We have a place to move if Ron Paul does not win!!!!!! YES!

Well, supporting people who are doing the same thing that they complained about us doing countless years ago does not give them much credibility.

What, ethnic cleansing? Genocide? Eradication?

Morales just wants to send in more "coke"

lol, now it will land directly into the sovereign nation.

No problemo. But I sure would like a link to this story - if it's true - that is amazing to me that the Feds have not done anything about this "take-over"...

Here's a link. http://www.propertyrightsresearch.org/2004/articles6/little_big_war.htm

You people who support this make me sick. This will only lead to the natives being more impoverished at the very least, so I do not see much to support.

I do not support anything that would harm them. I support self-determination. I cannot speak for these people or the legal status of their nation. The treaties we have with them from what I understand still exist. And, I see no reason why they cannot be free and independent from the United States government.

However, since I am brand new to this issue I understand there is much more to be discussed and considered.

How about the Lakota Bank

reserves backed by gold, numbered acoounts and anonymity.

 

[RPFTW!]

Cool the Lakotas name the New World Order by name in their declaration.

You know, I sometimes wonder if some of you guys actually care about helping America. Ron Paul has been in the congress for many years, hes lost elections, both in congress and for President, yet here he is at 72 still trying.

Yet so many of you at least give off the perception that at the first set back you will be willing to jump ship, move elsewhere, give up. I just dont get it.

Well, supporting people who are doing the same thing that they complained about us doing countless years ago does not give them much credibility. The last part of your response makes me laugh. You attempts to label me as a baby are without merit. You are not even a tenth of the person I am, I have done more good for Americas image in the world here in Turkey than you ever could. You should see the looks on the young deaf children's faces when I go volunteer my tuesdays to work with them and bring some joy into thier life and help do upgrades to their underfunded, run down school. I have no time to argue with such ilk who knows nothing outside the safety of their own country. You make me laugh.

Although I do agree with you we need to elect Ron. C'mon, I am not that bad just because I do not think these natives are going about solving their issues the right way, to put it nicely.

What are you talking about? The US Federal Government didn't honor their agreements with these people. If you believe in the rule of law and honoring contracts, then you have to give these people what was owed to them.

The domestic enemy you ought to be drawing your guns upon are the politicians and special interests who failed to give these people what they properly negotiated for.

I don't care if you're building some school in Turkey. If you think violence is the answer against the Lakota tribe, then you're no better than an agent of tyranny for the US federal government.

Ron Paul lived most of his life so far in an un-free country. I wish to live in a free country, if even not this one.

Hey, whatever floats your boat. As for me, a quote from a late President comes to mind.

Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
-Calvin Coolidge

I don't see any hostile intent in their declaration. We should talk with them, trade with them and travel there.

If people want to vote with their feet and move there they certainly have that right.

This thread needs a merge with the other one.

Some friends of mine made a documentary up there a couple years ago. This will give you some info about how terrible the conditions are there:

They also made a documentary (Rezonomics) about the economic system up there, but I can't find a good online copy.

I was wondering where you were hiding out at, my brother.

Thanks for the Christmas card BTW!
