A few hours of pushing dirt and it's gone. This isn't vandalism, it's harmless.
Someone is out to make an example of her. Ridiculous!

Spray paint isn't going to stop the pipeline.
she was there, doing something to protest this pipeline. You may disagree with the civil disobedience and/or her actions but she was doing something.
And spray painting a bulldozer blade is really not going to damage the unit in any way, we both know that.

But Jill Stein's objective is only to get more press for Jill Stein. She couldn't care less about the pipeline.
whatever......

They're actually going to charge her for this?
Meanwhile, Trump.
