I wasn't able to post yesterday due to being at the mercy of Mother Nature and the power company.
Trump wants to get the pipelines back on the table, mainly the XL and the DAPL. Basically, I'm in favor of both projects, but with a major caveat: you just can't go running the pipelines through people's backyards. I don't care if they are "Indians" or not; you just don't do those things. And this is the last guy on the face of the earth who wants to hear it even one more time... they are not "just Indians." They are Native American human beings. They have no more desire to have a pipeline running through their cemeteries than you do.
So yes, build these pipelines; we need the need the energy. But reroute them away from the sacred lands and water supplies of the Standing Rock Sioux and other tribes. I have a feeling that the only reason the pipelines are slated to go where they are is because the white folks didn't want the pipelines going through their cemeteries and towns, so they deliberately and with knowledge aforethought engineered them to go through Native American lands.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
