[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 190785, member: 3373"] From my perspective about the TM support of NoDAPL it was minimal. There are always going to be people who jump on a bandwagon but it wasn't very visible in the northern part of the state. Kind of like 3 Affiliated's support. From what I heard on the radio it was basically, "We will support the SR tribe." It was never support of the DAPL protesters. There is a difference. I don't know how the current situation will shake out but it's in turmoil right now. No one knows who for sure is in charge or who is making decisions. Don't know the full cause but do know that when this council took over they were deeply in debt and overspending. Serious cuts were made that left workers out of a job. Of course that offends them so now it's the council's fault. From there it went on to this. Truth is it might be the previous councils fault as much as anyone's. In this case, again everyone on the reservation is being placed in the same group. As is the case everywhere there are a lot of good people on that reservation that are being cast in a bad shadow because of the actions of a few. Like all politics they and us need to get back to electing those who will serve our best interests, not how much they can give us. Big difference. [/QUOTE]
