There are Lakota Dog Soldiers but they are not all really Lakota.

Look. I know Lakota culture, far better than you do given your constant retorts. I even speak some Lakota, if not well, because I've had to deal with so many Lakota people. I know the culture, I know the religion, I know the people and consider many of them friends. And, put simply, THERE ARE NO LAKOTA DOG SOLDIERS. The Lakota band of the Sioux (which is made up of three separate tribes, by the way) does not have a Dog Soldier society or clan. At all. Period.

You're saying now that not only is this subgroup calling themselves Dog Soldiers (which dishonors the REAL Dog Soldier societies, but which is vaguely understandable) that they're naming themselves Lakota, even though they aren't? Listen, buddy, let me tell you something: you won't get a member of another tribe to claim they're a Lakota anything. There's a saying in the southern half of the US - "We don't care how you do it in South Dakota." That directly applies to the Lakotas, who, all things considered, aren't very popular amongst other tribal groups.

What you're suggesting is that some Joe Warrior is going to call himself a Lakota Dog Soldier (which is a misnomer /and/ denying his own heritage, which may not be Lakota) because of AIM? Baloney. You don't know what you're talking about.

Then again, I figured out that you had no clue back when I got told that you decided AIM killed Jon Benet (you sick person - you need to stop eating the tinfoil and put it back on your head, fella), so I'm not entirely sure why exactly I'm bothering to respond to you anymore.

I gave you your satisfaction, read your other twisted thread (and boy was it twisted), and posted my reply. That's about all you're going to get out of me. My personal opinion at this point is that you need to seriously reread your history books, because you obviously were on some serious drugs when you first read them... and you need to lose your racism, because the Indian folks don't want to kill you or your children. Sheesh.
