mstar.....head a little clearer this morning? You've got your facts screwed up....in more ways than one.

First of all, the hunters weren't tribal members, and the cops may or may not be, but they were acting under tribal authority.
Secondly, some have tried to make this a racial issue, but it's not......it's a policing policy issue (at least to me). Cops should not be treating citizens like criminals without good reason....get it? I don't give a damn whether the cops are tribal, white, Iranian, or Chinese......makes no difference. The "legal" aspects of this mess are an entirely different matter.....as any lawyer will tell you. I'm enraged by the treatment endured by legal hunters because the damn cops didn't know their ass from third base.

So get off the poor Indian soap box.
