Does this mean I have a legitimate claim to South Carolina?

Could you imagine Bloomberg watching all those cigarettes getting sold duty free?

He'd faint dead away.A few years back there was a story on local news about an Indian tribe in Rhode Island that was selling cigarettes on their land (reservation?) without charging state tax.There was a film clip showing RI state cops taking people away in cuffs...it even showed a cop roughing up a guy.I didn't hear anything about the final resolution of the case.

Okay, we’ll start giving it back with the UN’s piece of stolen land in Manhattan.

LMAO! Civilization has always wiped out the indigenous populations.

This is nothing more than uber bureaucrats trying to rule the world.
Nobody said they were smart.
But then again we have Obama in the White Hut.

They’re welcome to come and try to take it but they should be warned. Michigan has a stand your ground law.

I don’t have any cheekbones. Custer cut my great great grandfather, Limping Ox’s cheekbones off and none of his progeny have any. I want all of Montana for reparations.

In before anyone here tries to claim Virginia.

It’s mine. On behalf of my Patawomeck Tribe ancestors, I will be petitioning the UN to declare me ruler and rightful owner of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Ya’ll are welcome to visit though.

Another post took some of my thunder, but my stance has always been, how far do we go back? The Mexicans say they want Cali and southwest, Texas back, okay, did this land always belong to Mexico, oh that's right it was won from the Spaniards, so we should give it all back to them, but wait they took it from others, who took it from others, in fact Mexico was never a country till recently, the land was conquered by Spanish and then won in the revolution, so Mexico needs to give the land back to the Aztecs and the Incas, but I imagine they took it from others, and the America "Indians", I am so tired of hearing how they were all living in harmony singing Kum Bah Ya till the white man showed up. Bullsh*t, they were killing each other and capturing land for a long time before we got here, this goes for every country in the world. I call it "recent-ism", that is we have to give land back to those we took it from last, but it doesn't go any further. UN get the F*CK out of here you bloated, croaked, scandal laden, fraudulent, criminal, Jew hating, mussy lovin anti-american, anti-freedom pieces of SH*T.

I definitely think that Manhattan and other parts of NY should be given back to the Indians. Only Indians should be allowed to live on those tribal lands.

Anaya said Rosebud is an example where returning land taken by the US government could improve a tribe's fortunes as well as contribute to a "process of reconciliation".

The UN could always say the US could give its ‘donation’ to the UN that keeps it afloat to the Indian tribes.
