Delayed Election Results - MisinformationRamona, Sat Nov 21 9:53am

Christian AllianceAnonymous, Tue Nov 17 11:19am
I believe this Christian organization and I do not believe that they are making up lies. What happens to federally enrolled children can affect all family members whether they are enrolled or not. What is happening on reservations and off rez regarding Indian children is appalling. The ICWA was begun as a way to stop... more

dont hate the hatersAnonymous, Fri Nov 13 6:23pm
They are sick people who cannot tolerate other views. Everybody has a right to information. The haters only draw more attention to the info, so they perform a good service even if their intentions are to silence others.who can they really hurt? Nobody but themselves.

Let's have a real, factual debateLawrence, Tue Nov 17 12:47pm
Assmisa posted that CERA was good for Indian communities. I responded that CERA was anti-Indian. Assmisa posted that ICWA was being used to take Indian children from Indian families. When I rebutted that, her and her clique began the personal attacks. So let's get back to the issues, shall we? Is CERA anti-Indian or... more
