[..YouTube..] @InfiniteMushroom I move to Canada 10 years ago and I woul dlike to move to ROL. How can I get entry to ROL, I am holding a Indian passport.
[..YouTube..] @mayawarriorprincess Hate, racism and profanity are part of white culture.
[..YouTube..] @locknez1munster Hate, racism and profanity are part of white culture.
[..YouTube..] the Americans came in and forced the natives into their citizenship. i dont see why they shouldn’t give them land. But then again Americans attack and take lands without any reasonable consideration.
[..YouTube..] Russell Means’ critics should read his autobiography to understand the hardscrabble life he led and what brought him to his worldview.
LicentiousSlut’s rhetoric is pure Neal Boortz. The very things he detests is what the Republic of Lakota is trying to separate from. Yet, Slut doesn’t want to see the Lakota get what is rightfully theirs via the original Fort Laramie Treaties of 1851 and 1868
The Lakota ARE VICTIMS OF FRAUD AND BETRAYAL in the most correct sense. They DO have legit grievances
[..YouTube..] How dshonorable of the first Americans to engage in “victimhood” policies. That’s what the the blacks and the females do. They are disrespected for it. You are no longer victims. You choose to be victims to get special treatment. Who is forcing you off your land now? Nobody. Wise Native Americans let go of the past. They are no longer effected by that which affected their ancestors. It is very unmanly to hold grudges. Traumatic events happen but they should not be used for political gain.
[..YouTube..] That is just silly. Why not have separate countries in America segregated by race then? Whites can have a country. Blacks can have a country. Females can have country. Why this separatist attitude? Why special treatment. Why tax exemption? We all face discrimination. Why do some think they are above us? This arrogant racist attitude infuriates me. Native Americans think they are superior to whites? How insulting.
[..YouTube..] Why do you want secession Russy. So your people can drink and piss their lives away without the repercussions from the United States of America. Your people have to be willing then you can make your move. Your telling me they wake up every morning and say that their lives are worthless due to the United States laws and regulations. What a copout. That’s just like the black american waking up today and saying I blame you white man for my slavery. Slavery was abolished 300yrs ago. Wake up dreamers
[..YouTube..] Riz Khan’s interview with RM is still timely.
Native Americans have been oppressed by the US government. RM is also right about land vs. money.
[..YouTube..] I’m a Palestinian American here in California and I support the Republic of Lakota. I respect and admire your efforts to overcome. Russel is so right when he says that in America with the property tax we can never truly own our property. With all of our human potential towards invention, why is it that we become stuck in box-like thinking. The box has to be be broken down; we must work outside of it to think of a better way of doing things.
[..YouTube..] I d love to see the U.N. officially recognize the Republic of Lakota and the extended boundaries claimed by it. The joke would fall on the U.S. gov’t because our treaties with the U.N. have to be honored! Russell Means and survivors of Wounded Knee should be declared as Founding Fathers of ROL
Borders must be declared and enforced. ALL U.S. military and State police have to leave. The ROL has to be careful about who they extend citizenship to. Lakota are automatically granted freeholder status.
[..YouTube..] I would love to become lakota would be something else would i be welcomed
[..YouTube..] waiting . all i wait on is the war. Ive definitely got ure back .. down south us natives own arsenals…. say the word! I VE been ready whens that fucking light gonna turn green..
[..YouTube..] im part chrokee part irish and I say here in oklahoma we should line these so called landowners up then rape and slaughter .followed by ignoring that future shit they call offspring. by the my wife will be native so dont kid yourself thinking your getting rid of anyone…….p.s. im rich bitch.hahaha wanna come dig through my dumpsters canadian sky diver .ill shoot you like the rodent u are ..get outta my trash cans ! LMAO
[..YouTube..] here in canada our garbage dumpsters are run by a company called BFI, The joke is that it stands for BREAKFAST FOR INDIANS. lol
[..YouTube..] Hello whats the current situation with Native Americans are they still in reservation and when do we see u owning land which is rightfully yours.
[..YouTube..] 10 of july is my birthday yay yay yay lolz
[..YouTube..] If this goes through, all native americans can join the republic of lakotah and get treated right.

>They owe them that.
Very funny.
How about this? I break into your house where you and your family live. I force you all out of the house and move my family in. Then one day I come to my senses and say: “Well, I should let you all live in the attic because I owe you that.”
[..YouTube..] I hope this succeeds. Warmest and most heartfelt wishes and cheers from Sweden!
We have territorial disputes with our natives, the Samé, but they’re not bad and the Samé themselves are very well off, they have the same healthcare as everyone else in this country, they live by the same standards as everyone and are very much a part of our society yet still retaining their culture and heritage.
I wish the US would do the same for their natives. They owe them that.
Gotta love the hypocrisy of white Americans of European descent “supporting” native Americans. There’s only one honest way to support native rights–drop off your assets at your nearest reservation (or casino) and leave the continent. Short of that, your words are movements of air that serve to make only yourself feel better.
Now, as to whether or not white Americans of European descent *should* be living on this continent… yes, they should. Why? Because for millenia humans have roamed the planet looking to better their situation. It is in fact how so called “Native” Americans got here. They too immigrated here, just earlier. They also took over what was here and setup their societies. Then, right or wrong, Europeans were stronger so they took the land. This is not unlike how human societies have worked for 10s of thousands of years. There’s nothing especially evil about the Europeans of 500 years ago. This pattern has repeated itself across the globe many times over for millenia.
And one day, perhaps a few hundred years from now at most, what we know of modern American society will fall, to something bigger or stronger. No empire lives forever. All we can do is respect one another and respect our society enough to buy more time before that inevitably happens. But the more we tear at each other and hate one another, the quicker that day will come.
So in the end, fact is this continent used to belong to who we refer to as “Indians” (ugh, can’t believe we still use that term), now it belongs to modern immigrated Americans originally setup by white Europeans. And barely any of us lived before the 20th century, so we had no control over that. At some point in the future it will belong to someone else. That is inevitable. The anger comes when you mentally time-box all of history into two simple phases of “it was ours, and you used genocide to take it from us”. Sad, tragic, and wrong? On the lowest level, absolutely. But at the highest level, spanning millenia, this is how humans work.
[..YouTube..] thats awesome !!! lets go lakota!! taino love
[..YouTube..] please make this happen!!!
i am indigenous from central america
and i really hope this goes through
[..YouTube..] i really hope and pray that these people can succeed in rebuilding their nation and culture if we north americans just stopped asking the natives to do everythings on our terms and let them rebuild their society on their terms there would be so much more success.
[..YouTube..] free republic of lakota hayaa
[..YouTube..] They promised us that as well,many dont know this.

[..YouTube..] Dont worry you didnt offend me ,I was being facetious.
The US didnt buy any land from any natives if fact the whole continent was basicly taken from the indigenous people with out paying for it.
The European realized we had no concept of land ownership and took advantage of that.
However the US does owe native tribes million and millions of dollars in past agreements and refuses to pay .

[..YouTube..] Am sorry brother I didn’t mean to offend you. I didn’t even know the U.S. brought the land from you guys at least not the Sioux anyway. I thought they just took it and put you guys on Reservation’s. From what I read and the movies I know they tired to offer the Sioux I think 1.3million or something like that for the Black Hills so they could dig for gold but they didn’t wanna leave which I wouldn’t either.
But hey you got a 100% supporter in me No Taxes i’D be their in less than 5

[..YouTube..] Dealz1988 said “They should just take all their money band together and Buy the land back legally”.
yeah buy it back the same way the US bought the land from us legally.
Maybe we should sign some documents with promises of of payment and call them treaties and leases and renege on them the same way the US has reneged

[..YouTube..] It’s so true. When we lose our language, we lose our memories, we lose our ancient ways. That’s why I say that governments were the great mass murderers, because a cultural genocide has happened to us. They rammed down our throats an “official” language.

[..YouTube..] The map of the U.S could redrawn so that the Republic of Lakotah could be born (at least a state with its own laws). A place where the official language could be Lakotah and English. For 500 years governments turned a blind eye to the Natives. Why the official languages in Brazil, U.S, Peru etc are alien ones? This is a issue that should have been adressed.

[..YouTube..] He should gather the support of all the native tribes in America. Sense the population of American indains is not very high. They should just take all their money band together and Buy the land back legally.
Because I can tell you now the United States is not gonna give it to them.
