...Knowing he/she is not license or privileged to do so, the individual enters or remains in any place to which notice against trespass is given to the actor by the individual in charge of the premises or other authorized individual or by posting in a manner reasonably likely to come to the attention of intruders...”
I suppose nothing should surprise us, coming as this did from a bunch of people who thought it was a good idea to “release the dogs” on a group of peaceful protesters.
I suppose that soon they’ll be trying to break sacred treaties they made with the people who have lived on the land before the idiots took over. Oh, wait…
Update: And now, Democracy Now has a report on Democracy Now’s host being charged!
An arrest warrant has been issued in North Dakota for Democracy Now! host and executive producer Amy Goodman. Goodman was charged with criminal trespassing, a misdemeanor offense. A team from Democracy Now! was in North Dakota last week to cover the Native American-led protests against the Dakota Access pipeline.
On Sept. 3, Democracy Now! filmed security guards working for the Dakota Access pipeline company using dogs and pepper spray to attack protesters. Democracy Now’sreport went viral online and was re-broadcast on many outlets including CBS and MSNBC.
“This is unacceptable violation of freedom of the press," said Amy Goodman in a statement. "I was doing my job by covering pipeline guards unleashing dogs and pepper spray on Native American protesters.”
