Letter to the Editor: Line 3 has been studied, it’s a need, and those are the facts

How pipeline opponents continue to get coverage for their ridiculous (and dangerous) antics is beyond me. I have seen photos of protesters erecting themselves in three story high structures that require special equipment and numerous first responders to ensure protesters are safely removed. There have been videos of protesters climbing into unfinished trenches that could crumble in on them or the police who are required to go down to remove them. There has been vandalism, scare tactics and a ridiculous amount of time and energy spent by Minnesota police and rescue officers to remove protesters so construction can continue.
