RE: The Tragedy of Ishi, Contributed by @donkeypong
I have a special interest in all things related to Native American culture. My husband's maternal grandmother was Mohawk and we live in an area surrounded by reservations- what remains of them. I've been gathering information on the Seneca and Cayuga native tribes- I live in between lakes named for them- they have been fighting with local governments over a land dispute for a decade or more.
I'm sure the university did the best they could in the situation that was presented to them. And now I'm interested in checking out those books and movies :)
You live in an area that is very rich in the history of those tribes.
What they've been fighting with is not local government but a franchise of the federal government which is not government but a Corporation without a contract, fraudulently trespassing on the free, sovereign and independent people who were here for millennia.
I realize that it's generally the federal --corporation involved with this, but in our area, local governments are most definitely involved in this. It's a bit of a clusterfuck actually- a few years back a guy who doesn't live far from me, drove his truck through the window of a local office, this after someone else set fire to a building. And the two tribes are at war with each other, one claiming the other has 'sold out'. There was a picture in the paper of one of our local politicians shaking hands with the chief of one of these tribes, then next I heard that Chief's place was vandalized. I can't remember who is on what side at this point. I know that they settled for a sum of money for one piece of land they were contesting, I'll have to find out if the others are ongoing.
There is a really large reservation near Batavia though. I love going there for the simple fact that no local law enforcement is allowed lol.
It's a misnomer, as local or not there is no government without consent of the people and "The People" have been dawning the title of servitude to the "government" for over a hundred years, in turn saying that employee of the government delegates the power and authority to government yet who came first, the chicken or the egg... and in this case government had to be there for citizenry to exist.
One cannot be both master and slave. Either it's "the people" or it's citizens.
Considering that the federal government is a corporation and the state government is a franchise of that corporation and the municipal is a franchise of the state it's all federal. The treaties between the nations and the federal are then in turn visages of agreements between nations as the Federal is not a nation.
This is the crux of the situation: we haven't had our Republican form of government for over 150 years and before that the federal government had overstepped its bounds invalidating it's oaths and limitation and acting therefore outside it's authority in regards with The People (wiskey rebelion, too bad nobody had the guts to spit in Washington's face or his troops and tell him to fook off their private property as they are not subjects to the government but the government is subject to them, when he was toppling liberty poles over) and the natives (every single treaty ever struck between the natives and the king/government/federal). If it's acting outside the framework of government it cannot be government, it's only despotism. We are internationally recognized persons, we are free, sovereign and independent people, and our employees are treasonous buffoons who've been at it for centuries press gaging and subjugating their employees, us, when it is completely our duty to subjugate them and they hath abide by our orders or they get the boot or bite the bullet.
Fuck the police, they are nothing more than the predecessors to the slave catching patrols, policing for law is like patrolling for fires or ambulating for accidents.
Haha, I forgot who I was talking to for a minute. I always value your input and information my friend, especially your passion.
If you happen to check out my most recent post you'll see where I'm at currently and why I'm going to bow out of this discussion- but hopefully this post gains traction, I'm sure that someone will jump in ;)
Well said :)
