For months, environmental protesters have clashed with police and private security companies over plans for the Dakota Access Pipeline, a $3.7 billion project that opponents say will destroy Native American sites and affect the region’s water supply. While mainstream media have covered flashpoints in the protests, a core of mostly freelance, left-wing, and Native American outlets have remained at the site to provide daily coverage.

Several of those journalists are facing charges, including trespass and engaging in riots, after being caught in mass arrests as police cracked down on protests or tried to clear camps in recent months. CPJ is aware of at least 10 journalists covering the story who are facing charges. Details of their cases can be seen here.

Journalists Covering Standing Rock Face Charges As Police Arrest Protesters
Funny considering that the reservation has since switched to a new source of water over 100 miles away so that was just fearmongering on that part.

And protesting for the environment? funny that they are concerned for the environment when they left all that trash and garbage behind when they finally left.

You need to understand the culture,to understand it wasn't about them.
I know.It was sad to see the way they left the place.They knew better and they should of set a much better example on how to treat the earth mother.There was no excuse for that.There is no group of people who walk perfectly.We are all imperfect humans.
Water and all things of the earth,hold to us a value,just as important as the monuments do to you.I'm trying to relate and show you I understand.Not argue with you.

Got a source on that? What I find on that is one nut job making the claim, no law enforcement or anyone else.

Interesting that we already know more about this guy than we do the Vegas shooter. Anything that doesn't comport with "the narrative" gets flushed down the memory hole.

The Vegas deal is pretty dirty. Not sure what they are covering up but it's really, really bad. He was laundering a metric ****ton of money, that much is clear.

This latest in a long line of clowns certainly had lots of red flags. He fits the "Antifa" profile, although it's tough to get details because their online accounts and internet postings get disappeared fast once something happens. Strange, eh? The nutcase who tried to take out the congressional republicans at baseball practice was another sort of coverup. Going back to Oswald at least to pick an arbitrary start point, it's clear that hardcore Leftists are absolutely bat**** crazy. Another moonbat socialist attacked Senator Paul (his neighbor, with a "hate has no home here" yardsign, natch) while the Sen. was mowing his lawn - broke five ribs.

What we need sensible Socialist control. Registration. What I like is how a lefty slaughters a few dozen normal folks on a seemingly routine basis these days, and the democrat politicians come out of the woodwork to lecture normal Americans that somehow we're the problem.

And, it's refreshing to hear Hollywood celebrities take time out of their busy schedule of raping each other and buggering children to lecture the rubes about how stupid it is for people to pray in response to the latest lefty outrage du jour.

i was waiting for something like this to happen with the latest investigation into the clintons involvement with election tampering.
every time there is an investigation into those murdering *** clowns, there is a conveniently placed mass shooting or terrorist attack to take attention away from the clintons.

Well he's not dead, afaik. You'll just have to pray harder I guess.

Although he was present at the baseball practice where someone tried to kill him there, too. So that's twice he's been attacked this year.
