Hanford Bulls

I don't even know the guy just my opinion. I'm sure I would know him if I knew his name its a small rez.

His last name is Whitefoot. You are wrong that "white people" have done the same to other tribal members on here.  This is the first time that I have seen someone overtly use racist names.  Especially ones directed at a specific person.

 I would support banning little red wagon but I have never seen someone owned so bad in a debate as Plateau is owning this one.  He gains my respect with every well thought out post.  A lesser man would have got heated and thrown mud and trash back.  Not many on here ( myself included) would have responded as well as Plateau has.

Oh and I think YAK is hiding something. He doestn own an excursion he drives a red Toyota Prious with a huge Obama sticker on the back.

I disagree, last year you and I were debating on whether or not I had the qualifications of an "Indian Tracker".  To prove my case I successfully helped fill my budy's west side MF elk tag, solidifying my status as an "Indian Tracker".  After that I took out a Title Policy on you...... I have retained ownership of you ever since, although now I'm considering dumping you because it's tarnishing my portfolio.  Now that everyone is owning Colockumelk in a debate, it's really driven down the demand...

I've said before, Plateau is above board on his posts.  He can articulate his position with fact and substance.  I've seen few posters hold command of their tounge when pushed as GE has been.  Yes, I'm white and I'm fullblood too-Swedish.  Heck it means nothing to me, but I do know that heritage is important to many ethnic cultures.  I respect that too.  I appreciate debate, while not as good at it as others.  I appreciate YAK and Little Red Wagon for being vocal.  I do not agree with LRW and his attack of Plateau.

I'm not well versed in American Indian culture, but if Plateau put on a seminar I'd sign up.  He has a lot to show me, and others too.

Thank you for keeping this open and allowing dialogue; however, if the actions warrant closure I support the mod's decision.  Thanks BearPaw

You know I really wanted to keep things civil but Coastal leaves me no choice.  The gloves are off.

There's really no PC way to say this but.... Coastal knows Christine Gregoire INTIMATELY!! And Rezboy keeps the pics to prove it under his bed.

I have to chime in also, as a Irish/Scot/Norwegian mix, my family came to America through Canada.
Both of my grandparents lived on the Suquamish reservation, and I have family that lives there still, cousins on both sides.
I spent my summers just up the street from Chief Sealths grave-site, and my grandmother was the cook at the elementary school.
My best friend is married to a Puyallup, with children.
Gave my fathers Ti-pi to a Lummi.
I have "Grass Danced" with some Dakota-Sioux,
friends for years with some Blackfoot,
I can go on, lots of "native" friends.
The vast majority of them are great people, that show respect.
it is the few obnoxious "racist" and disrespectful that get all the attention.
Kudos to Plateau and Coastal for creating a positive reflection upon themselves, when it is so much easier to be a bad "apple"

Having personally witnessed a "hunt" last winter by some Native American fellows(some of you may remember from a post on here and a letter to the editor is several newspapers), I find the news of this Hanford situation equally depressing. A shame, really, as is any situation where an animal is killed not on a hunt but on a shoot where the shooter does something brazen just because they can.

But Plateau, I have a question that maybe you or others who may know can answer: Did the treaties for the Tribes in the Southwest not contain any Ceded Land, and that is why they have to abide by US law off of the reservation? Or, in recent history, have those Treaties been revised so that all people on United State's soil are created equal in the eyes of the law?

I acknowledge that horrendous things were done to Native Americans (who are immigrants too according to the Arctic Sea land bridge idea), but will there ever be a time when the slate is wiped away and we are all just Americans with individual ancestries? No white man or Indian man living today was the aggressor or receiver in any of these terrible acts.

OK now I think this is a bunch of crap why is it you all go after the helpless people, are we still in school always picking on the weird kid. I so feel kicked to the side and beat down.

YAK I'd rather kick a guy when he's down then try and kick him while he's standing.  They can't kick back when they're down.
