Political or not?????

Man this just sounds stupid. Who is going to take our Land BESIDES the United States. Never in my life am I worried about Mexicans, Africans, Asians or anyone else coming over here and taking our land. Do you know why? Because they cling to their own Homeland. The only ones that seem to be on worldwide crusade are Europeans. Second my tribe has its own government, police, and hospital no thanks to you that takes care of our people as well as great social services and welfare that we provide for elders and disabled. All of this is funded by just two casinos. If you want to talk about money management, take a lesson.

So where did the funding to build those casinos come from? Selling trinkets on the side of the road? Wampum? Nope. Federal funding.

Second, since when are there tribes of Mexican origin in Wisconsin??....

When the economy on "your land" fails and a drought wipes out your crops and your family is starving and you have nowhere to turn, don't call the US for aide, call Mexico.

Also My family is almost completely independent when it comes to food. Every one has a huge garden that grows beans, corn, tomatoes, peppers, zuchini that last us almost all year. This year was the worst year we ever had but still have a Freezer full of veggies. Also we have business with local farmers so it is nothing for us to buy a pig or two, or whole cow processed for less than $1/lb including ground beef, steaks, roasts, etc when your grocery stores sell them for triple that at least. Not to mention another freezer full of venison and wild turkeys, fish that we catch.

I might be confusing people. I am Potowatomi Native American and Mexican and White. Where I live I am talking on behalf of the Potawatomi but also speak for the rights of illegal aliens.

Have not broken into this fight untill now, but Illegal Aliens have no rights if they chose to come to this country in an illegal manner.

Its crazy how people have forgotten that this country was founded by illegal immigrants. The only difference is Natives were nice enough to let them come into our land and then they stabbed us in the back. But now that Europeans have taken over nobody can come in illegally again.

Federally Funded through Loans you mean. I dont understand how that is a hand out. Casinos are funded by more than your loans. Stop trying to take credit for everything when its not true.

I am sorry but thinking like that tells me that the only people who should have any ownership of any land are the people of Africa, because we all know that Africa is where the Original Humans came from. Native Americans are nothing more than people who migrated from Africa many many moons ago.
And I know for a fact that all of my relatives came over here by legal means.
And who even cares if the Europeans stabbed native americans in the back every country the world has ever know has been forged in blood in violence. Its the way it is, the strong survive and form new countries, thats how it has gone since the dawn of man.
And before anybody says I am racist against the "Native Americans" my wife is 25 percent my father-in-law is 50 percent and my wife's gandfather is 100 percent "Native American"

Wow that has to be the most intelligent statement of the day, Not. How humanitarian of you. Who even cares if the Nazi killed the Jews and Invaded Poland, Only the strong survive. The only difference between both statements is the Nazis didnt have enough fire power to survive long enough.

This has gotten way off topic so I am done debating this stuff.

Just because that was the accepted practice doesn't make it right. I can understand how Native Americans could find that paragraph offensive.
