Thats exactly what it (today) is, for a long ride on my bike. Read bicycle. Out of the suburban wasteland to the green countryside.....adios.....
If it's legal in Amerika to gamble on reservations, why the hell can't Native Americans that maybe don't want to work there, grow hemp and use it to build and sustain an industry that will only benefit all involved? Theres not enough whiteman money in it is why. The federal government is insane. Gonzo. King Cotton is in charge of this policy, I guarantee it. Monsanto hasn't patented the seeds yet. Native American industry that will allow people to elevate themselves out of the poverty system cannot be allowed, obviously. Native Americans vs Con Agra. I support HR1009. I really wish the sovereign nationality Native Americans were supposed to enjoy on the little land we 'gave' them was real.
Reparations for the theft of an entire country, this country? How much have they been paid for what we took and still hold? The Native Americans should be given half of every buck made on every land transaction thats ever been in Amerika.Thats probably not enough, either. Shit. Outlawing the industrial farming of an industrial plant (which has virtually no THC content) that some say is the best thing to come along for the native people of the Plains since the Buffalo? Oppresion. Thats the only word for this crap. Leave them alone, at least....
Helicopters landing in their fields and commandos cutting down the plants, after they've matured? Sounds like terrorist tactics to me. The Cavalry is back, only now it's the Air Cav. "Death From Above". That was the motto of the first air cavalry in Viet Nam and, it probably still is. Imagine, if you can,working for six months on a project just to see it destroyed at maturity by armed goon squads jumping out of your government's helicopter 'gunships' that are flying them in and out. I mean, just see if you can imagine that., How'd you like it? In your country ,on your land. Look mom, it's the DEA coming to save us from ourselves again. How do we thank them?
