If I recall correctly this was done because the Indian tribes demanded it. The Army Core of Engineers destroyed the Kennewick Man burial site with bulldozers.

That's EXACTLY what happened. STUPID, especially when it hadn't been proven that Kennewick Man wasn't their ancestor.

When I think of American Indians I honor the part Sioux Pappy Boyington. I don't have much respect for their "sovereign nation" nonsense that gives them the right to casinos, tax free sales of tobacco and gasoline, and blocked examination of Kennewick Man.

American Indians don't pay for building and upkeep of roads leading to their casinos nor any roads in the state they live

5. Do Indians pay state taxes? Federally recognized Indians do not pay state income nor property tax if they live and work on reservation or trust land.

Do you find it ironic that we condemned the Taliban for destroying those Buddist statues, but then we (Clinton & Co.) turned around and destroyed this historical treasure in the name of our political correctness?
