In what could only be termed a potential gross violation of human rights, the Morton County Sheriff’s Department announced today it plans to block all supplies from entering Standing Rock camps — including deliveries of food.
Reuters reports: “Supplies, including food and building materials, will be blocked from entering the main camp following Governor Jack Dalrymple’s signing of an ‘emergency evacuation’ order on Monday, said Maxine Herr, a spokeswoman from the Morton County Sheriff’s Department.”
Herr flatly stated, according to Reuters, “They have deliveries, retailers that are delivering to them – we will turn around any of those services.”
Although the governor’s order went into effect immediately, North Dakota Department of Emergency Services spokeswoman Cecily Fong noted no deliveries to the camps had yet been turned away as of Tuesday morning.
However, ‘The building materials intended for the site are a top priority because the camp is not zoned for permanent structures,’ Reuters reported she said. ‘Propane tanks also will be blocked because they have been used in attacks against law enforcement.’
The latter claim has been proven false by eyewitness video from the night of November 20-21, when law enforcement assaulted peaceful water protectors for over six hours in a non-stop barrage of rubber bullets, tear gas, impact and concussion grenades, and even weaponized water — in temperatures dropping into the low 20s Fahrenheit. Sophia Wilansky’s arm was nearly ripped from her body when an impact grenade exploded. But the sheriff denies police used any weapon that could have caused such damage, despite evidence collected from the scene and by surgeons working to repair her traumatic wound.
Shortly after issuing the notice it would block supplies, the Morton County Sheriff’s Department backed away somewhat, saying it would take a passive role to try to prevent supplies from reaching the camps, by issuing hefty $1,000 fines for vehicles attempting such deliveries — saying it had interpreted the evacuation order as a reason for a blockade.
“That is the understanding that we had initially but we had to get that clarified,” Herr told Reuters. “The governor is more interested in public safety than setting up a road block and turning people away.”
This startling announcement of any attempt at a supply blockage from the Morton County Sheriff’s Department comes during a week of shocking news for Standing Rock Sioux water protectors and their allies camped near the Missouri River to block construction of the highly contentious Dakota Access Pipeline.
An eviction notice letter sent by the Army Corps of Engineers to Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Chairman Dave Archambault II and Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Chairman Harold Frazier on Friday sparked furious outrage from around the world — and was met with firm resistance from both tribes.
Clarifying later that no force would be used to effect this eviction, the Army Corps stated, “Those who remain will be considered unauthorized and may be subject to citation under federal, state, or local laws.”
Before the shock wore off from that letter, on Monday, North Dakota Governor Jack Dalrymple confounded matters further with the issuance of an emergency evacuation order for the same Army Corps-managed, water protector-occupied land as a winter storm advanced on the area.
Although neither U.S. government-issued order would apply had treaties from the 1800s been honored, the attorneys scrambled to determine if the governor’s evacuation supplanted the Army Corps’ eviction — as the date for the camps to become officially illegal would be moved forward significantly from December 5. Archambault denounced Dalrymple’s order as an intimidation tactic and determined it invalid.
However, the Morton County Sheriff’s Department appears to have opportuned the current evacuation order to escalate its curtailment of the basic human rights of the thousands of water protectors estimated to now occupy camps north of the Cannonball River.
Legally and technically speaking, both orders effectively close the camps — except for Sacred Stone Camp, located south of the river — to access by both the public and emergency services.
Thousands of veterans have been planning to arrive at the camps on December 4 to defend water protectors from brutal police tactics employed by the multi-state coalition of police led by the Morton County Sheriff’s Department — and they haven’t yet changed those plans.
According to an update from Reuters, Governor Dalrymple’s spokesman Jeff Zent said, “There is not going to be any blockade of supplies.”
While so much about these breaking developments remains unclear thanks to a lack of information from authorities and officials, one thing is certain. Blocking food and supplies, by any means, from reaching water protectors who have vowed to stay through the winter is not only a violation of human rights and basic decency — if effective, it has the potential to be an horrific tragedy in the making.

The guns are pointed at the wrong people. Stop corporate terrorism.
Agreed and this is happening more often than not
This entire story is an operation. Just like the Bundy, Oregon, yellowcake provocation. How many times does AP have to put like stories up multiple times before people realize that the “Activist Post” is an agency.
Evidence? Source? Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
You still here shill
Two errors in a 4 word troll….I offer my help.
You offer the same as you always have DISINFORMATION.
Give an example and provide evidence and source it is disinformation.
You are improving: only one error in your sentence tho it is not necessary to capitalize disinformation….it doesn’t make something true because you use caps. I wait your factual, sourced response.
Been there done that. You REFUSE to hear ANYONES evidence other than fake paid for “peer reviewed” BS
LSYGSDVOFBNRC VPNIW VG;
grammatical errors are far less grievous than poor ethical choices
I totally agree but the combination is lethal.
Interesting, I posted links to some “evidence” and AP has moderation enabled. Even though the links will probably be approved, censorship should always be a red flag to anyone that uses rational thinking.
I agree on censorship: I am banned at Townhall and Twitichy.
Please publish your sources if you have any that are credible. I require peer-reviewed research or media with a record of accuracy………I require evidence. Can you share?
That was a different guy that called you a shill, not me. I do not know enough about you to even have circumstantial evidence, let alone peer revue research. I hope your requirement for “peer-review” does not allow the peers of government funded institutions, like universities, laboratories and agencies because they make their living by presenting science fiction as fact.
To discern a shill from a brainwashed person is difficult. One believes with all their heart that the official story is true and, because of the pride in the heart, they will defend it to the death. The other depends on convincing others of the official narrative, in order to pay their bills. and thus they will almost equally defend it.
I have called out shills before, and usually when I do, I get censored and threatened from Google. I have been warned that they will take away my privileges of using their products and services, without any reason sited. Shills have a direct some access to use the Google authority to try to silence dissenters.
Well said.
Thank you. Only the strong are willing to admit their errors, and I confused that gentleman with you, who is paid to call me a shill.
RG8IOUTNMVU V;LGNF V;ijgfP
I apologize as I confused with your fellow mugger. I have edited out the error.
It was I who called you a shill. I called you a shill because you ARE a shill and you know it.
I have enough information to suggest that he is not a shill, but he appears to have set his heart to believe information that is not true and will accept it as false only if it can be proven within his comfortable litmus parameters. He displays more the character of a skeptic; which can be good in some instances and detrimentally destructive in others. This is my opinion from looking at what he says and how he says it.
I could be wrong
I’m sorry but dale IS a shill 100% and a very good one.
He has the style and earmarks of serving the SPLC. I’ve seen it before and mentioned this to him 3 or 4 times, he never denied it.
Probably unpaid is my guess. Voluntarily drinks the Kool-Aid if you get my drift….so [paid] shill is a gray zone.
He always claimed to be unpaid but yes I agree he still drinks the Kool-Aid.
Typically, they’re the most tenacious – as are we! 😉 Cheers.
Ha ha very true ! So we are 😉
Ah, I have become a ‘they” tho in reality I am a single retiree with a pension with a mission to learn, expose lies, and promote the truth based on evidence. I cannot be knocked over because I am telling the truth. I do not lie. But those who do think everyone lies.
My greatest downfall in life has been to assume others are honest as I am…and so I have been ripped off numerous times. “When you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything.” mark twain
Thanks for the fun.
Are you afraid to talk to me directly? I drink no kool aid, an independent free thinker since age 12. I expose those who do drink the kool aid provided by the Koch brothers, Brietbart, acitivistpost and other sponsors of junk science. Science is not kool aid so you are wrong.
Interesting.
Sorry, I taught the disabled. I made art. It is for you to prove, not for me to deny.
I have made it clear: I am retired on a pension as my only income. Whatever lies to throw miss and boomrang back on your. I am totally transparent: what is your educational background, your science background, your research background, your employer, etc. I have told only the truth; now it’s your turn.
Well,no. I wish I were paid for my writing but instead I enjoy the satisfaction of learning and sharing what I learn. I will accept donations? Whom do you work for?
eareryuctbrweYWERTU
You agree on censorship but say nothing about attacks on free speech over climate change “heresy”?
Hmm strange that. Censorship is rife ATM dale ruff has been here for years pouncing on anyone who speaks Truth then demands peer reviewed bullshit as evidence.
And when I ask for evidence, I am always told: I already gave it. I applaud anyone who backs their comments with evidence and urge you to provide evidence and stop claiming you been there done that. I recall you gave a scientist as a source, and I looked her up, and she totally refuted you, since she said I believe in Global Warming and human contribution but don’t know how much. When your own sources contradict your claims, that is not Truth and it is not evidence. So I await credible evidence, tho since you have none, you will find an excuse (I gave it to you!)…..now I base my thinking on evidence so clearly, your failed efforts don’t count. I would like an intelligent discussion…you prefer to call names and find reasons not to support your assertions.
What is better than peer-reviewed studies? Why do you call something of which you are totally ignorant bullshit. Could that be fear of the Truth?
Bad science in time gets cought. Peer review is not just at publication, but young scientists and scholars all over the world know they can make their careers by finding flaw in accepted research…and this is why science has worked, without a central committee or centralized control, for hundreds of years, giving , the internet, cures for diseases, space flights, etc, all built on peer-reviewed studies.
Anyone who hates science will condemn it. That makes you a perfect useful idiot for the corporate propagandists as well as anti-science politicians bought by the corporations. Bad government science has been the result of corporate take over of agencies like USDA .
You can choose peer-reviewed information or propaganda. Your choice.
I wait your answer to better sources of information than peer-reviewed. I expect you will find an excuse………….you always do. Prove me wrong.
Its not just me shill check it out you have pissed everyone off for YEARS with your disinformation ! If you think writing a book like you just have hides the FACT that you are a paid disinfo agent then once again You are wrong. Oh and you seem to remember I said what ? LMFAO I said no such thing shill. Carry on spreading your Lies but we all know who you are 🙂
‘What is your source that I have provided disinformation: is the Berkeley Earth Project and the Exxon studies on global warming I have urged you to study constitute disinformation? What is your evidence for that?
You laughable assertion that I am paid to report the truth is comic relief. Is name calling all you have. I take that as an admission of your inability to defend your views rationally, backed by evidence. Try again.
Or maybe NOT I have better things to do with my time than trying to educate a shill.
I am not a shill, as you well know; and I have awaited the evidence that will educate me, asked for it many times. Please present: I thrive on learning. It is my great joy in life. You have spent hours calling me a shill; it would take much less to provide the evidence to persuade me. I await.
Dyed in the wool globalist ideologue who in the past would resort to base name calling exchanges with the lowest common denominators in order to to feel superior. That’s why we need to be Kontrolled? Cause and effect lost in the miasma of elite social engineering.
I have spent a life and written many articles denouncing the globalists like the Koch brothers and Trump. See my article at opednews on Trump’s use of slave labor and avoidance of all taxes. “Only the poor pay taxes.”
The global corporate elites are seeking to control you; that is why I expose their lies and report the truth. I am an anarchist of the libertarian socialist strain, with roots going back to the 17th century Levelers. Look it up. No one is more anti-globalist.
You are desperate to attack me but I agree with your view of the globalists. I agree with your view of 9/11. That may explain why you are totally irrelevant for you assume people who agree with you are the enemy: madness!
5 errors in your first sentence, which is a logical fallacy as it makes a false claim followed by another false claim. Present the evidence, friend. Insults and libel are cheap. You know I am a 75 yr old cancer victim on a teacher’s pension but you lie to refute because you cannot present any evidence. I pity you. I would suspect that you are paid by the Koch brothers to smear those spreading climate science and the need to curb pollution……shill shill shill………….I hear you lying. who am I: Dale Ruff,artist, teacher of the disabled, journalist. But the more I tell the truth, them more you lie and make accusations based on nothing but fear of the truth. Now, what is your age, background, education, research experience, and credibility based on?
You have called me a shill perhaps 30-40 times: “A lie repeated over and over will be believed by the ignorant.” Adolph Hitler.
To those who hold lies as true, those who tell the truth or expose their lies are hated.
That is why the Nazis burned books, why whistleblowers are not rewarded but punished, etc.
To You – shill – complete waste of time.
You are so filled with lies and hatred you attack people even when they agree with you. That is suicidal. Seek help. I have wasted hours detailing evidence, even agreeing with you, and yet you are ruled by hatred which causes you to attack with lies. Please never ever address me again. I have tried my best to make friends with you based on agreement on 9/11, globalizaiton, etc, but you are full of poison which prevents you from any alliance not based on gang hatred and abuse.
You keep saying please never address me again – YET HERE YOU ARE ?
“Please note that Dale Ruff trolls Activist Post to aggressively shout down skeptics of the Establishment’s position on climate change. He thinks mandatory vaccinations are fine and criticizes skeptics of official vaccine scientism. He also harasses threads on Geoengineering, saying there is no such thing as a chemtrail, we are all delusional. He believes the UN blueprint for human rights (which emphasizes collectivism over individual liberties) is perfect and he never ever criticizes the globalist Rockefellers but the globalist Kochs are fair game (see the dialectic here?). Notice how he attacks generally held understandings of Putin’s past that are not recorded in the official academic record but he COMPLETELY ignores the far more important work done by Sutton. Just as not many Americans know about Antony Sutton’s critically important research, few will dig even deeper to understand the Deep State here or anywhere else. Using Dale’s logic, we all should accept the official fairy tale of 9/11 because the “experts” in almighty government and academia don’t challenge the Big Lies.”
9/11 is a huge subject. The brainwashed do not want to logically discuss what actually took place that day, However, those that have been contracted by the United States Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, will usually hold strong on the official narratives to “shout down” dissent and present scripted responses that are standard. The contractors can move up in levels and pay according to their success. I think that they get a fairly minuscule reimbursement until they can prove their value.
It is a performance based reimbursement program
I agree.The 9/11 Commission says the government lied to them. We need to have an investigation to find out who lied, why, what they were covering up, and then prison for all. Now call me a shilll or agree with me.
We’re still waiting for the CIA to be held accountable for the assassination of JFK. Warren Commission: Arlen Specter’s magic bullet explanation. Ha! History may not repeat but it rhymes.
I totally agree but the CIA will not release the records as it shows them guilty. I just bought Mary’s Mosaic: the CIA conspiracy go murder JFK. Do you still have the emotional need to call me names? We agree on more than you would allow by constantly seeking to destroy me (which you cannot, as you have learned). Better to find common ground as our enemies want us fighting each other.
Get a grip, Dale, I don’t use ad hominems. Though, I am certain you are not opposed to globalization, esp. Rockefeller & UN style via Agendas 21 and 2030, nor have you elucidated Technocracy.
You are still using ad hominem as in “Get a grip, Dale.” I am totally opposed to globalization, as I have said above and frequently write critically about it. See my article at opednews on globalist Trump, with businesses in 22 nations, loans from the Bank of Russia, Bank of China, etc, and using slave labor in several nations.
Agenda 21 is a voluntary, non-binding set of proposals and not part of global capitalism but indeed a proposal to dilute it by providing more rights for women and children (who often work for a few dollars a day, as with the women in the garment factories who work for Trump for $60 a month), protection for the environment which the global fossil fuel industry is destroying, and providing a more equitable distribution of wealth, which will stabilize population, since nations with economic security all have birth rates at or below replacement levels, while the highers birth rates as in central Africa are with the poorest people on earth.
If you define technocracy i will give you my views, but assuming that I support things I do not such as the official 9/11 story, or globalization, is a lie, as I have in this discussion made my views clear and found agreement with with you and others, who do insult me which you do not denounce.
I have opposed globalization probably longer than you have been alive, since I have been against it for 55 years and made by views clear in protests, writing, and of this very site. I totally oppose globalists like the Koch bros and Trump, who buy politicians to oppose laws to regulate their pollution, their use of slave labor, and their avoidance of taxes. Agnnda 21 is a response to the growing devastation and inequality caused by globalization, but the globalists sponsor propaganda to make it a monster because it proposes regulation of pollution, more equitable wealth distribution, and banning slave labor, all of which are the basis of globalist wealth.
People who fall for this propaganda and attack not the causes but the solutions are referred to as “useful idiots” as they support causes which actually do them harm. See Frank’s The Trouble with Kansas, which analyzes which Kansans, who once were the cutting edge of radical populism, now support politicians and policies (seduced by wedge issues) which have impoverished them.
Kansans are waking up to the lies and damage: ” At least 11 conservative state lawmakers in Kansas, including many allied with Republican Gov. Sam Brownback, were ousted in a primary election Tuesday, in a rebuke of tea-party advocates who had pushed through tax cuts that many viewed as endangering public-school funding……Beginning in 2012, amid sharp divisions among GOP lawmakers, the legislature reduced the state’s top income-tax rate by 25% and eliminated a tax on small-business income. The Brownback-supported cuts were intended to jump start Kansas’ economy and help it compete with states like Texas, but instead the state has sputtered by many measures.
At the time, the governor’s economic strategy was viewed by many as a national experiment in whether state-level tax cuts could stimulate economic growth. Other Republican governors, in states like Oklahoma and Ohio, have proceeded more cautiously with income-tax cuts.
Last year, amid plunging state revenue and depleted reserves, lawmakers boosted sales taxes to erase a $400 million budget deficit. The budget woes have continued this year, with the state being forced to temporarily withhold $260 million from public schools and use money from a highway fund, among other moves, to balance the budget.” Wallstreetjournal.com
My articles denouncing globalization are public record. What have you done to oppose it other than to lie about my position (I am certain you are not opposed to globalization” is a lie, sir. I would ask that you apologize for lying about me, far worse than name-calling.). In fact, I urge you to join me and others in opposing globalization through protests, writing, and other ways, exposing the lies of men like the globalists Koch brothers, Trump, et al and revolting against the corporate globalists who are behind the lies about Agenda 21, which is voluntary, non-binding, and designed to create a more equal world (60 billionaires have more wealth than 3.5 billion people, hundreds of millions of whom are starving, tens of milliions dying of malnutrition yearly. You have been duped by the globalists to demonize a proposal to solve the problems of globalization: environmental devastation, slave labor, starvation, etc.
I have had a solid grip on the evidence for over 50 years. I urge you to revolt against those lying to you and using you and join the real struggle against globalization as a race to the bottom.
I had forgotten what an annoying little cretin dale is. It really is a waste of time trying to reason with it. I’m sure hes reading this so do yourself a favor shill and stop writing me books – I’m too thick to understand what with my poor education and all.
I’ve been at this almost 14 years, woke up after 9/11 in my early 30s, I feel like an “old veteran” having “seen it all” now. lol You probably know there is an aggressive and concerted effort to fracture what remains of the awake community via Sunstein-style Cognitive Infiltration and a mega storm of diverging views using what’s termed nonlinear disinformation. Unfortunately, most onlookers don’t understand what’s happening regarding compartmentalized mind traps.
censorship central I cannot see replies. Truth hurts.
Truth only hurts if you are in denial; to those with an open and critical mind the Truth is liberating.

The major climate skeptic was hired by the climate deniers Koch brothers and he found the government date was solid and that there is no other logical explanation than human activity. I urged you to read about the Berkeley Earth Project and read Dr. Muller’s oped at the NYTimes about what his team of climate scientists on the skeptical side found. Have any of you read it?
I have informed you that in 1981, Exxon scientists “discovered” global warming an an empirical fact with fossil fuel production the main cause. Exxon buried their own research and funded lies that their won studies refuted. Have you read the information on the Exxon studies? Anyone?
I have used the same skepticism at unsupported propaganda claims about climate change in my articles pointing out that the government lied about 9/11, according to the 9/11 Commission, and join with others–I hope you as well–for an independent investigation of who lied, why, what they were covering up and prosecution for those who lied. I came to this conclusion based on evidence, just as my views on global warming are entirely based on evidence.
Then I would get that “evidence” checked out or better still look elsewhere.
Would you ask a diesel mechanic about diesel motors or mock him as an “expert?”
Would you submit your “evidence” to peer review?
Scientists do. Where elsewhere would you look; what system of review is better than scientific peer-review. You have dodged this at least 3 times: it is the critical question: where can be get the most reliable information?

That was an old quote of mine, found by a remarkable sleuth (kudos), though the Koch right winger boogeyman meme is so full of holes I’m amazed it lasted as long as it did. Earthwatch and Aspen Institute board of directors, the Kochs funding a major get out the Hispanic vote for Hillary, their father Stalin’s buddy? Oh my.
I am the only non-aggressive person here using logic and evidence, questions, and standard English, while others call me names, shout, etc etc. I do not shout down: I present evidence and ask for yours. I sense you might be projecting your anger at me for refusing to be crude or aggressive…..
Take a look at dale ruffs comments, just type in Google dale ruff and watch what happens. “I am the only non-aggressive person here using logic and evidence” – says dale. Google says otherwise.
I have been asking all of you to read my articles. Google says nothing but lists my articles, which are attacks on globalism, racism, etc. You are adding lie upon lie: those who live by lies die by lies. I am assertive in my views, because they are based on evidence and 55 years of study and reflection. I am not aggressive, as that is using force, which I reject in my life, refusing even to eat meat and have spent a life opposing racial injustice, criminal wars, and globalist exploitation. Assertion is a right; aggression is unethical. The 50 times you have called me a shill are 50 cases of aggression thru the crime of libel.
You are seeking to humiliate me because you feel humiliated by being exposed as a liar…….you pile hatred on hatred……seeking to rally your tiny group of haters to attack me more. This is an admission of failure as an intellectual and human being.
You can be helped but not until you stop hating. I have offered common ground and you have responded not with joy in finding agreement but in hatred because you seem to need to hate……………….”Paranoia runs deep; it starts when your home isn’t free…” CSNY
My philosophy is “unconditional compassion,” which requires active resistance to evil.
Please stop hating and leave me alone. I do wish you well but ask you kindly not to address me again. Thank you.

You can stop talking to me now I really don’t want to talk to a Liar like yourself, you are contaminating my brain with your NonSense. Goodbye.
This comment was addressed to yourself…just so you know. LOL
I would like to see individuals respond to me instead of making comments about me to your gang. I am a student of the Deep State. See my critical essays a opednews.
Even when I agree with you, you denounce me to your comrades. I suggest we work together with civility and standards of intellectual honesty to find the truth rather than throwing word bombs even when I am on your side.
There is no “official academic record” of Putin. I have been away from the university for 50 years and in that time have used the entire universe of knowledge as my library.
What would you like to tell me about the Rockefellers that I didn’t learn years ago.
I write much longer and detailed posts than anyone and yet what I write is misunderstood or ignored and I am criticized for not writing about………….everything.
That is why I urge you to read my articles since that will give you an an accurate view of my views.
I reject the lies about 9/11 and have written about it if you care. I ask you to read my articles so you don’t make such blunders….but I judge you are afraid to find the truth so you proclaim you already have it, tho you present no evidence and thus can be dismissed without further ado. I oppose global capitalism from Columbus to Trump. I write against it. I study it. And yet you accuse me of being an apologist.
That, if anything, would indicate that you are being paid to lash out………or are you just poorly educated? At any rate, you are wrong about me…….time after time.
We cant all be wrong dale. I have had issues with you in the past regarding Geoengineering where you refuse to admit its existence. You call Me a Liar for using my own eyes ? quoting “peer reviewed” (paid for) science as if that Trumps my own eyesight ! Where I live do you know we had only TWO WEEKS of Sunshine in 2016 Is that normal ? Is it “normal” to watch plane after plane white out an Entire sky ? Or to rain so heavy every single day that the ground is flooded – except for Two weeks in August ? Or what about growing food, that should be doable right ? Wrong NOTHING is growing here I have tried and failed to grow anything in this engineered climate. what about the poor birds, is it “normal” to see dead birds everywhere ? Dying trees ? I am not getting into this with you – been there done that – And I am Autistic Not “poorly educated”
Who is We? I accept the findings of 99.9% of the world’s climate scientists. The only We that matters in science is not the public, or leaders, but scientiists who review each other’s work. I report that geo-engineering is a proposal with some limited experiments beyond seeding clouds. It has nothing to do with contrails, and I based this on what a atmospheric scients say. When you see trails in the sky, you may believe they are poisoning you, and that is paranoia, not lying. You are believe liars who have spent tens of millions to confuse the scientifically untrained. I have limited training which is why I accept the word of real researchers.
As for abnornal weather, that is what the climate scientists have been saying about the disruptions caused by global warming. It is normal if you viewing a flight path to see trails when the planes are above 30,000 in freezing temps where the moisture of jet emissions (which is polluted) freezes. I asked you to do your own research and compare the planes you see with the flight plan maps. Did you do that? I also asked you to see if you ever saw contrails lower than the cirrus cloud level, such as at or below the cumulous or rain cloud altitude, which would be used for targeting. Did you do that?
Do you understand that pollution is easily explained as the cause of poisoning the soil, the water, and the atmosphere; it kills tens of millions a year. You are begging the question assuming and “seeing” what you want to see rather than educating yourself by studying climate and atmospheric science and understanding the empirical basis for their conclusions based on research.
Dead birs, dying trees: ask the Koch brothers, Exxon, the coal companies who have been poisoning for centuries. They are not only poisoning us but they are creating myths like chemtrails and AWG is hoax to block regulation of the poison they spew and the results of which you see. They also charge you, in terms of more polluted air and water and soil, for the damage they do through higher insurance costs and higher taxes.
You say you are not poorly educated but you said peer-review is bullshit. Only a poorly educated, with no background in science, would make such a comment, a kind of admission of willful ignorance. I have taught the autistic: that is no excuse for insulting me or denying science. All this stuff in your head is not autism but junk science you have learned off junk science websites.
Dale, you seem like a reasonable person, so I will appeal to your ability to understand how corporations and institutions get their funding and consider that there really is criminal corruption that takes place at all levels of institutions, public and private. The easiest way to get to the bottom of almost every crime, is to “follow the money.” The love of money motivates people much more than truth or integrity.
Science, by definition is the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment.
The single most common, unobservable and non-reproducible “fact” that come from the academic halls of “science” is evolution. I want to ad links here, but Activist Post has censored them many times before, so if you are willing to search out these documentaries and investigate the claims that are presented, you would be noble and show objectivity in your worldview. Critical thinking and reasonable educated discussions are welcomed.
Here is what I would ask you to search on YouTube :”The Genesis theory part one” by White Rabbit; “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed” by Ben Stein;
If you are brave enough and really wanting to get into the deeper subjects to “debunk” accusations of criminal corruption at the highest levels of governments and corporations, check out “9/11 Masterminds: Explosive Connections”
In this world where deception takes place at every level of society, it is a wise and noble venture to investigate and discover the truth behind every single thing that a person believes, because what we believe directly effects our worldview and how we make decisions.
That is IF you are noble and brave enough to spend half the time investigating as your spend typing. 🙂
Please do check out my channel “Church: A Not-For-Prophet Corporation” I also have many discussions specifically targeting the direct lies that are commonly believed by religious people. I am a man of science, facts and truth. I have discovered that emotions have a lot to do with a person believing lies, so it is difficult for most people to lay aside their emotions and their beliefs to investigate the facts.
Cheers.
I have written about corporate fascism and the hijacking of government in many articles. Are you suggest evolution is not an observable fact? Biologists observe it mutating and a good example was when the coal fired factories in 19th century England turned the whitish tree bark black with soot. The moths mutated and the white moths (for camoflage on white bark turned black; when the pollution was cleaned up. they mutated back to white to hide on the white bark. Evolution as a process is an empirical fact.
Evolution as a theory has become only stronger over the years. A theory is an explanation that fits all the facts and has no counter facts.
The higher level of evolution, according to Darwin, was co-operation. Animals and communities which co-operate have a higher chance of survival.
I studied physical anthropology with a Dr. Washburn, one of the great minds of his field. Where did you study evolution?
I was wrong about the possibility that you are a reasonable person that would actually investigate opposing information. I gave you some documentaries to look up. If you find any proof that any of the information that is written therein is false, then please do share.
According to you, your great great great great grand dad was slime and he came from a rock, billions of years ago in a galaxy far far away…..
There is good and there is evil. every man has committed evil against God and against His creation. There is a coming judgment and no man can stand innocent of sin against the Almighty God. God is just and will not allow one evil work to go unpunished. Because He truly loves us, He provided a way in which we might escape the eternal penalty for our crimes. He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ to come to the earth in the form of a man to walk perfectly without ever sinning. He became the sin of mankind so that the wrath of God that is due us, was satisfied upon HIM. He went to the grave and He did rise from the dead three days later. He ascended into heaven to make intercession for us unto the Father and to show mercy to all men that will but call upon His name. He is going to return soon and He shall indeed destroy the wickedness of mankind in a very dark day of destruction…coming soon to an earth near you;)
I recommend actually checking those videos out thoroughly and hopefully before you breathe your last breath, turn to the Lord with a contrite heart and really cry out to the Father. He forgives all sin, except blasphemy against the Holy Ghost. Most atheists have not come to that point.
I saw that you mentioned that you have cancer. I am sorry to read that. I do not know what type or stage, I hope it is non aggressive and early. Please also look into Vitamin B17 and alkalinity in the body.
I personally met a senior professor of medicine at Purdue Lafayette that admitted that she was aware of B17 and many other natural things that not only prevent cancer, but fight it effectively. She is not allowed to have her staff teach the students about these things because it is injurious to the financial capital of the “Industry.” Cancer is the largest money maker.
I hope you look into all things that I have claimed here and hopefully, at the very least, kick the cancer through the means which God provided, because He really does love us.
Cannabis is also a cure for Cancer but dale doesn’t believe in all that. I know for a fact it works, I have seen it with my own eyes, but dale will still dispute that because its the Truth and that hurts him.
WE are ALL the people who have been unfortunate in trying to get any sense out of you. Thats it. I refuse to read anymore of your Books/Lies because I value my time. As for you being a 75 year old with Cancer AND ? Your point is what ? You ARE a cancer to the Truth WEAR IT.
“What is better than peer-reviewed studies?” Peer reviewing is flawed just as humanity is flawed – profit motives, group think, and institutional inertia are not immune to the peer review circle-jerk distortion process. Vioxx anyone?
Peer-review is not perfect but it is self-correcting. What is better?
It’s not self correcting when the foundation is corrupt, it perpetuates myths. Transparency of all manner, the brightest lights and no blind worship of “experts” – they should be benevolent guides, not self-delusional snobs.
That’s a non sequitur; clearly self-correction is not instant and sometimes takes many years, as young scientists pour over “established science” looking for errors. Sooner or later, bad science is exposed by good science.
Self-correction is over time, after pre-publication peer-review; it may takes months or years, sooner or later, the errors are exposed….and that is why science has been so successful for so long and why we are able to communicate over the internet.
Corrupt foundations like Monsanto try to control research but note that recently, they have been losing the argument and the IARC of WHO totally refutes their biased research…this is self-correction, not by the corporation but by scientists outside: the UN study of glyphohosate as carcinogenic was done by 18 scientists from 11 nations, with no vested interest in making Monsanto Happy for a bright pay day.
Peer review and self-correction eliminate blind worship of experts as science is filled with examples of experts being proved wrong and better science replacing bad science. What better system has ever been devised that continuous peer review and self-correction.????? Cynnicism is not a system. What better system exists or has been more successful? That’s a simple question and since you so disagree with me, you must have the system at hand.
I can’t like your comment twice
You’re a beacon of light, nochipforme, your ‘upvotes’ count for at least 1000 of the sleepers.
It says there is a comment but I am unable to see it…. Censorship of Truth.
Lies are also censored it is called the libel law.
It must have been your comment then.
I do not lie. I report on science and scholarship and so I have no reason to lie or resort to insults.
Harvard and Berkeley educations in political science and not a peep about the research of Carroll Quigley and Antony Sutton, or the steady march towards a global authoritarian technocracy (which Eisenhower warned us of in the same well known speech he spoke about the rise of a M.I.C.). Instead of helping us connect the dots, he calls us uniformed and paranoid “right wing” conspiracy theorists.
I have just posted your quote about the shill dale ruff. I hope you don’t mind.
Hey, let’s gang up on shill Dale. We have no evidence to refute him so lets mug him! Whoopeee. Thank you for the entertainment.
You are welcome.
Those who spread hatred are the first to die from it, as hatred is a poison.
Open source knowledge, that’s my passion. 😉
I know right, all the while spreading disinformation, dale ruff is a cancer to the Truth.
That’s a kind thing to say to a 75 yr old with cancer, who spends his time studying and reporting on objective truth. You have yet to provide evidence of my disinformtion and continue to libel me. Why are you so filled with hatred?
Provide the information I am lacking and I will thank you. I have written dozens of articles about creeping fascism, now full-blown with Trump. See my recent articles at Quora and opednews. I ask for evidence and leave the name calling to you.
We’ve had this waltz before, Dale, and it always leaves something to be desired knowing full well that you have the “world class education” (as you refer to your Harvard days) to dig deeply into all that I touched on in my short paragraph. One would think intellectual curiosity would have compelled you to do so many years ago. That’s your choice, but to pretend there isn’t important context there is disingenuous, imo.
Did you read the Berkeley Earth Project and the Exxon studies, as I recommended? No..hmnnnn. I only mention my education when someone says I am obviously uneducated. That’s fair, isn’t it.
As for the people you mention, I have read them and I have railed for all my life against the MIC. ” all that I touched on in my short paragraph.”
Mentioning a name is not evidence: evidence is historical examples or data that can be checked. I have read your sources (long before you) and found them right on some issues, wrong on others. I use critical skills to separate the speculative from the empirical. What particular ideas, since both men wrote on many subjects, do you claim I denounce?
I can’t respond to a name….give me the information and I will respond. Otherwise, you are just throwing out names with no context, and I refuse to descend to your level of name-calling. Instead of telling me (and you are usually wrong) what I think, ask me. I am asking you to provide evidence of disinformation I spread with sources and what part of Quigley and Sutton ( I studied with the late Samuel Huntington who wrote The Clash of Civilizations turned him down when he asked me to be his research assistant) do you want me to respond to. I am looking for civil intelligent discussion of issues…..so just ask or provide the info you want to know my views of. And please read the Earth Project and Exxon studies……no intelligent conversation is possible without dealing with these critical studies, funded by the fossil fuel industry. Ok?
Have you read the sources I have recommended who come from the skeptical side and so ought to interest you????No?????
You didn’t reveal your education to me because I accused you of being uneducated. That’s not my style. You were cozying up to compare academic interests…you intimated as much younger man, you knew about the Trilateralist Commission and their long term agenda.
Focusing exclusively on the MIC is a form of a limited hangout, and a dangerous one at that. We can see the end game coming into view observing China’s Social Credit Score system. All dissent silenced in an uber Orwellian control grid.
From the WSJ 11/28/16: “The national social-credit system’s aim, according to a slogan repeated in planning documents, is to “allow the trustworthy to roam everywhere under heaven while making it hard for the discredited to take a single step.”
You may be lying but someone said I was uneducated and so I shared my top rate education, which I earned, since both parents only graduated 8th grade. What is your education background and science resume?
Blue 579 does NOT lie …watch your mouth DR
Look I am not sure what this public Spectacle is about but I DO KNOW ITS not about STANDING ROCK!
You’re exactly right, which is one reason I tried to limit my responses here even though D.R. sent another 10 long replies to me. Although, the Infowar and what Standing Rock represents is very much a part of a powerful organized undercurrent being actively exposed by in-depth researchers and some people are sensitized to and pro-active in heading off sources of disinfo that appear to side step the Big Picture.
I am beginning to see that now.
Troll for the MSM.
LOL Thanx 🙂
i see the same.
This is a siege, an act of war against American citizens and the native people from whom the land was originally stolen: Let this be the beginning of a national worldwide resistance.
siege
sēj/Submit
noun
a military operation in which enemy forces surround a town or building, cutting off essential supplies, with the aim of compelling the surrender of those inside.
When those assigned to protect our rights are used to deny them, we invoke the right of revolution, as justified in our founding document, the Declaration of Independence.
This is exactly what President Bush signed into law, in the patriot Act, shortly after that bogus 9/11.
Make a drop via plane or chopper.
It’s a “no fly zone.” They would intercept any aircraft before it could get overhead. Make the second amendment seem a bit impotent, eh?
Is this cowardly call for murder?
I was referring to a food drop. What in the world did you think I was referring to?
I misunderstood. A drop could be dropping dissenters from planes, as Pinochet and others have done. Apologies…..mea culpa.
Peaceful protest at the North Dakota Capitol building, allowing Water Protectors to stay put… Anyone with me?!?!
The headline photo is funny. The date is November 30. That area has been under snow for over a week now, so we know that the photo is not as recent as the headline. AP does a lot of sensational recycling of imagery.
But aside from the deceptive sensational tactics that they use, consider this:
A state of emergency has been declared and you are trying to get your family away from the chaos of the city, so you go out into the country and as you are driving down a country road and you crown a hill, you see off in the distance, this large blockade (pictured above) of militarized police along with an intercepting helicopter. Would you find comfort knowing that these “law enforcement officers” have your family’s best interests in their duty? Would you turn around?
This comment is not about the issue itself…. But if people want the right to blockade as protest (as they should) then they must expect the same methodology will be used against them – common sense really…
Where is the civil disobedience with those in ‘uniform’ enforcing these unconstitutional ‘laws’? It is beyond my comprehension that so many of them are all too willing to participate in the gross injustice and undeniable human rights violations.
So here we have it dale will only ALLOW you to post here if he agrees with it ????
“Please leave me alone, as you are making me sick”.my sentiments exactly. Please Do NOT talk to me unless you discover some Truth. You are a danger to everyone out there with your deceit/disinformation. Please find it in your heart to be honest.
