I believe that "he was going for my gun" is a convenient excuse for LEOs when they screw up.

Thanks for trying to clear that up. I know it is a really confused set of circumstances surrounding it.
I used to fish with a guy around there. I only knew him as "Eddie". Scary guy, scary friends. Once you got to know them though, nice people.

My nephew said it best. If a tribe on a reservation is truly a sovereign nation, why is there no American Embassy?

Technically, the Department of the Interior is just that.

But, unfortunately they are not on site(on the reservation) if a non-tribal member gets harassed/imprisoned by the tribe. Tribal laws do not necessarily reflect state laws. The FBI only intervenes on crimes covered by the Major Crimes Act.
(I,unfortunately, have had first hand experience with this)
