The Boldt decision stands because the pundits in Wash DC think it is cool to see the Indian fish in his traditional ways and it also makes them feel a little less guilty about what happened 150 years ago. The original treaties were written in a way the people of the time could understand and we have been paying for it every since. And, besides, Kennewick man was not an Indian so all the treaties are null and void!!! Hah!!!
