[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 120614, member: 3373"] In reality, what would you do about this situation if you had the power? It's easy to sit and blame everyone else for this fiasco but would you want to be the first one to pull the trigger and kill or injure someone who is only guilty of being getting caught up in this movement and really has no intention of doing anything rash themselves. I can sit at home and say I would do this but could I in the long run? Chairman Archambault see's his "sovereign nation". Most of us see his "sovereign nation" as a drain on the government and nothing more than another welfare state. Perhaps, years ago, if the white's had the foresight to see that damage that making a group of people dependent on the government we should have provided a way for them to live on their own like most of us we would have all been better off. Chairman Fox some day wants to be free from relying on the government. If that were true do you think we would have another protest on that reservation when checks no longer were coming in. Have the Native American's been treated fairly in their history. Absolutely not, but this pipeline is the least of their problems. Especially since a lot of that oil is coming from the Three Affiliated Tribes oil fields. When will it all end? [/QUOTE]
