Pipeline protest

She is screaming about how unfair the pipeline is to the tribe because it runs a half mile away from the reservation yet she fails to mention how the original path was STRAIGHT THROUGH THE REZ and the tribe elders WELCOMED IT.

Yes, that's right! The tribe was gloriously happy to be getting a nice fat paycheck up front plus monthly royalties for the pipeline access then the elders got greedy. The elders started demanding so much more money that it was cheaper to move the path and buy a neighbor's farm. Then, AND ONLY THEN, did these "protests" start!

Amazing how it was all good until the tribe lost all that cash and the pipeline was REMOVED from their land then suddenly the tears started flowing BUT THEY KEEP THIS INFO QUIET!

SHAILENE if you are going to protest at least know the entire truth of the greed of this Indian tribe first!

Well she is free to leave the country at anytime. She says Thanksgiving needs to change because it is truly about the slaughter of Native Americans. Live on Facebook she said this. Since she is so upset with this Holiday she can leave her Hollywood paycheck and head to Canada.

It's all over the internet. It's true. Plus, where the pipeline crosses their water source is down-stream, so even if the pipeline burst (which is highly unlikely--they're running under the earth all over the place, as are natural gas pipelines) it wouldn't seep into their water source. It's also miles away.

If she feels so guilty about her ancestors she could always turn over her home to the nearest Native Americans before leaving the country.

Or she could STAY and help make the country better. But that would be too much for you triggered Trumpees, wouldn't it.

Breehimm, shailene is as liberal as they come. She is a Hillary fanatic and they were the ones claiming they'd leave the USA for Canada if Trump won so your comment about 'trumpees' shows your ignorance

And? The majority of them are staying to protest Trump. Your comment about liberals shows your ignorance.
