Even more important, why aren't we all flocking to this nation... 1,000 today, 2,000 tomorrow and in 5 years there is no Federal government? The American Indian owns this country, why not kick the bumbs out on our own terms?
 
"When you bank with Lakota, you can expect us to safeguard your property with our lives. We will defend it from theft by looting or force."

Damn right! Good for them for exercising their sovereignty, too bad we can't be free too :(

Are you suggesting we repeat history, moving Indian lands for a better life, taking over, and kicking the Indians out? Lol, I doubt you mean that or are actually trying to say that, I just thought that seemed funny.

What bums are you talking about
 
I love it, love it, love it !!!!! Why aren't we all relocating and recapturing America as it was founded, in this nation? I almost said new nation, but actually the corrupt bastards in Washington are the new nation. The real nation is the land of the free, and the home of the brave. Anything to suggest the new globalist nation proposed by the CFR is the land of the free?

We need to do everything we can to support the Lakota's in recapturing what is truly their's and our's.
 
Hey, a light bulb has turned on in my head. What if othe rsovereign indian reservations outside the jurisdiction of the fed decided to open a bank and only in gold and silver....... let's get a revolution with all the tribes joining in!:D
 
check this link and AIM's (American Indian Movement)

We need to check these kind of claims out. Just because someone states that they are Lakota does not mean that they speak for the Lakota people. There has never been a withdrawing from the US treaties as claimed.

I have a dear friend in Colorado who is a respected tribal lawyer and
licensed to practice in many tribal courts throughout the west and
mid-west. He is also a dedicated follower of Ron Paul. I spoke to him about the withdrawing from treaties and he knew
exactly who I was talking about.

Please read the link below and note that this claim was made by 3 people
NOT the Treaty Council, the traditional government of the Lakota.

Take note that one of these people is the contact for this Free Lakota
Bank, Canupa Gluha Mani.

Also, one of these 3 people is Russell Means. I have pasted below a portion
of a press release from AIM’s on Feb 20, 1999 about Russell means. This is
not anyone we need to associate ourselves with.

“What is especially egregious and outrageous about Russell Mean's
violations of the laws of the Dine Nation is that he is charged with
assault and battery against his father-in-law, Mr. Leon Grant who is a
revered elder of both the Omaha and Dine Nation and is 80 years of age and
has an artificial arm. We, of the American Indian Movement Grand Governing
Council are no longer surprised by Russell's clownish antics. He continues
to deceitfully mis-represent the American Indian Movement in order to
deceive those peoples and organizations worldwide, who due to their
goodwill, and support of the Indian cause may have already, or will
contribute to his appeal through his personal web page where he solicits
money for the Russell Means Philanthropy and AIM Club Membership in name of
the American Indian Movement, and an "Immersion Indian School" that never
existed, nor does it exist at this time.”

Please check this out and repost it. We don’t need any black marks on the
Campaign for Liberty.

The thought had crossed my mind that Oklahoma, upstate New York, Washington State, New Mexico and Arizona, among others, could get pretty good coverage if the Cherokee or the Creek, the Spokane and/or others, the Navajo, and a few other reservational nations could set up an officially sanctioned operation along these lines along with the Lakota.

West of the Mississippi, at least, just a few key nations could establish some pretty good coverage.

thanks i missed that post. I am actually going to gordon nebraska(thanksgiving with family) end of week,so i might check into it more and ask some of the local indians!!!
 
At the risk of sounding paranoid, could there be a possibility that this is a setup or sting?

I have read that tribes are not permitted to "coin money", on the other hand there is this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Lakotah

"The Republic of Lakotah proposes that the nation be organized as a confederation that would respect the libertarian principles of posse comitatus and caveat emptor, would offer "individual liberty through community rule," and would collect no nationwide taxes. However, individual communities within the proposed nation would be allowed to levy taxes with the consent of the taxed. No currency has yet been proposed but Russell Means has suggested that the proposed nation should not use fiat currency but instead adopt a gold standard."

There is certainly some legitimacy in the documentation of the leader of the Lakota people is against fiat currencies.

The leader of the Lakota, Russel Means, actually ran for the Libertarian nomination in 1987!

I doubt a traditional reservation is going to sell even their own members land any more, that 'white-eyes' real estate property ownership concept destroyed the reservations because their own people would get bought out and the tribe would be left holding only bits and pieces of ownership of their own reservations over time. Smarter bands who wanted to maintain complete and collective tribal possession did so by absolutely never treating land as a thing that can be owned, but only leased for a maximum duration of a lifetime, and yes such traditional bands have and do lease land to both members and non-members, if agreeable terms can be reached.

I'd be surprised if the Lakota aren't being very careful about the culturally dangerous concept of land ownership as well. Here in MN the most traditional band, the Red Lake band of the Ojibwe, still hold 100% of their remaining reservation lands and have never allowed private individual ownership of any of it, only leases. The license plates they issue to residents there say 'sovereign nation.' Most of our other bands here are using a large portion of the casino take for their land reclamation projects, in short buying back parcels within their reservation boundaries as they come available for sale.

But as others have warned here, Means himself has always been a controversial figure within the American Indian Movement, do not consider any one particular organization or effort within that group to automatically have the blessing of the whole of the tribal community.

I swear that was one of the most interesting and informative original posts I've read in a long while.

Thank you for your insight.
 
I urge you to do investigating. Below is the article that I have referred to in a previous post.

There are certain actions that a respected elder would take, Russell means is not respected by many in the Lakota nation. He does things as it suits him, such as joining and leaving AIM's on numerous occasions. Apparently only claiming to be a member if it suits his purpose. I know people (respected Indians) that have meet him and they state they have no use for him.

I might also add that when I sent this bank release out west the first response I got back was they thought it was interesting that in the press release they refer to gold and silver as real money, when the ancestors had no use for it. It was considered a soft metal with no value to the Indians. Actually one quote was " the elders I know would rather be given a bag of tobacco then a bag of gold.

Anyway here's the link
