Dakota Pipeline Protesters

The truth never comes out when it can make a difference, but I guess it's good that it comes out at some point.

From today's WSJ in regard to the Dakota pipeline protesters causing more environmental damage than what they are purporting to fix.

The Army Corps closed the area and said in a press release that grass has been destroyed or removed from some 50 acres. The mess has to be cleared out before a spring flood sends toxic sludge into the nearby Cannonball River and Lake Oahe, the same lake the protesters said would be polluted by the pipeline. Moral grandstanding can be a dirty business
