Hey guys I know you have all likely heard about the Dakota Access Pipeline and its subsequent protests. Now there is a lot of information to sort threw but what we do know is that it posses serious environmental concerns to the Sioux native american tribes water, there have been hundreds of thousands of pounds of oil spills in the past ten years, it will happen with the #DAPL, it is only a matter of time, on top of that it posses a threat to sacred areas for this tribe. In reality this is just another example of the super rich and political elite trampling over our rights, and our democracy
In response people from all over the world have been protesting, and flying to Standing Rock, the police have fought back by shooting rubber bullets at people, arresting journalists, and filmmakers, and placing them in dog kennels (constitutional violations are regular there now). They have been showing up decked out in military equipment, police from 5 states, and agents from 20 different agencies. A DAPL security employee even drove threw a barricade, charged at protesters, got out with an AR15 just to let off a few shots and get arrested.
Obama, and the mainstream media are ignoring this but those at Standing Rock including my Twin will not, and those whose water and lives will be impacted cannot either.
The political goons running for office right now are afraid to speak on it because they are afraid it'll harm the election, while I think this is disgraceful and the mark of a moral coward, we know what kinds of people these politicians are in the first place, so we are not surprised.
Now everyday people including myself cannot always get up and go to a protest, until today. Here is brief explanation and guide on how you can do your part, from home, while doing anything, even playing World of Warcraft
"The Morton County Sheriff's Department has been using Facebook check-ins to find out who is at Standing Rock in order to target them in attempts to disrupt the prayer camps. SO Water Protectors are calling on EVERYONE to check-in at Standing Rock, ND to overwhelm and confuse them. This is concrete action that can protect people putting their bodies and well-beings on the line that we can do without leaving our homes. Will you join me in Standing Rock?
If you're sharing your location at Standing Rock:
1) Make it public.
2) Make the clarification post SEPARATE, and limit post visibility to your friends only.
3) Don't clarify on your check-in post; privately message friends who say "stay safe!" to let them know what's up.
4) Copy/paste to share clarification messages (like this one) because making it public blows our cover.
5) Use an alternate name in clarification posts so that when they filter out / search those terms, your post is visible to the right people."
