No, George, this is not about guilt, on my part...it's about being really, REALLY pissed off!

It's about a world that doesn't seem to care. They have shoved the American Indians out of their conscience and that's that.

Yes, I know there are many good people who haven't done this, and who work hard to bring harmony and healing wherever they can, but in the main, it's 'out of sight, out of mind'...and THAT is what has to change.

Did you read those articles about the children, to this day, right up to this day, being taken from their Mothers, put out for fostering, then adoption?   The States doing this are even breaking their own laws! They are also putting the children with White families, not even *bothering* to ask the American Indian Foster Homes to take them in!

George, there's Serious Shit going on out there!

Did you know they've just moved Leonard Peltier, again, to USP Colman, in Florida? He's now hundreds of miles away from his family and friends and they are having terrible difficulty even getting to see him now, because the bloody system is making them dance through hoops..Even his lawyers can't get to see him easily any longer!

They've put him in a top bunk bed, knowing that he has a permanent leg injury, making it really, really difficult for him to get up there...

He's only recently out of solitary...after being stuck in there for almost 4 months, in temperatures of around 120 degrees at times!

They don't want to let him out because he's one of the Leaders of the AIM..and God Forbid they should EVER do ANYTHING that may give the American Indians their Strength, Passion and Pride back...So they keep him locked away, as a message to them all that this is what they think of them...

This is so, SO wrong, George!!

Last week I rang USP Colman. The young man I spoke to didn't even KNOW who Leonard Peltier WAS!   He finally found him on his list...then I told him Leonard's story. He was actually filled with compassion afterwards..and said he'd try and pass my concerns 'up the line'...

WTF aren't they paying the money they give to the States who take the Children, into making life SO much better for the American Indians???? These States get paid a small fortune for every child they take into Care! DOUBLE what they get for many other children, as ALL American Indian children are classed as 'Special Needs' children, apparently..

And WTF are they still described as 'Savages' in the Declaration of Independence???


No, There is something rotten in the State of America!!
