GoFundMe's NoDAPL dollars put police in danger

Throughout the protests surrounding the Dakota Access pipeline in Morton County, N.D., many people have asked how these protesters are being funded. Anyone who takes even a moment to try to follow the money cannot avoid ending up on a page hosted by the charity fundraising web platform GoFundMe.

Whether it's the infamous "Veterans For Standing Rock" with their missing $1.1 million, or another organization in the litany of Standing Rock-based pages on the website, rough estimates for the amount raised on these pages have been reported to be around $11 million. Just as a point of reference, the state of North Dakota already has spent more than $30 million managing the crisis these donations were meant to fund.
