[QUOTE="dean nelson, post: 120408, member: 1305"] I went to school with allot of different natives in Bismark and was friends with many and enemy to none. That said non of the last longer then two years before they would disappear back to the res with some eventually ending up ato south Central. With golden parachute they have with the ability to fall back to their reservation it more or less drives to point home to them that no matter what you will always have a safety net to catch you when you fall. In the end this set up rewards failure in school instead of rewarding people doing the right thing. For me sitting here i can't for the life of me think of a native meet that I didn't like. It has to be hard to go from being the mightiest of the Plains Indians down to a group settled in a ghetto who is rapidly loosening the parts of them self that were so noble back before us. But in the end thay will have to be the one to kick off the reform. I think the government should start a program that helps the younger generation and help lift them up out of poverty and into a stable middle class life style. This certainly wouldn't be a cure all but at least it could get the ball rolling in the right direction. One crazy thing to think about is if this suddenly goes bat shot crazy it may well go down in history as the "last Indian battle!:;:duel [/QUOTE]
