I wonder if they can DNA test the bones and determine with any accuracy if they really are Geronimo’s (or another Apache?) If so, of course they should be returned for burial.

If they are the bones of Geronimo or any other contemporary Indian they should be returned for burial.
If they are the bones of any contemporary non-Native American, they too, should be buried.
Grave robbing is a despicable crime and the lack of response from the White House is troubling.
Treating the remains of dead enemies with contempt was a common and accepted practise in the past. By the late 19th Century it had become a repugnant habit generally restricted to the remains of recent American Indians in this Country.
Thanks to acts like this, we have the current idiotic federal law which extends protection to the bones of palaeo-indians who died thousands of years ago and have no certain connections to anyone living today. Kennebec man is a case in point.
Personally I find it disturbing that such secret societies persist today, that some of them are so eltitist in nature as the “Skull and Bones” society and that people so ostensibly opposite in political viewpoints as Kerrry and Jorge owe greater allegience to it, apparently, than they do to common decency.
