CANNON BALL, N.D. – Dakota Access oil pipeline protesters will not follow a government directive to leave the federal land where hundreds have camped for months, organizers said Saturday, despite state officials encouraging them to do so.

Standing Rock Sioux tribal leader Dave Archambault and other protest organizers confidently explained that they'll stay at the Oceti Sakowin camp and continue with nonviolent protests a day after Archambault received a letter from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers that said all federal lands north of the Cannonball River will be closed to public access Dec. 5 for "safety concerns."

The Corps cited the oncoming winter and increasingly contentious clashes between protesters, who believe the pipeline could harm drinking water and Native American cultural sites, and police.

Treaties only exist as long as they are respected by the signatories, and once violated they are null and void. Pretty much all of the Indian tribes involved violated the Fort Laramie treaty shortly after it was signed by actions against the US, settlers and one another. So did the US. Thus, no treaty.

The Standing Rock Sioux didn't start making their ridiculous claims to territory outside their reservation until this pipeline issue came up. Too late. Too bad, so sad, they had their chance to adjudicate the Fort Laramie treaty over a hundred years ago, and during the scoping and planning process with the BLM and didn't. So whatever rights they think they have they lost because they sat on them until they evaporated.

Tension is brewing within the Dakota Access protest as complaints grow about outside activists trashing the camps, mooching off donations, and treating the anti-pipeline demonstration like a Burning Man-style festival for hippies.

Standing Rock Sioux chairman David Archambault II, who is leading the protest, raised concerns about sanitation in a Nov. 23 interview with Vice, saying activists are “digging pits out there for their human waste.” “That’s a flood zone,” said Mr. Archambault, referring to camps on federal land along the Cannonball River. “So when the floodwaters come up, that waste is going to be contaminating the water. We’re no different than the oil company, if we’re fighting for water. What’s going to happen when people leave? Who has to clean it up? Who has to refurbish it? It’s going to be us, the people who live here.”

Trump will bring in the national guard to have the rioters arrested for felony destruction of property, then he is going to have the FBI raid the "organizations" providing the funding and support to the rioters and charge them under the RICO act.

Pipeline blocked. Trump will need to replace the head of the Army Corps of Engineers. But wait! That would be corrupt! He has invested in it:

Also, that chain of events is more likely to be the exception than the rule. Hopefully the protesters will be able to stop the pipeline from crossing the Missouri. At least at that location. Seven other pipelines have crossed it elsewhere already.
