More United Nations Crap

A United Nations investigator probing discrimination against Native Americans has called on the US government to return some of the land stolen from Indian tribes as a step toward combatting continuing and systemic racial discrimination.

They've got land.

EPA region [6] encompassing Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and 66Tribal Nations, recently summed up the Obama Administration’s policy toward the oil and gas industry – crucify them.

Anytime white liberals get on their moral high horse about land being stolen from the Indians, I ask them if they've signed the deed to their home over to the nearest tribe yet? Why not?

Here's another story on this

Are there real troubles on tribal reservations in the U.S.? Yes. But there’s a very good argument that the problem is not lack of land, but a smothering and dispiriting mix of federal subsidies and regulatory intervention, including selective favors that enrich a few but do worse than nothing for the rest.

Rather than address that, the Obama administration has focused on providing a $1 billion settlement, announced last month, for claims dating back more than 100 years,  or, as The Independent Sentinel described it, “Obama Buying Native American Votes.”

Whatever one’s view of that settlement, apparently it was not enough to satisfy the administration — which also called in reinforcements from the UN, in the form of inviting Anaya to “visit” his own native haunts, and provide a UN condemnation and prescription for the doings of America.

So after having 'given' out some tribal 'reparations' to the tune of $1 billion last month, Obama also INVITED the UN to conduct their 'investigation'.

How about $1B in Wal-Mart gift cards ? They could buy all kinds of beads and cheap trinkets ... then maybe they'd shut the hell up for a while !

Just as soon as we get some leadership in Washington that has a set of b*lls...

...until then I'm afraid we will have to continue to suffer this enemy within our borders.

That's what I was thinking.  They're a fifth column operating out of one of our prime pieces of real estate ... err ... the indians' former prime pieces of real estate.

You think,that's bull, one of these morons came to Canada and sniveled that we had food insecurity, because our natives were fat 'obese'.  As such we should raise taxes and shut down the oil sands...

Indeed. The solution to every "crisis" is something from the Leftist agenda wish-list.

I still say the concept of "native American's" has been hijacked from the white man!

Even if you accepted the idea that they were the first human inhabitants of the Americas (they weren't) what exactly is their claim of exclusivity? That they wandered over from Siberia when it was connected to Alaska? How is that any more righteous or noble a claim than when some Europeans wandered over the Atlantic in boats?

It sort of reminds me of Monty Python, when a mob is being whipped up against the Romans. "What good have the Romans ever done, eh?!"

"Uhh...roads?"

"And medicine!"

"Writing!"

[Charles Oakwood]

It's more gibberish.  Who were the Germans before they were conquered from
the north, there's barely a clue, and no remnant. Any settled area other than Israel and Afghanistan do we know for certain the original occupants? No.

Plus, the reason why people (usually agenda-driven people) want to make a "first" claim is because they are looking for something...money (reparations, funding...some sort of shakedown) and for respect (because they are suffering from institutionalized low self-esteem) and because they think they can shame people into feeling sorry for them and they enrich themselves and their "group" by running that scam.  The classic is slavery, which makes me laugh...if anybody takes an honest look at history since man occupied earth...everyone has been enslaved, murdered or persecuted by one group or another...all are victims...nobody is innocent...so I just want to scream STFD and STFU!

I'm still waiting for the UN to monitor our elections. It's got to be coming pretty soon.

Didn't they review FL or something?  I forget, but yeah, Leftists let that trash in...I want it thrown all the way out!
