#NODAPL activists arrested after trying to shut off 5 oil pipelines carrying 15% of U.S. daily oil

You forgot to actually say, “I’m concerned.”

@lolipop_jones: I support this, because oil bad. It’s almost a textbook-perfect example of civil disobedience. Nobody was hurt, and it’s clear the actors were not lucky but careful. It would have been much easier to just blow up the pipelines, but it’s clear NoDAPL was careful to avoid both injuries and oil spills. The damage is almost entirely symbolic and easily reversed. The one thing I don’t know is if the protesters willingly faced arrest. I hope so.
