Cops 4: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Re: Cops 4: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Standing Rock also had ample opportunity to let their concerns be known during the public hearing and permitting process.

There they could've told any and every one (ND PSC, the Army Corps) to shove it. Instead ...

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers "documented dozens of attempts it made to consult with the Standing Rock Sioux from the fall of 2014 through the spring of 2016," federal Judge James Boasberg, an Obama appointee, wrote in September.

"Suffice it to say that the Tribe largely refused to engage in consultations," he continued.

The tribe also did not engage the State of North Dakota when the Public Service Commission was reviewing the pipeline. They showed for not a single meeting about the pipeline, nor did they submit any written testimony to the PSC.

"It is still difficult for me to understand why the tribe didn't intervene in the process and have a seat at the table," Commissioner Julie Fedorchak told reporter Amy Dalrymple.

Well, you might be right. Are outside elites telling Standing Rock to protest this?

Doesn't matter if it's a hostile foreign government telling them to do it. They have an opinion, which means it is just as good as yours.

Yup.
And if I'm so sure about my opinion I'll show up at US Army Corps of Engineer and ND Public Service Commission public open meetings to make sure it's known right along side everyone else's. Especially if they invite me to attend and share.

If you don't show up, don't be surprised if things don't go your way.

Maybe they were just too cowardly to show up so that they could complain either way.

Did the cops do the same thing to certain UND players that did similar stuff ;)

If you don't care about hundreds of hate crimes being committed across the US as the result of one "protest", I'm sure as **** not going to care about two injured cows at another.

I care about the crime. Crime is unacceptable. Full force of law should deal with that.
But the "protest"? Ask the 306 or so electors, and the people who elected them. And I do believe you should start with Michigan's electors as those are yours.

What I find kind of funny is this.

This article has a small map of North Dakota (you have to scroll down a little ways) that includes the pipelines presently in place. Click on the "view bigger map" button to get a full flavor of the existing pipelines in North Dakota.

Then superimpose a map of the state that shows the current location of Native American tribes and their land in North Dakota, and the location of the Missouri River and the lakes created by various dams.

You will see there are, by my count, at least three existing oil pipelines located on the Fort Berthold tribal land, and who knows how many crossing the Missouri River, which is the exact same river they seek to cross south of Mandan near the Standing Rock tribal land.

I guess it's only "sacred ground" when they are not pumping oil out of it or creating jobs on your land with that oil.

Easements. No pipeline on tribal land = no easement money.

Or maybe those ships have already sailed?

Fewer words, more sense.
 
Re: Cops 4: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

It's tough being a cop some times. :D

A belching shirtless woman who told a deputy he was the “sexiest thing” she’d seen was arrested after investigators say she was in a traffic crash, according to an affidavit.

When a Martin County Sheriff’s deputy arrived at the Nov. 24 crash in the area of Southeast Indian Street and Southeast Dixie Highway in Stuart, he noticed Jamie Schmude, 30, behind the wheel of the crashed four-door vehicle.

She had no shirt on, and her unbuttoned jeans were lowered to her thighs.
