Desecration, Mace and Police Snipers With Rifles at DAPL Front Lines
Standing Rock Protest
Reported by Sarah Sunshine Manning on 10/27/16 at 1:10pm Central Daylight Time as it was happening from the side of Highway 1806 at the Treaty Camp erected in the path of bulldozers that are 200 feet away. She said it seems intent of DAPL is to push through at all costs, and police are clearing the way.
As we watch the threat of arrests unfold, water protectors are calling for help to build up presence in camp. If hundreds of people are arrested here today, more people are needed to shore up the front lines of the blockade. If you’re thinking about coming to help at Standing Rock, now is the time, say organizers.

President Obama knows about this betrayal.
This should have never happened.
Why this happen?
Because rich people are greedy.
Because racism moved the pipeline into a native American community.
Because our government allowed this to happen.
Protesters have maintained that the land is not private and was given to Great Sioux Nation in the Treaty of Fort Laramie in 1851. The land was subsequently taken back by the US government.

All information from the OWS protests, everything from Ferguson protests, ect, was used to formulate how much it would take to remove the Standing Rock protesters.
They told us that the Homeland Security money given to police was to protect us from terrorists.
Same weapons used. Bean bag rounds, pepper spray, and an LRAD sound cannon.
30 to 40 police units around the construction workers. Police are trying to clear space for the bulldozers so they can plow through the easement right now.
Piercing sirens are constantly blaring. Low flying planes and helicopters are circling. There are armored cars, ATVs, police units and troops on foot moving.
As I stood with a documentary filmmaker, she said that she had reported from Iraq and was more afraid here with all the militarized weapons and troops. She was scared and left quickly saying, “This is a war zone!”
