FROM Jon Eagle Sr. on "Veterans Stand with Standing Rock"
"Veterans Stand with Standing Rock. You have no idea how good it felt to walk into this building and be told, "Fall in!"
"I wish America could be more like the Sioux. I think Creator made them so strong and stubborn because one day they were going to have to stand up for all of us." - Wes Clarke
Monday night a group of veterans gathered to honor the fallen. They were taken away in handcuffs. The charge? They were violating a 10PM curfew, and thus trespassing. There was no violence. They were respectful to NYPD officers, and they were peaceful. They were there to honor the fallen and commemorate the 12th anniversary of the war in Afghanistan.
