Um, I'm not talking about the Wyoming Supreme Court rulings (those don't hold precedential value when it comes to federal law). I'm talking about subsequent United States Supreme Court rulings related to the 1905 act of congress.

If the citizens are forced to leave, I hope they torch everything and burn it all to the ground.

They aren't being forced to leave - only the boundary changed.

The city now is part of the reservation.

I always refer to Native Americans as Native American and people from INDIA as Indians.

And as such both city and state workers should be officially unemployed because the reservation holds the right to employ those positions.

Overnight 108 years of rule got wiped.

Don't be so hard on Columbus - he honestly thought that he had found India.

That calls for a war whoop, a tomahawk chop, and some scalping!!!!!

You can find that outside any Atlanta Braves game.

I've learned from this forum recently that a non-offensive term is "Redskin." Therefore, I now refer to them as Redskins. Doesn't the alliterative quality of Redskin Reservation sound nice?

Who's "we"? Those people are all dead now. Besides the descendants of the tribes that settled within our borders are all full fledged U.S. citizens today with their soveirgn lands. If you want to compensate dead people then go for it.

First of all, that's a really crummy link. It took forever to load then filled my screen with some idiot political petition that I had no interest in "signing".

Second of all, the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) does not administer Native Lands. That would be the Bureau of Indian Affairs which does that.

How about we get some REAL discussions around here?
