Indians were promised many things in old treaties;only a very few promises were kept.

Interesting that the very similar concept of sovreign tribal lands was denounced by the U.S. officials when locations were in the former Republic of South Africa.

Yes, but this casino is 90 miles from “Indian land.”

well, they are sovereign entities, but then, Indians are American citizens too. Thanks for the info. Sounds like they can make their own laws.

Yeah, but you’d think states could regulate the advertising of the casinos and whatnot beyond the Indian-owned property to as to make them less than a viable option.
