Treaty rules continue in to pop up in wildlife news
I wouldn't call Browns book as a full perspective at all. In reality it's pretty biased. What happened between the Native Americans and Europeans after first contact was unfortunate, but mostly inevitable. It's what happens when a modern industrial culture comes in contact with one still more...- BWALKER77

Treaty rules continue in to pop up in wildlife news
Buzz, treaties where changed almost as soon as they were signed in some cases. For instance the Crow reservation at one time started in Paradise valley and its agency was located in Livingston, then it was shrunk and the agency moved to Absarokee, then it was shrunk again and moved to Crow...- BWALKER77

In the history of treaties with the Tribes that's never happened so why start now? It's not like treaties are monolithic and can't be changed. IMO they should all be renegotiated to reflect modernity.- BWALKER77

I am all for tribal sovereignty. The US should also require a pass port and Visa for tribal members entering the USA .- BWALKER77

A brawl brewing in spokane?
One other concern I have is if these groups get there way and hunting is severly restricted or eliminated on public land what effect will this have on the transfer movement? How many hunters would give two chits about public land if they couldn't hunt it.- BWALKER77

Here in Billings,MT USA we get hail storms on a regular basis that would damage the hell out of roof top solar panels. I've had 3 new roofs put on in 6 years. Plus the northern half of the country is not ideally suited to solar. Of course that didn't stop a solar project from being built...- BWALKER77
