Court Ruling On Oklahoma Tribal Lands - Not A Good Idea- Read post-



  Turning over Tribal Native American lands over to federal prosecution in the cases of serious crimes, not a good idea. 
   Historically, many negative factors have come out of the federal, tribal, authority process on reservation lands. 
   When local and state authority is eliminated on tribal lands does that mean the police and state police, including highway patrols are going to be vacated, leaving no authorities except federal authorities to prosecute crimes?
     Many crimes on reservation lands are never prosecuted or investigated. The rape of women on those lands has been known to be ignored by authorities and prosecutors. Corruption in the tribal authorities, such as the circumstances surrounding the Wounded Knee reservation incident, have occurred. Remember when Russell Means and company stood off the FBI?

  The corruption of the reservation police led to the incident. The corruption and political maneuvering of the federal authorities made matters worse.

    The situation of federal authority over site with reservation police turns into ignoring concerns of citizens by reservation police and then in turn being ignored by the federal authorities. This turns into federal government bureaucracy that in turn worsens the overall situation. Watch the great movie "Wind River" to get a feel of how those things work. Here's a trailer: 
  
  The ruling by the liberal court is in my opinion absurd. Not a good idea.
