Oh, cry me a “F”ing bucket! Adults doing business with other adults isn’t a crime. Hay, Chief “What’s-Your-Name”, arrest the “tribal members who broke “tribal law” and shut you “pie hole”!!

I don’t get it. Is the government involved here? Was a government fiat issued, compelling native Americans to purchase beer and drink it irresponsiby? Were these stores on the reservation. Someone’s in heap-big trouble!
To: Osage Orange
I was working on my house and smashed the living be-geebers out of my thumb. I think I should sue Stanley Tools, they made the hammer ... and Home Depot sold it to me.

So a store now not only have to verify age but also residence AND laws in the location of the residence.
Here's an idea. Take responsibility for your own actions.

That beer store needs to be severly punished for kidnapping tribe members, restraining them while they poured beer down their throats, snuck cases of beer into their trunks, blackmailed them into selling it to other tribe members and ... wait ... what's that? Tribe members purchased the beer voluntarily?
Never mind ...

Adults doing business with other adults isnt a crime. Except when it is ... see the War On Drugs.

Here's an idea. Take responsibility for your own actions. We are talking about Native American Indians; they are the Holy Grail of 'Victim-hood'. Nothing is ever their fault, no matter what the circumstances; it's always someone else's fault.
Single motherhood? Illteracy? High School drop-outs? Alcoholism? Domestic Abuse? Unemployment? Drug abuse? Laziness? Criminal activities? Rate of conviction and jail populations? Don't ever blame the Native American Indians - or you'll be called a racist. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.
It's typically the White-man's fault.

Having been to Whitclay, the only thing there is liquor stores.
To: Osage Orange
Five million cans of beer between four stores or 1.25 million per store. That’s a lot of beer! How much is the average retail price of a can of beer?

the four beer stores ... sold alcohol to residents of South Dakota's Pine Ridge Indian ReservationInteresting. They apparently want the stores to refuse to sell a legal product to customers who happen to be Indian.
Isn't there a law or two against such racial discrimination?

“It’s typically the White-man’s fault.”
Who else is giving them all the welfare they want in order to buy 5 million beers a year?
It’s Whitey McCracker-Honkey!

Members of the Kwanzaa Liberation Front: The white man!
Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim: Who brings in the guns?
Members of the Kwanzaa Liberation Front: The white man!
Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim: Who brought in that disco?
Members of the Kwanzaa Liberation Front: The white man!
Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim: Who brings in that naaaasty-aaaazz Jheri curl?
Members of the Kwanzaa Liberation Front: The white man!
Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim: And who tries to put they
m-f’in foot up Kwanzaas azz?
Members of the Kwanzaa Liberation Front: The white man!
Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim: Thats right!
Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim: [Much later] And who brought in Britney Spears?
Members of the Kwanzaa Liberation Front: The white man!
