[QUOTE="MennoSota, post: 69089464, member: 382998"] The American Indian Movement occupied Alcatraz island in the 1970s and declared it to be Indian land. Indian Nations are designated as "dependant sovereign" nations within the United States. What this means is that they can do anything within their reservation as long as it does not break Federal laws. They are not accountable to the States in which the Reservations reside. As both members of their tribal nation and citizens of the United States, they are given the same right to voice complaints as any citizen or advocacy group in the US. They are welcome to voice their concerns on this issue, just as anyone on this forum is welcome to voice their concerns. Welcome to America. [/QUOTE]
