I’ve followed developments in North Dakota starting back when oil spills did a number on the water that these people are dependent upon.   They came together to try and stop events that make their homes uninhabitable.   Excellent and dedicated people doing what you or I might do under similar circumstances.

I HIGHLY recommend this video.  I would love if every person in Canada and in the U.S. could see it. . . . violence engaged in by Muslims against the West.  (Terrorist)  It’s really just a term to legitimize the kind of violence that we do ourselves and de-legitimize the violence that is used against us. … WATCH:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iq2Hi_SD8pQ […]
