CANNON BALL, N.D. – The last people remaining at a Dakota Access pipeline protest camp prayed and set fire to a handful of wooden structures on Wednesday, hours ahead of a deadline set by the Army Corps of Engineers to close the camp.
Some of the praying protesters said burning the structures — which appeared to include a yurt and a teepee — was part of the ceremony of leaving. As heavy rain turned to snow, some said they expected no trouble during the eviction, despite a heavy law enforcement presence.

Because nothing says we love the environment more than people setting fire to a bunch of shite.

I was kinda hoping they'd use the same image of the union soldiers burning the teepees they used a few weeks ago

We have a ceremony too. It's called building pipeline. It's something we must do. Please respect our culture, protesters.
