    I was hoping California would pass a bill like this one so that the medical golf cart driver could run over that loser Colin Kaepernik next season should he continue kneeling during the National Anthem.

      Jack, a very poorly worded title to this article. One might think that a protestor had been killed, not the bill.

      By the way, I am sure we will see Darryl Hannah before long lying down in the ditch to block the pipeline. The last time, she was hauled off to jail to cool her heels. Then, she high tailed it back to California to join her sore loser friends.

        No, actually, most everyone wouldn’t think that, Comrade Agent. You see, grammar teaches us that one protestor ‘dies’ while multiple protestors ‘die’. Kind of like i45 lies. Conway, Spicer, and Miller, well, they lie. Not only that, the subject of the title is the ‘bill protecting drivers’, and the verb, which is ‘dies’, refers back to the subject. Happy to help!

          No. The title is referring to this guy named Bill. You see he was trying to protect those drivers who hit the protesters. Sadly, he died. In North Dakota no less.

    I live in North Dakota and I believe these protests are nothing more then a ploy for attention, and greed on the part of the Standing Rock Counsel. The reservation was offered millions of dollars by the pipeline for it to go through the reservation. The counsel refused, so when the pipeline rerouted, that’s when the protest started. In addition these protesters have come from all over the US, they have stole from the good people of my state, and they have tried to intimidate innocent people and law enforcement. The one sided reports on the national news outlets disgusts me. They report on how horrible the protesters are treated by authorities, but not how the farmers, ranchers, and rural residents are terrorized by the protesters. Now that the protesters are leaving, they have left behind camps that have been described as being as bad as a war zone. The Bismarck Tribune has several articles about the cleanup efforts. 250+ truckloads of garbage that need to be cleaned up and taken to the dump. This doesn’t exactly sound like the kind of people who are really concerned with the environment if you ask me. Many in North Dakota are relieved that for the most part the protests are winding down, but the cost to my state has been great. Morton County alone has to burden $20 million of debt to pay for law enforcement. Not to mention the repairs to a bridge with extensive damage my state will have to pay for. To all the protesters: Come back again when you don’t have so much time on your hands, and don’t let the door hit your @$$ on the way out.

      NDAgent, I feel bad people living in the area for all the trouble from outside protestors. However, I can’t agreed on the pipeline. For too long the US Government have taken from the Native Americans in this country. It is wrong to force the issue even if somebody has offered to pay. It is wrong to keep infringing in the rights of the Native Americans. With this situation, it comes down to money/profits for private companies vs the rights of tribe’s people.

        Ohio Agent: not sure why you feel bad for the indians, but not for other law abiding Americans that lose land every day to eminent domain. These protests are nothing more than ploys for attention, and as to the pipeline itself, it will be one among hundreds of others already in existence here in the US of A. The indians don’t any more ‘own’ that land than you or I do.

          Jax, I do feel bad for anybody losing land by eminent domain when the land is taken and given or sold to businesses to make money. Nowhere in my post does it say that I don’t been bad. Eminent domain was originally established to take land for public use such as road construction, etc. However, I don’t feel back for business owners whom use political influences to take by eminent domain.

            Your original post only lamented the Indian’s predicament – hard to come to any other conclusion.
