The first Keystone tar sands pipeline, constructed less than a year ago, has sprung its twelfth leak, spilling up to 2,100 gallons of raw tar sands crude oil in Kansas on May 29th when a pipeline fitting around a pressure transmitter failed. This comes just three weeks after a broken pipe fitting on Keystone resulted in a 60’ geyser of tar sands crude, spewing 21,000 gallons in North Dakota.

Unfortunately, Keystone will have to go around their lands. Constitutional law and Case Law establishes this would indeed be an act of war, and I'm for the Keystone pipeline.

Keystone doesn't cross the rez.
Like you can always be watching all of your property. Good luck with that.It is our country too, and was before white assholes like you came here.
It may have been your property at one time, but we did a much better job of making your people bleed for it than you did of making us bleed for it. Hell, if you could go back in time and tell the Northeastern tribes to follow the same policy as the mid-atlantic tribes did with Roanoake, maybe you'd have had a shot of keeping your property to some degree with TWO decimated English settlements to use as examples. No, instead they taught the Pilgrims how to survive, and now your people are forced to live in shithole reservations.
The law says different. You will remember the next time something is stolen from you.
Law/Power emenates from the muzzle of a gun, which is exactly what anyone trying to steal from me is going to see.
How about if we gave 5% of the profit to the tribe for building it on their land? Would that be fair???
It does cross an area of the reservation that is broken up into segmented allotments and parcels called trust lands. I believe their is a map that shows them at Wikipedia. Most maps just show the main body of the Rosebud Reservation and leave out the trust lands because they are a series of hundreds if not thousands of individual various size parcels.Unfortunately, Keystone will have to go around their lands.

What gives them standing in court then? They should just throw the case out.

The president of South Dakota’s Rosebud Sioux (Sicangu Lakota Oyate) tribe has called the House of Representatives' vote to force approval of the Keystone XL pipelinean “act of war,” the Summit County Citizen's Voice reported on Saturday.
"The House has now signed our death warrants and the death warrants of our children and grandchildren. The Rosebud Sioux Tribe will not allow this pipeline through our lands,” President Cyril Scott said in a statement. “We will close our reservation borders to Keystone XL.”
Scott said he and other tribal elders have not been appropriately consulted on the pipeline, which would run through the tribe's land. He also contended the House vote violates the 1851 and 1868 Fort Laramie treaties, which gave the Black Hills to the Sioux Nation, according to the Summit County Citizen's Voice.
"The Lakota people have always been stewards of this land,” said Scott. “We feel it is imperative that we provide safe and responsible alternative energy resources not only to tribal members but to non-tribal members as well. We need to stop focusing and investing in risky fossil fuel projects like TransCanada’s Keystone XL pipeline. We need to start remembering that the earth is our mother and stop polluting her and start taking steps to preserve the land, water, and our grandchildren’s future."
The Rosebud tribe and other members of the Great Sioux Nation have adopted tribal resolutions opposing the Keystone XL project in February, according to the Grand Island Independent.

I don't think the map shows the small portion of the Rosebud that is next to Pine Ridge
Okay. Here's a map that does.
, but I also think the pipeline is posed to "miss" the Reservation.
Yes, if you check the pdf map I provided a few posts ago, the pipeline will miss both reservations. But the Indians said all the right buzz words about the environment and global warming, and so the rubes did not check their claims.
Like you can always be watching all of your property. Good luck with that.
