“The natives have legally valid treaties...”

Just out of curiosity, how native are the natives? Is their DNA predominately American Indian, do they speak a native language as their primary language at home, do they live in native structures....? I am just asking because in the east where I am, the Indians are not particularly Indian at all except when it comes to asserting special rights like operating casinos.

Speaking of treaties, I also question if treaties can trump state sovereignty. I wouldn’t be surprised if federal and state liberals are pulling the treaty card for smoke and mirrors.
