Also just sayin', everything people on this board accuse Indians of doing is the [Bleeeeep!] white people are doing all the time everywhere on planet earth.
If a white guy stole your stereo would all white guys be thieves?
So why when an Indian does it are all Indians thieves?
Just remember that corporations, governments, developers et cetera get away with this type of crap all the time and people get [Bleeeeep!] and go unheard but in this case since its over fish and fishing rights and separate classes, people are paying attention and the racism comes out full force.
I tell people all the time that we taught the Tribes most of what they know about dirty dealings, so we ought not be so surprised when they start playing the game by our rules. Their first move was monopolizing gambling, and that's proved to be a pretty good one. Now that they've got money to throw around, they've become a political force to be reckoned with. The irony of how they've gotten here is quite rich. Americans are gluttons for all things sinful. The Tribes know it, and they're all too happy to let us choke ourselves to a slow death while they buy back what our ancestors took from them with the profits. Pretty good, downright Capitalistic plan, if you ask me.
