It is for this reason that I had remained somewhat closed mouth on the matter for several years, but what needs to be understood is that by removing us from the tribe they themselfs have taken what was a internal matter and pushed it outside the tribe, by placing us outside the tribe. I really wish that it could have remained inside the tribe, but we ourselves can no longer participate internally in tribal matters.<BR/><BR/>I cringe every time I write something and try my best not to badmouth my tribe itself, but only the very small portion which calls itself the CPP. Those who by nefarious means have taken control of the tribe, and brought about shame and disgrace to it.Luisenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01716990645661766960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-92011615971009620662008-08-21T12:27:00.000-04:002008-08-21T12:27:00.000-04:00I don't understand how these people can bash you g...I don't understand how these people can bash you guys for trying to get what is legally AND morally yours....and I would bet that the ones that bash you are still getting their 30 thousand a month...it is a threat to their per capita that they can't stand .....and they feel you must be trashed....I blame some of this stuff on our Government for letting the tribes get away with this stuff in the first place...you would think that the tribes would be thrilled with finally getting the cash cow in the form of the Casinos and be happy to spread the wealth..instead they get all greedy and become everything that an Indian is supposed to be opposed to......how many of the tribe members drive huge SUV's which are guzzling gas and ruining the environment??..oh wait...wasn't it the Pechnaga tribe that lied about preserving the environment and Indian artifacts and instead built a water wasting golf course??..and to all you bashers...I am not tribal...but an ex-Pechanga patron..who believes in human rights...which your tribe has stampeded over.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-84636577358884614402008-08-21T00:47:00.000-04:002008-08-21T00:47:00.000-04:00anonymus POSTED ON AUG.20..... the words "YOU DON...anonymus POSTED ON AUG.20..... the words "YOU DON'T BELONG", they sound so familiar, so i'm thinking that you are a Pechanga Tribal NITWIT WHO IS JUST REPEATING WHAT HE WAS TOLD BY THE CORRUPT "LEADERS" OF HIS TRIBE.
