Pechanga Protest: Details of Attempt to Meet with Larry Echohaw, from the BIA Security Team and the Protest

Protest organizers Mike & Nancy Rios gives  first person accounts of their attempt to meet with ASIA Larry Echohawk, whose relative Walter Echohawk had scheduled a book review at Pechanga during this event.  Hmmm.

We arrived at Pechanga casino 8 am we decided to try to register to speak MICHEAL RIOS AND MANUEL RIOS JR went to registration and were taken upstairs to forum area , three women informed us we had to belong to an organization and to speak we had to pay a fee of 525.00 per person.  We requested a registration packet to read and they declined to give one. 

We were then escorted by security to first floor , there we met with Nancy Rios Kent Appel and Wayne Mong.  After some discussion we decided to request to meet with Mr ECHOHAWK at which time security called upstairs and two huge men from BIA came. IAM talking 6-8’!  Nancy said ARE you REAL bIG or is it me just too short?  To BIA security, Nancy explained to them she had submitted a request for hunter clan and Tosobol clan to meet with ECHOHAWK ON MAY 18,2011 which was WELL WITHIN THE TIME PERIOD REQUIREMENT. THE BIA AGENTS THEN SAID they were going to ask for us to meet ECHOHAWK we gave id and one showed his id they went upstairs.

They returned saying we could only meet with BIA RIVERSIDE REGIONAL DIRECTOR AMY DEUTSHKE AND SUPERINTENTANT EBAN so we were escorted to lounge area and we all talked Kent for hunters on DISENROLLMENT MIKE AND MANUEL AND NANCY ON moritorium, BANISHMENT LANDLOCK, AND AS TRIBES USE SOVEREIGNTY TO COMMIT CRIMES AGAINST THEIR PEOPLE.

PAM THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR SAID WE COULD SANCTION PECHANGA BUT WE WERE ALSO TOLD BY DIRECTOR THEY HAVE SO MUCH MONEY IT REALLY WONT HELP IF THEY STOPPED FEDERAL MONEY WE SPOKE OF ICRA BEING INEFFECTIVE NOT ENFORCEALBLE THE BIA SECURITY INTERUPPTED AND ESCORTED THE BIG WIGS UPSTAIRS WE WERE ESCORTED BACK DOWNSTAIRS


MIKE: When protest began we were introduced to Lieutenannt Moqnuin.  He and I disussed how many police would be protecting us and he was very pleased with us a group we had two motorcycle policemen and two in patrol cars and we needed them!  We had obscenties hurled hand gestures and one tribal member at least was pulled over for this.

We got a lot of support from city of temecula we gave out many fliers and got good response s of keep fighting you deserve your heritage at the end of the day we stood in fron t of waterfall signs down than Yolie McCarter nancys enemy stopped and was shooting video so I held up my sign no-Banishment no- moritorium no- disenrollment

Istill feel that a counrty wide unification must be enacted in order to bring the corrupt Tribal govenments down to a place with supervised enrollment by washington ,at the risk their may be damage to sovreignty reason being that the destuction of their own people is imminent WE had in numbers about one hundred at the protest.

OP: Protestors simply want the tribes to be held accountable for their apartheid, banishment, unequal protection.  We have heard of exhumations at other tribes, DNA tests required,then ignored,  homes destroyed at Oneida,  Black Cherokee descendents, as well as Creek denied their treaty rights,  water rights being stolen, tribal leaders telling lies to get free land.....   please add your voice to the protesters, share on facebook, increase the volume.

AGAIN, ANOTHERVIEW, YOU ARE MISGUIDED. YES WE ARE ANGRY. YOU KEEP CALLING US NON MEMBERS. BUT THE TRUTH IS WE ARE MEMBERS AND HAVE BEEN SINCE OUR BIRTH.WE HAVE PROVEN IT TO YOU WITHOUT QUESTION. IT IS YOU THAT CHOOSES TO IGNORE THE FACTS FOR GREED AND CORRUPTION, AND YOU KNOW IT. YOU CAN NOT CONTINUE WITH MISCONCEPTION AND LIES AND EXPECT IT NOT COME BACK AND BITE YOU IN THE A... THIS EXTERNAL FORUM YOU SPEAK OF IS ABOUT TO GET A TASTE OF RIGHTIOUS INDIGNATION FROM EVERY "NATIVE AMERICAN" TRIBE THAT HAS HAD THEIR HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATED. THEIR CONTITUTIONS AND BY LAWS BEAR WITNESS TO THE FACT THAT THE UNIVERSAL YOU, MEANING ALL NATIVE AMERICAN TRIBAL LEADERS, HAVE ILLEGALLY PURGED THEIR RESPECTIVE MEMBERSHIPS. WE CALL YOU "THIEF." OUR STATIS IS CLEAR. WE ARE MEMBERS, AND ALWAYS HAVE BEEN. THE NEWS MEDIA IS FINALLY STARTING TO COME AROUND TO OURSIDE, REALIZING THAT THE PLIGHT OF THE "NATIVE AMERICAN" HAS BEEN OPPRESSED LONG ENOUGH. YOU THINK THE GOVERNMENT CAN'T BE MADE TO LISTEN? HIDE AND WATCH, FOR THIS NEW MOVEMENT IS DESIGNED FOR JUST THAT PURPOSE. AS MORE AND MORE TRIBES GET ON BOARD, WE WILL BE TAKING BACK WHAT YOU HAVE STOLEN FROM US. OUR "HERITAGE." THE MIDDLE EAST HAS SHOWN THAT CORRUPTION AND GREED IS NOT ENOUGH TO SUSTAIN A DICTATORSHIP IF IT GOES AGAINT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE. FOR WE SAY YOU HAVE GONE AGAINST THE WILL OF THE TRUE "NATIVE AMERICAN." YOUR ATTEMPT AT "DAMAGE CONTROL" IS UNFOUNDED AND LAME AT BEST. YOUR FACTS ARE INACCURATE AND MADE UP AS YOU GO. SO DON'T TELL US WE ARE NON MEMBERS BECAUSE WE CAN PROVE WHO WE ARE. HOW ABOUT YOU "ANOTHERVIEW" CAN YOU PROVE WHO YOU ARE? I POSTED THIS ON THE TEMECULA PATCH, AGAINST OUR MAIN HECKLER, ANOTHERVIEW.

DEFINITION OF JUSTICE:
justice n. 1) fairness. 2) moral rightness. 3) a scheme or system of law in which every person receives his/her/its due from the system, including all rights, both natural and legal.
THIS GOES ALONG WITH TRUTH AND HONESTY. WHEN DOES THIS EVER COME INTO PLAY IN "INDIAN COUNTRY" OR WITH EQUAL TREATMENT OF THE LEGITIMATE "NATIVE AMERICANS?" WITH THE ADVENT OF THE CASINO MENTALLITY, TRIBAL LEADERS SYTEMATICALLY EXTINGUISH ALL RIGHTS AND PRIVLEDGES THAT SHOULD BE INHERENT IN ALL CONSTITUTIONS AND BY LAWS OF ALL NATIVE AMERICAN MEMBERSHIPS WITH EQUAL PROTECTON FOR ALL AMERICAN INDIANS..."JUSTICE." WITH CORRUPTION AND GREED AT THE FOREFRONT, TRIBAL LEADERS MOVE TO DISENROLL/BANISH, AT AN ALARMING RATE, WITH THE COMING OF THE CASINOS. THIS CAN NOT CONTINUE. OUR FIGHT IS "RIGHT." I WILL CONTINUE TO SAY WE ARE NO LONGER "SHEEP TO THE SLAUGHTER," AND THE TIME TO TAKE BACK WHAT HAS BEEN STOLEN FROM US IS "NOW." THE GOVERNMENT(INDIAN AFFAIRS) WILL BE MADE TO LISTEN. FOR WITH THE HELP OF ALL OPPRESSED "NATIVE AMERICANS," NATION WIDE ON BOARD, THIS WILL BECOME A "REALITY." WE ALL HAVE A SAY. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, JUST ASK. THERE ARE PHONE NUMBERS POSTED ON THIS SITE. SOME IN OLDER POSTS, BUT THEY ARE THERE. YOU HAVE RIGHTS UNDER TRIBAL LAW, THEY HAVE JUST IGNORED IT. AS THE "WHITE MAN" SAYS: "IGNORANCE OF THE LAW" IS NO EXCUSE.

4th of July weekend is pow wow at Pechanga. Good time to rally. 80,000 people a day go by the casino to attend.

Anonymous said...

nobody's going to protest people were paid off people are fucking pissed!

Anonymous said...

I was at the protest. I was disenrolled from pechanga but I will not protest dering the Pow Wow. We tell how these tribal goverments have no respect for tradition or customs then we turn around and do the same when it convenient for us. Now i will be at the Pow Wow with a Disenrolled or Indian Civil Rights shit on. And be walking around PROUD with it on. I hope to see other with protest shirts on.Here are some Ideas Disenrolled will work for fry bread or B.I.A Bribable Indian Agency.

I would think that the comenent to protest durring Pow Wow is an attempt to create a bigger issue. I would say it was posted by one of the CPP so that we may disrespect the tradition of the celebration.

I like the idea of wearing symbolic shirts. Nice try CPP (Corrupt Pechanga Person)

If your not willing to get into a physical fight for your membership then hang it up.

Take your disenrollment shirt off at the pow wow and stop your non sense.

Do like some of your other leaders did don't show up at the protest any more.

Now hes got the right idea,haha !

That is a threat to intimidate. Powwow is exactly the time to wear shirts; just don't enter with it on. Hmmm..what a spectacular sight of thugs and thieves revealing their lawlessness in front of witnesses.

Don't reveal tactics on this site. Ask Man about the element of surprise ucla.

The thing is, the people who wanted to meet with Mr. Echohawk didn't tell anyone until the actual meeting with his subordinates that they were going to protest the conference later on in the day. They just said that they were there to, if possible, attend the conference and to meet with Mr. Echohawk.
