They didn't join the US, the US joined them....which is exactly my point.
Unless there is a State of Lakota, there can be no succession.
Only something that was part of a whole can leave it. The Lakotas never CEASED being a Nation, so they never became legally attached to the Constitution. They are ONLY bound to the federal government by the terms of their treaty.
I applaud your enthusiasm, but until you understand a few Constitutional facts, you're just dancing around a legal point that doesn't even exist.
I’m not talking about word, but *actual secession* in which they have distinct borders, their own laws and court systems, which they are *prevented* from having right now, in terms of setting up the Republic of Lakotah (which they want to do).
So, the bottom line is how can Freepers help the Lakotah to set up their own separate country and their own borders, for which they will not be in the United States any more or be bound by any of its laws and have none of its officials within the borders that they have outlined (per the treaty they had, originally).
I would like to see that accomplished and be made a “done deal” for the purposes of *accomplishing* the actual process of secession from the United States...
