Is there a map?

I run through Oklahoma regularly and those tribal police will really scalp ya.

Finally, Elizabeth Warren can return to her homeland.

After this ruling, there have been several articles written about Judge Gorsuch’s previous judicial rulings regarding Indian Tribes. It seems that Judge Gorsuch has a predisposition to rule in favor of Indian Tribal rights over American state and federal law.
Gorsuch was very highly ranked by conservative think tanks from which President Trumps judicial list was generated. Including, The Heritage Foundation, among others.

Should have taken our own scalps.

Interesting. So that half of state is no longer under state control? Stop paying state taxes if you live there? And cities now report to tribes? Will tribes modify citizenship to allow for non-Indians?

Think this will end up like the 1880s Oklahoma Indian Territory in which Tribal courts caught tribal offenders, tried them and executed them without interference from the Feds?

Whites committing crimes in Indian Territory were chased down by US Marshals and taken to Judge Parker’s court in Ft Smith Arkansas where many ended up dancing a jig at the end of a rope. We could use some of Judge Parker’s justice throughout the USA today.

.... So the Indian Territory is now under Tribal Law? What about ownership of property??? If you own a home or property in that area ... Do you actually own that home or property any more??? How will the tax structure be set up .... Yup ...... We live in interesting times ...... Now .... What about all of the other states .... Are they about to pull the same legal move?

... Yup.... Interesting times .....

Deep state federalizing states... nothing to do with Indians.

ANd how cynical of supremes to take up the arguments of a serial pedophile but ignore the cases brought up by law abiding citizens on the 2A to its floor.

Interesting. Now how many other areas will be brought into the same legal wasteland? Being in PR right now, maybe I’ll end up under Spanish jurisdiction when this is over?

So after Andrew Jackson’s(D) trail of tears campaign, Southern Democrats took some non-legislative shortcuts to create another slave state? Is this the same land the homesteaders had to race each other to grab the land they wanted?

I am waiting to hear that all the Federal & State Cigarette Tax Revenues have to be rebated to the tribes or something.
