3 Sep 2016 – Police stood idly by as private security guards who were working on behalf of the corporations building the controversial Dakota Access Pipeline turned attack dogs on peaceful protesters.
Several Native American groups have been circulating videos of the pepper-spraying by the security forces, as well as the dog attacks.
Yes, that is the blood of peaceful protestors on this dog’s mouth.

Despite the attack the water protectors pushed onward until construction on the site was shutdown for the day.
