Veterans at Standing Rock!

The Standing Rock Sioux of North Dakota and many US Veterans are taking a stand in a nation not known for taking much of a stand lately, about the environmental situation, clean energy, or life inside our national borders themselves. Two local veterans are going to Standing Rock, North Dakota on Saturday, Dec 3, 2016.

They will be financed, by this veteran, in their endeavor to stand between the Sioux Tribal Members and the United States Government and the State Leaders of North Dakota. They are getting expenses and horses to join the tribe like Jose Wales joined the indians in the movie The Outlaw Jose Wales, or was joined by them.

There’s a cause worth supporting out there and it has little to do with pipelines or energy. It has to do with the human condition, government intervention and civil behavior. It’s a pleasure to be a part of something that seem to have merit in so many areas of current life in America

I will be updating their progress into next week.

Hi James,

I’ve sent you a couple of emails to
antaresproductions@charter.net with a couple of questions about your request for an article for your newspaper.

Did you see them?

Thanks, John Marshall

Hi James,

Besides reading your installments of Thirty Days Has September, I do a bit of freelancing, including writing about the Standing Rock protest.

Here’s my latest today about a Hawaii congresswoman — who is also a veteran — calling for a halt to the project.

Would you mind writing something for our local newspaper around the lake here John?
We go to press on Wednesday with a cut off on Tuesday morning at eleven. We’ll give you a byline
and a few bucks, nothing like the big time, of course. Our circulation is 75,500, so we are small.

I followed your links John. Very impressive.
Interested on learning more about Blasting News.
I believe James would be a great candidate, also, as a contributor.
How long have you been contributing?
