Feds refuse to approve permits for DAPL

[-Hyperion-]

Spineless corporatist Obama should've made this move ages ago........it requires nothing of him and Trump takes the political hit when he gives the go ahead for the pipe...

NO DAPL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why don't they just go around the burial lands

because if they do they go around "american owned homes" pretty much and you know how that goes.

The alt route that was proposed and rejected went away from the indian land and closer to bismarck, which is the capital of north dakota.

That's dumb. They're dead so they wouldn't mind.

if we do that.... why dont they put a pipeline throught Fort McPherson US Military National Cemetery?

Yeah man. Good news.

Sacred Lands? Why? Because Geronimo took a crap on those fields once?

Freaking Indians have no problem building casinos on "sacred lands".

The army should bulldoze all those Chiefs and Hollywood actors into the river.

Tyler Perry owns that stuff now so you'd have to ask him

Obama will find a way to reject any pipeline route no matter how far from residential or how ridiculous the reasons are because he hates pipeline.

Good to see native Americans taking a stand against Big Oil.

Because it's the natives land. The feds just kick them around like it was still in the 1800's still. That's a shame. Steal their country and then **** on them and the tiny weenie plot of land that we gave to them.

The white man beat the Native. The Spanish beat the Natives. How the **** is this an issue.
It was their land. We expanded and conquered as ANY NATION IN HISTORY has done, and that's that.

I seriously do not understand the "we stole their land" argument.
