The..."continued tyranny on humanity." Yessiree, that is what we are all about. Tyranny, oppression, hegemony, wanton slaughter of innocents and the whole nine yards. Someone should seriously consider changing the words on the Statue of Liberty to accommodate this new paradigm.
Seriously, it is a symbolic move and for the most part, I side with their perspective. We took their land for crying out loud. We should, as a nation, work harder to ensure their rights and freedoms and be awful proud of the integral part they have played in the history of this nation. Should Russell Means ( Last of the Mohicans ) incite insurrection as a means of separation, he knows the eventual outcome. Let us hope that it never comes to such a desperate act. He is by no means, a pushover. This guy means what he says and appears to be willing to undertake any measures to get there. We don't really want this to go any further. To some extent, vanquished or not, he has more than a leg to stand on, IMHO. This is a much bigger problem than it first may appear.
