Guess someones hogan ain't quite full enough of greenbacks yet huh? So, IF they protest, will they be able to beat the dapl record for trash left behind? Plus abandoned dogs and a dead body or two?

...Tohono O’odham Nation’s Vice Chairman Verlon Jose threatened protests similar to those known as ‘Standing Rock,’ where environmentalists protested the Dakota Access Pipeline,...

How'd that work out?!!!!

A Much Better Idea:

Move to Mexico and take your like-minded lackeys with you

I recall someone once saying "elections have consequences" ... Build the wall already.

They should work on throwing off the yoke of the BIA.

Tohono O’odham Nation. The Tohono O’odham Nation governs four separate pieces of land for a combined area of 2.8 million acres (4,400 sq mi)(larger than Delaware and Rhode Island combined), making it the second largest Native American land holding in the United States. These lands are located within the Sonoran Desert of south central Arizona and are directly exposed to the Mexico–United States border for 74 miles. Importantly, their tribal range overlaps with Mexico, though that is non-reservation land.

And yet it has only 28,000 tribal members.

Someone should explain to Tonto what his name actually means (from the Spanish "tonto") before he starts trying to inform the rest of us. In Spanish, "tonto" means "stupid."

Who'd-a thunk, eh?

Smells like a shake-down to me.

I thought we outgrew triblaism at the Treaty of 1868. Oh but then there was The Battle of the Little Bighorn, guess not. Oops then their was Wounded Knee. When does it end? Forget the pipeline protest.

I’m quite sure there are other tribal issues to be mentioned, just didn’t want to go overboard, although we should not vacate the subject without mention of two agencies not very helpful in the process, IHS, and BIA.

Federal law isn’t much help either, with the bad culture enforcement bill, ICWA. That would be the Indian Child Welfare Act. I’m surprised that on top of all the welfare/cultural destruction going on the tribes aren’t persuing reparations.

Maybe they can not build the wall through the reservation? Or, build a gate.
