OP I thought the same thing once. Then I started photographing the Placitas Wild Horses & wild horses in the surrounding area. Theres a 2 year old out there with a broken leg & when the rez she is on was called the first 2 guys said they would send someone out immediately. The final guy claimed the horse doesnt belong to the rez so they are not going to do anything. That poor horse has been out there since Wednesday.
 
My ranch in Cal. is next door to local Indian tribe members with their own ranches, grandfather is next door, his daughter , her husband, and their 2 daughers 2 doors down . Their tribe owns a casino on their reservation just 10 miles from my ranch. EACH tribe member receives almost $20,000 per month as their share in the casino gambling winnings. So they aren't exactly poor. I have many conversations with grandfather quite often when he is home and not traveling around the country attending powwows, ceremonies, and other Indian gatherings. So I get some first hand information . Let us just say the insident that I first posted is not an isolated event. Another rival small tribe just a few miles farther away, brought in bulldozers onto their reservation and clear stripped an area of several acres of every tree, blade of grass , and graded level hills over a stream . All this to get ready to build a casino that they were only in very preliminary negotiations to even build. No environmental impact report, permits, no nothing, they just did it. Each tribe considers themselves as an independent nation.
 
So your example of one small tribe means you get to paint the rest of us as worthless low lives that feed off the government and casinos? In truth very few family's in the whole benefit from the casinos. If you don't live on the reservation and are "full blooded" you don't get squat.

I am not red, my family is not red. You Bossroo are racist and uneducated.
