FUNDING RACIAL SEGREGATION  IN AMERICA

We sold our soul to the gambling industry for 8% of net

Glendale and the State of Arizona are fighting to retain control of land owned by the taxpayers. The real issue is not whether to allow the gambling industry access to the mainstream marketplace, which the voters have always denied to them. Heck, they acquired access to our markets nearly two decades ago. No, the real issue is REVENUE, as in none for the taxpayers.

All the casino revenues in Arizona go for maintaining that particular BIA controlled racial enclave. The tens of millions in  income sucked up by the Glendale casino will not only adversely affect small businesses in the area; it will cost every single taxpayer in the State.

We must at some point, begin to recognize the fact; the taxpayers receive squat from the BIA racist compounds. While we tongue in cheek refer to them as sovereign nations, there is no lawful or reasonable way, that we can accept a sovereign nation, composed of United States citizens, and our fellow electorates. The cost to society goes far beyond violating a few principles and scruples. It comes down to dollars and cents.

When the Department of Interior approves this nonsense; we will not only lose control of an industry that is banned by law, we will have no control over the conduct of their privately funded police. But, the more important issue remains revenue! The largess of the tainted fruits paid to taxpayers will be a paltry 8% of Net. That is only if the Tribe deems there are any net revenues available.

The local press selling out to the gambling industry for advertising space, while reprehensible, is certainly understandable. What is much harder to comprehend; is why local political leadership is allowing bureaucrats and politicians to force feed the people into accepting an industry that is universally scorned?

Is it reasonable that bureaucrats and lobbyist from Washington should be able to force the citizens of Glendale, Arizona  into allowing the gambling industry to operate in their community?  Why is this happening? Simple, the Congress and the Department of the Interior are utilizing the gambling industry, in order to fund an even more despicable entity; the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

The BIA is not the result of anything more than racist policy from our antebellum past. The Department of Interior’s BIA is very simply immoral and illicit conduct that we refuse to deal with under our laws. When will we have the courage to acknowledge, that no provisions exist within the Constitution, empowering Congress or the President, to establish or fund racial and culture enclaves?

Yet, the Federal Government has forced our local communities to accept a universally recognized criminal industry, simply to pay for its abuse of power. The BIA is not now, nor has it ever been, a lawful institution. These small isolated tribal communities of United States citizens  are not now, nor have they ever been, sovereign nations. If they were sovereign; they most certainly wouldn’t require permission from Washington to do anything! Let alone compete with Don Laughlin or the State of Nevada.

Maybe they are waiting for them to force us into accepting other adult amusements; such as prostitution. In fact, if I were the Nevada Gaming Commission I might be inclined to sue the BIA. On the other hand, if I were the City of Glendale I would take this issue to Federal Court today!

The BIA is a putrid carbuncle on the body politic of America.

It must be lanced and removed for our freedom loving society to become healthy.

The recent 3.5 Billion Dollar settlement of Cobell vs Salazar, has provided the American taxpayers all the proof needed to demand that the Department of Interior, end the reign, of the free World’s oldest and longest running criminal enterprise: The Bureau of Indian Affairs.The BIA is older than La Cosa Nostra by half a century. It is a 186 year old illicit government agency that is administering a racial segregation and purification program; in violation of the Constitution, as well as the laws of humanity. The BIA has swindled and plundered Native American communities with impunity for two centuries. Enough is enough!

No branch of government has the power or authority; to establish or, maintain racial enclaves such as the ones administered by the BIA. Neither the President nor Congress has ever had the legal or moral authority to fund this agency with taxpayer revenues. The BIA has survived because we have been defrauded by lies and subterfuge, until we became so deluded, we began to perceive this immoral and illicit conduct as lawful and, worthy of taxpayer support. We enjoy the fallacy; that we created these racial enclaves with the help, and for the benefit of the Indian communities. We have blissfully come to accept them as a lawful and morally acceptable method, to preserve their culture and heritage.

We should throw a bucket of very cold water over our heads, to awaken us from our reverie! Read the history of this antebellum, racist institution,which was born out of ignorance and bigotry of 1824 America. The BIA didn’t create their compounds to preserve or “reserve” anything. Preservation was not a noted trait of early Americana; especially the ones that were slaughtering American Bison by thousands everyday. We established and funded these racist enclaves, in order to eradicate their culture, so we could replace it with our own. Read more

Re:   Our sincerest apologies!

Dear Fellow Citizens,

Today is Martin Luther King Day:

“No one is free unless we are all free.”

We are passionate about equality and freedom. Freedom for the Sport of Poker and, equality for all U.S.citizens, including the Native American Indian Tribal communities. Our players union is battling for our freedom and liberty and, we are inviting your community to help us. We intend to ask our fellow citizens, who are languishing under government sponsored racial segregation and isolation, to join with us in attaining our goals.

Our union is attempting a quantum leap into the Twenty First Century. We are seeking your help in creating a new beginning. We are all aware the country has moved into a new era of social enlightenment, regarding integration, and cultural harmony. Unfortunately, tagging along under the protection of the government, is an unfathomable, antebellum institution, that should never have existed in the first place. It has survived far too long and, the time has come to remove the Bureau of Indian Affairs from the public trough.

The BIA’s hold and control over the Indian Trust Lands must be broken. Read more

Fm: International Card & Game Players Association, Inc.

Dear Committee Member,

A potential problem exist in your Tucson office, of which you may or may not be aware. Our players union was forced to file a State Bar complaint against an associate from your Tucson office. It is our genuine hope, that your firm does not condone the conduct of Mr. Ochoa. His conduct is at best unprofessional, and at worst it is criminal. A copy of our complaint, with a lengthy explanation, is linked below to our blog: www.icgpa.org.

There can be little doubt that we have been the victim of seriously improper conduct by Mr. Ochoa. However, we are not bent on vengeance, or even punishment. What we are passionate about is equality and freedom. Freedom for the Sport of Poker and, equality for all U.S.citizens, including the Native American Indian Tribal communities.

We believe that Ochoa’s actions displayed extremely poor judgement and, intemperate behavior for a professional. However, it has served to awaken us to the intolerable circumstance our Native American Citizens languish under, due to government sponsored racial segregation and isolation.

Therefore, we are suggesting a radical departure from the traditional course of action taken by injured parties. We prefer instead, to focus on the potential positive outcomes that could, ultimately benefit everyone, born of these unfortunate events.

We are attempting a quantum leap into the Twenty First Century. We hoped that you might join with us in a new beginning. We all can understand that we have moved into a new era.  Unfortunately, tagging along under the protection of the taxpayers, is an unfathomable antebellum government institution that has survived far too long. We must all insist that the Bureau of Indian Affairs be removed from the public trough. Read more
