If I had unlimited flamethrower fuel , I ' d chase after the alien , laughing . <| sep |> You did well . You showed all of them that you aren ' t above everyone else . You are just like the common man . You are like Trump that anyone can empathize with . You just shouldn ' t be in power . Oh wait , it is rTheDonald . WTF are you getting downvoted ? !<| sep |> I see this constantly iPhone 6 here <| sep |> Probably 99 . 999 % of the pipeline is NOT overunder the river . If a leak happens , it ' ll probably to near certainty not be in the river . Still a risk I wouldn ' t be willing to take . Mainly because I wouldn ' t want any of the pipeline to leak , under the river or not . Depends on your definitions , I suppose . But trespassing , throwing rocks and sticks , starting fires , and possibly attempting to make IEDs to use on the cops . I don ' t think those things meet any reasonable definition of ' direct action ' or ' civil disobedience '. They are simply violence . Rioting . I think the situation has escalated to the point where some of those things are necessary . The police response , in my opinion , has been out of line . So I don ' t blame them for throwing things at the police , just like they have been getting shot with rubber bullets and hit with water cannons in freezing temperatures . And the fires were arguably started to keep themselves warm because of that . And , in my opinion , they ' re not trespassing because it is their treaty not reservation land . But that is also another discussion . Just putting my opinion out there on that . In general , I would classify trespassing as civil disobedience . The women with the arm she was from New York . This pipeline doesn ' t threaten her life . You ' re right . And it doesn ' t economically most of the people who are defending the pipeline . But people still get involved . It does threaten the people who live there and if others want to step in and help a people who ' ve already suffered enough at the hands of corporations and the government , I wouldn ' t turn them down . There are plenty of pipelines in the USA One of which is already buried right where this one is planned to go ! !, Just because one injustice wasn ' t stopped , that doesn ' t mean another should be allowed to proceed . Regardless if they protested the first one or not , which I haven ' t seen any evidence for or against that , their concerns for this pipeline are still very real .
