ABOUT THAT FBI INVESTIGATION INTO STANDING ROCK

It was since been reported that not only is the FBI investigating Standing Rock activists but also environmentalists in general. 

Perhaps you don't remember under Bill Clinton environmentalists were jailed in secret prisons in the Midwest. They were denied access to lawyers and reading or writing materials. 

Be Craeful 350.org and Bill McKibben.

I think the case of Ben Ward triggered the larger probe. Ward turned off the valves in various pipelines and was brought to trial on vandalism but in his trial he pleaded this was his nonviolent protest against climate change. The judge refused his request to bring climate scientists into testify. At the end it was a hung jury.
