I would be shocked it there was. On another note, why can't we start putting slot machines in every bar in MN and use the profits for a good cause? This is discrimination, allowing one group (race) privileges that are not extended to other groups equally.

None of the natives alive today have had anything but handouts from the 'white man'. None of them were put on reservations...in fact, less and less live there each generation, because they know they are dead-ends. None of them were shot by 'cowboys'...most of the crime on reservations is native on native.
If you feel your great-great-great-grandmother was treated poorly, that is your prerogative. It is not our problem to give you things that others are not entitled to...that is called discrimination. When the word 'discrimination' can be used to get more stuff for you, you are all for it, but when the discrimination is reversed (legal gambling on reservations, separate legal system to the rest of the US, etc) you claim that is OK because your people were 'abused' hundreds of years ago.

we have ALL suffered hardships in one form or another, what is your point?...sooner or later you gotta get over it and move on, although many people don't want to move on because it would mean they would actually have to take inventroy of their OWN lives and actually be accountable for themselves instead of always being able to point the finger at Whitey and say it's his fault...it is just getting a little old is all.....
besides all of that I DO go the casinos because I enjoy it so don't preach to me, I am helping out the Native Americans in my own way, how about you?

Actually un"Incredible70" most if not all of the Indians in Minnesota were put on reservations. Their past "handouts" included the federal government never paying most of the money that was promised for their land or the food that was promised, not to mention a few diseased blankets along the way.
One of the few things they were granted was certain fishing and hunting rights, which the government also later tried to take away. The Supreme Court ruled that the treaty was valid, so they receive those rights because they were always entitled to them, not because somebody feels bad for them.
It's called the rule of law. How would you like it if your great-great-great grandfather bought farm land and somebody said today that deed or treaty is so old we don't have to honor it?

Well Incredible70 the Indians of today were not "put there", but their ancestors sure as heck were. What's your point?
You don't think we have to honor federal agreements signed years ago, just because everyone who signed it is now dead? So you don't think we should honor the Constitution?
If you don't like the Indians tribal laws or casinos, then don't go to their reservations, it's not that difficult.
