What tribes originally inhabited Washington DC?

This statement means that, maybe, the USA will honor the Treaty of Fort Laramie and will give back unused lands to the original tribe that lived there.

Considering that the Europeans (White Man) selected places where it was easy to set up and live, that means that almost all of these places had people already there. So if he means it, most cities will be turned over.

I never thought that this admin would turn out to be so entertaining!

Well, actually ALL of Scandinavia, and Scotland, the Orkneys, the Hebrides, and maybe some other chunks of real estate. With 9,000,000 Sa'ami in America we need a lot of room.

(NOTE: America been very very good to Sa'ami ~ so nobody goin' back /s)

I thought Obama’s Indian name was, “He of much bullshit?”

Alas, we'd have to go back to Italy, Serbia, Greece, Romania, Switzerland ~ and kick out everybody else and give it to the Albanians (they appear to have been the indigenous people in that area).

All those other guys will have to go back to Bulgaria!

Be a tight fit eh!

Oh good. I’ll take a farm in Roscommon, Ireland, where my paternal ancestors lived before the Limey b*st*rds drove them off in 1820. Let me know the location when it’s ready Barry. You can leave the keys under the front door mat.

Can’t wait for the look on the faces of the lefties inhabiting ‘Indigenous Peoples’ traditional land of Manhattan, NY when the Indians hand the lefties a set of beads and tell the lefties to get the hell out of THEIR Central Park West condos.

The Indians were murdering and slaughtering each other long before the white man came to the Americas.

Maybe we should give the whole planet to the descendants of Adam and Eve.

“last year he signed a resolution passed by Congress “

Anyone have a clue what resolution this was? I don’t think it was a Senate vote adopting the treaty.

I would support this as far as returning the land with one condition. The government buys the property and improvements on it. It then bulldozes and removes every improvement on the property leaving only native trees and plants. That includes getting rid of gardens, lawns, parks, fountains, etc., etc. Then it can return it to the indigenous people in the condition it was when they either sold it or it was taken from them.

So does this mean that if some indian comes in your house and says it is his by virtue of it sitting on some land he thinks is yours that you have to quietly move out?

It would appear so.

I was driving up highway 95 north of Las Vegas last year and observed a string of wilting willow saplings every few miles on the road. There was no sign and it was obvious that someone had planted them. I talked to some locals in Tonopah (between Reno and Las Vegas) about it and they told me the local indian tribe (name forgotten) had planted the trees in a ceremony designed to return the "stolen" land back to them. The "stolen" land in question is the Nevada Test Site.

The Kenyan may want to set an example and hand the Test Site (millions of acres of federal land) over to the indigenous folks there in southern Nevada.

The collective leadership of the entire planet have lost their collective minds - it seems everything they do anymore is motivated by their hatred of the white people of the world.

Actually , research has shown that at one time (12-15 thousand years ago) America was populated by whites. White Americans didn’t steal land from the Indians, merely recovering stolen property!.

Native’s battles/wars over control of hunting grounds is not murder or slaughter; it’s survival of the fittest.

On the other hand when our government handed Natives free blankets tainted with small pox to eradicate thousands of men, woman and children, that is murder/slaughter… more like genocide.

According to the Albanians they were also indigenous to Detroit. Funny thing about Kosovo is that there is NO archeological evidence of any kind whatsoever that proves they were there before the Serbs, they still keep trying to pimp the Illyrian connection ad nauseum.

Goodbye Texas and Arizona. Start packing up in North Ga. A new Trail of Tears is coming to town.
