To supporters and minions of the BIA, and their cronies from the private gambling industry: Please stop attempting to frighten the Tribal governments, by implying they will loose their casinos, by invoking a claim to their property rights.

Hogwash! Exercising their property rights does not void the compact with the State. While it is true that the BIA is illicit, and the gambling industry is considered persona non grata throughout the civilized world, it is reasonable to fear that certain provisions of their coerced gaming compacts will be voided by the courts.

However, should any tribal community choose to retain their right to provide adult gaming centers and casinos, they will have our full support. We will battle against any effort to take back the gaming and entertainment centers or, any other small gains, they have garnered while being victimized by the BIA. Especially, since the government has been defrauding their communities for centuries.

There is no reason to presume that they will loose the casinos, since they were agreed to by contracts with the States and, they are not related to the issue of civil rights. The same goes for entitlements. Frankly, the Four Billion Dollars in damages that the Tribes hold against the taxpayers could become only a small portion of what is due to them for 186 years of victimization at the hands of the BIA.
