'The Perfect Storm' was the perfect human rights disaster

In the typical "good ole boy" style, Morton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier claims he was honoring water protectors rights to free speech, and just trying to keep the peace, in his deposition in the current case, North Dakota v. United States of America.

Kirchmeier, however, also reveals that only a couple of his sheriff's deputies were trained in the use of less-than lethal weapons. He also reveals that among the first people that he called on for backup was Paul Laney, president of the North Dakota's National Sheriffs Association.

Kirchmeier also says they don't deal in Treaties at the Sheriffs Department.
