More good info to the letter

I don't know about you but every one of those 9th Circuit rulings is
good news beyond belief. I will be doing handsprings all day. I have
been waiting for these rulings for twenty-two years. They fill in the
most
horrendous of the gaps left by the original Boldt decision when Judge
Boldt
refused to define what "usual-and-accustomed" places are.
If the state of Wa. so chooses:
1. It can now regulate the Chehalis Tribal fisheries as part of
"all-citizen" commercial fisheries.
2. The Lummis can be regulated by the state if they want to fish
anywhere else but Bellingham Bay and Admiralty Inlet. They are no longer
a
prime player in hijacking Canadian sockeye during Salmon treaty
negotiation
with our neighbor to the north.
3. The Muckleshoots can be regulated everywhere but Elliot Bay so
they
can no longer hammer on endangered Lake Washington chinook in the name of
taking Lake Washington sockeye.
This precident is huge!!!!
Will the state choose to use its new power? Probably for the
Lummi's
and Chehalis but doubtful for the Muckelshoots since they have so much
casino
money to dump into Democratic party campaign coffers.
