I find the above tag-line a little annoying.
Jim, I hate to start on the subject of what I used as a tag because it doesn't pertain to this forum but here goes.
The Indians were the brunt of it. The whole point is it could have been any minority group and the same would have happened. It's been happening ever since, people have had their land practically stolen from them by the government becasue of of their need for it. One example was in New Jersey, Tocks Island Resevoir, government made offers, no one wanted it, government came back and said that the resevoir would go in and then the offer was dirt cheap (no pun). Never built the resevoir and never offered the people the land back. So don't think that it couldn't happen to some place that you know of.
I used that tag because most people know what happened and how many times they were lied to. No different today.
I'm not too upset with whats happening to them now, I just laugh at what they did to the government now in Conneticut, and hope on other reservations they do the same.

Who really killed JFK, Marilyn Monroe, Jimmy Hoffa, and more?
I could use: I was born at night but not last night.
or, I thought I was wrong-one time-but I was mistaken.
So Jim, don't take it so hard, just take in the beauty of the sxs and let the rest go, life is to short for stupid shxx.
By the way GOD BLESS AMERICA
