(I really wanted to take some time off, but there is just too much stuff going on…)

Natives protesting fracking on their land have been run over.  I’m unclear about the first paragraph and whether the persons were run over by SWN vehicles.  In the posted tweets, note the upside down Canadian flag (on the mylar balloon)–I have to wonder if that were purposeful, as they have flown the U.S. flag upside down as a signal of distress.   And support is growing around the world, with Ireland expressing their solidarity with the Elsipogtog.  Bless the Irish 🙂

In this link,  the journalists have rallied around Miles Howe, the journalist arrested three times so far:

The Canadian Association of Journalists issued a press release Monday calling on “the RCMP to either lay charges or stop harassing a journalist working in New Brunswick arrested for the third time on Nov. 28,” referring to Media Co-op’s Miles Howe.

“RCMP behaviour suggests they are unfamiliar with the charter rights of a free press and the allowances those rights permit journalists while covering controversial and volatile situations,” CAJ president Hugo Rodrigues said.

Caption:  “Well, that about sums it up.”  Yep….except the politician needs to be wearing a blazer with all the corporate logos that sponsor him/her on it…..and their pockets full of cash they bribe with…

On a hot summer day, nothing sounds better than a cool drink of water….

(sorry for the visual, but you get the point…contaminated water is unappealing to look at as harmful to the body.)

The Warriors send their greetings and Thanks.

Blessings to the defenders of the water and land…
