CFM, I do not intend to get into a pi**ing contest with you on this. I may have Indian blood in me, I don't really know and it has absolutely no bearing on my thoughts and decisions. Having said that, I will engage in a rather deplorable tactic of quoting you without putting the full context around it. Here are some of your statements that sets a negative tone to having any Indian tribe that owns a casino decide to follow up with your suggestion in a positive way.
"You got to remember that we are talking about a race of people who have for hundreds of years now, have become depended on the hand outs from the white man to better there race. After they were conquered by the white man, we gave them land to live on (reservations). Then we made them even more dependent on the white man for there own survival. Now they must depend on the white mans money to bring back their habitat that support their ceremonial beliefs that fish are part of their ancestral culture."
There was also the lively debate with Letty regarding the definition of conquest.
My point is that I read these things not as fact or fiction but as a tone in trying to motivate someone to do something. My issue and the reason that I said you were trying to get folks to rise to the bait is that I see your tone as inflammatory. With that said, I'm very uncertain that you could get a tribe to agree to your suggested donation of profits.
