Sep 17, 2016 at 0:23 comment added Loren Pechtel Something to keep in mind here: When you have to dig up the land to put something in you're going to want to go for areas with as little on them as possible. I would be very surprised at a pipeline going through a city unless it was meant to deliver to that city--and even then it very well might be a spur line to minimize the amount of city to be dug up.

Sep 13, 2016 at 18:12 comment added gerrit It is also conceivable that Davey Williams defines native american lands more broadly than the US federal government does; that would make the claim impossible to address, as one might as well argue that all land in North America is/was native.
Sep 13, 2016 at 17:52 comment added Zo the Relativist But then, you fall back on the semantics of a "big" pipeline. Irrespectively, it doesn't look like, from that map, that they're avoiding the suburbs of Dallas, Houston, St. Louis, Philadelphia, LA or Chicago.
Sep 13, 2016 at 17:52 comment added Zo the Relativist @Bakuriu: so the answer is "no" becuase, per that map, there is only one native area in Texas, but a ton of pipelines.
Sep 13, 2016 at 17:44 comment added Bakuriu If somebody is interested in checking this, here is a map of the pipelines and here one of the native american reserves.

removed mention of speculation (it's not relevant to the claim), and removed a guess answer.
