I wonder how long it will be before we see legalized prostitution on reservation lands?

No they will not earn enough to buy their land back. But God willing they can earn enough to move themselves into a prosperous future.
The various tribes have been shat upon by the “Great white Father” so many times, I can only pray that this and other endeavors make the entire tribe wealth beyond belief.

Reservations are a country inside a country.

This gives a new meaning to “High Rollers.”

“Can somebody explain why it is legal to have casino gambling on Indian reservations, but its illegal in many states for you or I to open a gambling business?????”

It is the Indian Nation and the same laws do not apply and I approve.

Like I said to a friend when we walked into the Indian casino before a concert and saw all the ashtrays: it’s like a whole other country. Depending on the state there’s some laws around it, but reses don’t have all the same laws as their state. If whites, blacks and Asians want to live on crappy reservations with no job opportunities other than casinos they too could have casinos.

Probably give them the pot for next to nothing then sell them chips and drinks at a huge markup. That would be brilliant.

Residual tribal sovereignty, pretty much all that’s left of the otherwise abrogated treaties between these United States and the American Indians. They get to make their own laws on the little reservations they were herded into (though incoherently can only run gambling operations if their reservation is in state which allows any form of gambling — state lottery? Your Indians get to run casinos).

ironic with the rate of alcoholism in the indian community that they would seek to further push drugs on their population and now the rest of us....

or is it the great American indian tradition to sit around stoned?...

"South Dakota Tribe to Open Nation's 1st Marijuana Resort"

Where are they going to find a statue of a white cigar store pothead to mount at the entrance?

To permit is to "push"? George Orwell, call your office.
