Before assembling a monument the constructer should consider the amount of…

The tribe is uncomfortable with having a pipeline under their lake, because it could potentially affect their drinking water. Even though scientists say it is…

ignore the Sioux Territory Under the 1851 Treaty of Ft. Laramie, it does cut through a waterway that borders the reservation. It is this waterway, the Missouri River to be exact, that is the reason the original route of the pipeline was changed. There were concerns over the drinking water that is supplied to the people in Bismarck. Now, if those people have concerns about their drinking water being tainted, and possibly even their land, don’t the Native Americans of the Standing Rock Sioux…

This summer I met a girl at the mall named Brooklyn from Sioux Falls, she is about 5 foot and had gauges and a tongue piercing, brown eyes and dirty blonde hair. We both started talking while we both liked the same poster at spencers, a store at the mall and reluctantly she gave me her snapchat and we talked all day and all night. When the fair came to town we both decided to go together. We were having, riding rides I’d usually would never go on but she insisted I get on the kamikaze with her.…
