that way madness lies...


  as a white  chap

till now i was
more then just
 ill disposed 
to intervene 
in 
federal- tribal affairs

butfuck.....

================================


  I'm sure you've followed this story

  but any how

heres a recap

   about 5 years ago 
a joint action 
was filed in federal court 
by groups of
  cherokee  
seminole
chickasaw
 choctaw 
and 
 creek 

 the claims were gigantic

the immediate  restoration
of huge bolts 
of cotton south land 


the legal support for these claims
 was multiferious
to say the least 

actions legal left  undone

and others
 illegal but carried out
and
stretching  over decades 


from 
the hideously fraudulent
to the grotesquely bloody

from the 1814
 old hickory stick it to 
called 
 the " treaty" of fort jackson 

 back 
to the" treaty" of 1806

 past the  whole sale violation
of the treaty of ghent 



and forward
into deepest " sharp knife" Jackson territory 
 stopping long enough 
 to goggle over
  ' sharp knife's"
 master piece 
swindles

known as 
the great  " treaty' wars 
of  1816-1820 

and finally on into the trail of tears
west of the mississippi


well
at the time

I read about their noble suit

and said 

good luck gents and ladies

yuo'll need it

--------------------------------
now we all know
what  the record shows

their case is iron clad

judged by St Peter
it would be a slam dunk

between 1785 and 1835
for 50 years
these tribals
were
ceaselessly

" fleeced greased and deceased "

till they
finally 
 "removaled" 
themselves 
to west of the big river


t'was indeed
removal 

most aweful 
most  foul


-----------------------------

ok fine 

but now 
 chief 

try 
gettin a win 

in Uncle's court 

  
------------------------------------------
then 
after years of court wonderings

here comes this 
 thunder clap

 yesterday on the radio
this report:


the tribes

"in order to gather local support"


if  restored
 to their homelands
 pledge to adopt 
"en mass"
 anyand all willing
 resident 
 "black folk"
directly into the "tribal community"

" with full tribal membership
                                        rights and privileges "

heres creek chief 
johnny patchamapantees:

"'yes they'll 
 get to keep 
whats now theirs
and then some " 

"its our custom 
our  law
  our duty 
to adopt the remnants
of  defeated nations
that live among us
especially if 
they appear 
unable to protect themselves
 against other hostile  nations
  so to all you black folk 
now livin in our homelands
welcome 
welcome 
to our  council fires
 brothers and sisters"

" join us 
  as your ancestors once did  "
-----------------------------------------
in that last bit
 the chief  is obviously
 refering to 
the run away slaves
that formed 
a signifigant part 
of tribal society 
in the border lands
below the ever expanding deep south
----------------------------------------

jesus what a hell fire 

gents and ladies watch your scalps here

fuck

the red necks and peckerwoods
are already up nites

plannin how to 

" shoot the suckers  down 
red or black
shoot em down like dogs "

as old Davy Crocket  mighta said
