama to take immediate action to prohibit North Dakota from engaging in its retaliatory actions and practices," Archambault said. "As a tribal nation, we call on the President to take all the appropriate steps to ensure water protectors are safe and that their rights to free speech and peaceful assembly are protected. Gov. Dalrymple had a chance today to condemn the violence and unlawful acts of state and local governments, but failed to do so," the statement added.

The statement is the first official response by Chairman Archambault to the most recent actions by North Dakota officials, which have threatened the lives and well-being of the Water Protectors at the Oceti Sakowin camp who are protesting the construction of the multi-billion dollar Dakota Access Pipeline that threatens Indigenous sovereignty, local water sources and a devastating increase in carbon emissions.

The estimated 3 thousand water protectors gathered at the Oceti Sakowin camp face increasingly harsh conditions as winter descends on North Dakota. The Standing Rock Medic & Healer Council issued a statement on Monday saying the combination of sub-zero temperatures and the increasingly violent actions of law enforcement agencies, including the use of water cannons and chemical weapons, threatens the health and safety of thousands at the camp.

On Tuesday, North Dakota law enforcement announced that essential supplies, including food and building materials, would be blocked from entering the camp in an attempt to enforce North Dakota Governor Jack Dalrymple's emergency evacuation order issued on Monday. After outrage at this fundamental attack on the water protectors' basic human rights, the sheriff's office later clarified that supplies would not be physically blocked, but that they would issue US $1,000 fines to any vehicle attempting to deliver supplies. This echoes earlier threats by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers which issued an evacuation order last Friday saying that anyone remaining at the camp after Dec. 5 "may be subject to citation under federal, state, or local laws."

However dire the conditions may be, they have not dampened the determination of the water protectors. Madonna Antoine Eagle Hawk, who runs a kitchen at the camp told Vice News, "We've been here for hundreds of years. We've survived through hundreds of years of winters — we're not going anywhere. If they think we're not prepared for it, they need to think again."

In defiance of both federal and state evacuation orders, an estimated 2,000 U.S. Army veterans have pledged to act as "human shields" to prevent any attempt at forcible removal of the camp. They are expected to arrive at Oceti Sakowin Camp on Dec. 4.

How anyone can say that this NOT political , is beyond me? Heck, even my Kelloggs cornflakes has turned "political". I offer a sample of insanity, if you burn an American Flag, that's OK  , if you burn a Gay Rainbow Flag, well, that's a hate crime, jail and Big fines.

In the desire to be Special and Above the Rule of Law, the claim that certain "Rights" are above all others, Phooey! I know of no Special Humans that came into this world, any different than others, despite race, color, or creed. There is nothing "Divine"
About any of this, unless of course, you consider, the US Government your new God, they have given "Certain" rights to certain people in direct conflict with the "Rights" given at the same time to others. This is called Anarchy, stir the pot and and "Watch it Boil".

Humans are such silly creatures, they love their deities that THEY, have created and make war.  The earth is doing just fine, humans ,not so good. Perhaps we need to find a way to save us from ourselves?

This gives you the legal reason why the injunction was denied.

As far as the Ft. Laramie treaties of 1851 and 1868 they are not valid because of: The Agreement of 1877 (19 Stat. 254, enacted February 28, 1877: http://digital.library.okstate.edu/kappler/Vol1/HTML_files/SES0168.html#art9

"I don't think we would have been having this discussion if they did. "We could have changed the route," Mr. Warren added. "It could have been done, but it's too late."

The audio file below is from a Standing Rock Tribal Council meeting with ETP/DAPL representatives that occurred September 30th 2014.

A meeting that occurred before permits were submitted and more than a year before the Draft Environmental Assessment was released.

A document prepared by DAPL that never mentions any of the concerns stated in this meeting, nor does it mention Standing Rock. Energy Transfer Partners assertion that they "didn't know" of our concerns is false.
