Wintun Tribe drops expansion plans

The economic down turn as you added to the story is incorrect as usual with your reporting. What caused this was yolo county trying to extort money for the tribe in an attempt to offset their budget deficit. Good for the tribe. Sad for yolo county. Someone really needs to run for supervisors for west sacramento, and woodland.

Yolo County should not be trying to extort money from the tribe but also the Wintun's should be content with what they have. They are already the richest yolo county citizens and there are so few tribe members. Only about 23 or so. They dont have to be so greedy!! They get money rolling in every month from what they have and not one of them has to work ever a day in thier life. we should all be so lucky.

We killed them. We drove them from their lands. We “let” them live on reservations which were the places no one else wanted to live and now we call them greedy. If the stick it to us, good for them. Payback is a bXXXX.

I agree with you. Syntax and basic comprehensive skill are not shared by everyone in this area.
You sir are a patriot.

You sir are an idiot. Exactly what part of "we" actually killed them or drove them off their land? We as in you or I, werent even alive 100 years ago and neither were they! Those people who are benefiting from the casino may have ancestors that are Native American but let's face it, they have a higher ratio of other blood, mostly mexican that they are not getting paid for. Not to mention, if they wanted to preserve thier race, they would want to blend into this melting pot and teach their future generations the values of education and old fashioned work. Instead I personally know several of tribe members have already died from alcohol and drug abuses because they have too much money to kill themselves on. Now I ask you, who is killing them now?
