City of Temecula To Discuss Taking Money From Nation That Violates Civil and Human Rights

Yes, that's correct. The Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians, a sovereign nation who is now offering the city of Temecula, CA the princely sum of $42 million (unless, they get certain funds from the State, then it will be less) over TWO DECADES. Better to tell the "Pechanga" Tribe NO, Temecula. Would you take money from David Duke, or the KKK, or South Africa during apartheid? No? Then why would you take it from a tribe that violates it's people rights with impugnity? From the Press Enterprise story: Temecula would get at least $42 million over the next two decades to cover the impact Pechanga Resort & Casino has on roads and public services, according to a draft agreement between the Pechanga tribe and the city. Nowhere in the Press Enterprise stories will you find articles that: Pechanga has violated their members civil and human rights, which will be discussed at the New Mexico hearings on indigenous people in Albuquerque next week. Pechanga has stolen $200 million in per capita payments from members via unlawful disenrollments Pechanga has taken health care benefits to the tune of $12 million dollars from members. We KNOW the city council of Temecula is aware, as we've sent them many letters of information over the past five years. In that next two decades, rightful members of the Temecula Band of Luiseno Indians of the Pechanga reservation, will have lost $800 million dollars. You are taking money from our children City Council, Mr. Mayor DO THE RIGHT THING. Say No to Pechanga.

This is absolutely appalling.Im so tired of Pechanga buying everyones silence.No one seems to care about how many families and espically children this whole disenrollment situation is affecting.The still enrolled tribal members of Pechanga dont even care as long as they get a cut.Mark Macarro is a total disgrace to all Native People in this country.All he cares about is making his pockets fatter.What happend to us sticking toghter to try and get back from the government what belongs to us. We were once proud people working together to build something great for our children and for generations to come so that they can have a bright future without worry of how they can pay for an education, or homes or health care.It seems to me that the government is using the greed of some of these dispicable so called Proud Native Americans to further anihliate the rest of our small population and our leaders think they are preserving our true history.I have a question how in the hell can you go back into history and call our ancestors liars and say that they didnt know who was Really a person of any particular Tribe when you werent there?Mark Macarro and the others that are destroying our tribes and making a bad name for us all !!!To me Mark Macarro's name is EQUAL to HITLER.To all you who are taking the Blood money and not standing up for what is right shame on you!!I do not wish this situation on anyone including my enemies but mark my words you will more than likely meet the same fate as our famlies if you dont do what is RIGHT now!!!!I truly believe our Creator and our Ancestors look at all of you the Slient ones and the ones Perpetuating this Genocide with great dissappointment!!Just remember you cant take any of your blood money with you and you will eventually have to awnser for your sins in this life and possibly the next.Sleep tight your time is almost up!!!!!!The government thanks you for your assistance in further eradicating this nation of all Native Americans as well as giving our hard earned money to them.Congratulations!!!!!!!!

I believe that this article left out the exchange for allowing Pechanga to install 5,000 new slots in exchange for assisting the ailing City of Temecula. Oh please! The city that just spend millions on a new parking lot for the new city hall relocation.

Politics as usual!

The council unanimously agreed, seems that they care only for the money, they do not respond to e-mails unless you live in Temecula
