DesertBull Report post Posted September 16, 2010 All of the Apache people that I have met have been very nice and friendly....Jicarilla, Mescalero, White Mnt and San Carlos. It's their land and they can do as they see fit....deal with it. Agree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Broken Wheels Report post Posted September 16, 2010 I too wish I could hunt on that reservation. I've met more Apaches that are along with what Chef here is talking about. But, like anything else there are good ones and bad ones. Some are lazy, but some are good, had working guys. You can still hunt elk, bear, turkeys, and antelope on their reservation. They believe the deer are sacred and therefore won't let white man hunt them. I wish it weren't so, but it is what it is. Besides, if we could hunt it we would have ruined it by now anyways Just for instance: what if we were to base our not letting anyone other then "the white man" hunt Elk on "our land" because we find them to be sacred? So we defeated the Native American in a war, established a place for the Native American to live, provide them with X amoount of money every month, feed, cloth and educate them and in return we are "not allowed as white men" to ever hunt what ever they decide upon? Very interesting how that all played out but then again, we kicked Japan's tail too only to rebuild it and they are better off then America is today! I am seeing our country erode piece by piece and everyone but the Anglo Saxon male is protected against pretty much anything and everything! Coincidence I think not but just consider it every time you drop a coin in the slot machine at your local casino which rakes in some serious bank and all for themselves! Taxed, I think not! Just saying... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
