, enacted in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, allows the federal government to work around certain laws in the name of national security.in 1988 also diminished Native Americans' ability to preserve sacred sites on federally controlled lands, such as national parks.
in North Dakota, citizens of the Standing Rock Sioux reservation complained they were not adequately consulted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Richard Monette, a law professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a tribal law expert, said it's rare for federal agencies to seek waivers in cases related to tribes and that the government simply doesn't consult with them as it should.
In a statement last week, U.S. Customs and Border Protection denied any biological, cultural or historical sites were identified within the blasting that is taking place in the Monument Hill area.
Illegals were not desecrating the grounds as they brought drugs, sex workers, and invading? Seems the wall would preserve it.
Who ever is doing the blasting might get cursed. Thats scary
The great white father is screwing them again
Tr💩mp cares for no one whose is brown, black no respect for anyone women, rule of law. He wants all of us gone
I am Canadian. Never visited Arizona. I want to. Looks like a gorgeous place, aside from that hideous looking wall. I hope one day to meet a lot you Arizonians. And those cactuses are so pretty ♥️
I don't get this kind if disrespect for native Americans WE should be having a holiday for them and thank them.
NBC doesnt give a shit one way or the other. They are addicted to the conflict.
The entire history of the United States in two sentences. Neat
This is a crime against humanity. It’s also just another day in MAGA paradise. Those Republican land owners are none too happy either.
The cool thing is that once Trump is gone, another president can have the wall torn down by executive order. Just wait a little while.
People are numb, this is not normal.
Your ancestors are dead. Life goes on. The living decide what is sacred and y'all are outnumbered.
Has anyone thought about why Canada didn’t build a wall in the 1970s to keep draft dodgers out, and those who couldn’t find other excuses to avoid military service. Those people went on to have successful professions and persecute veterans who suffered readjustment issues.
Sorry, you are not African-American. You don't have enough power.
We have had a lot of practice at trampling on Indian sensibilities!
Build the wall 🇺🇸👍🏻
Sue trump
trump does not care about Native Americans or any brown or black groups
This article is a little better, but if Monument Hill is an Apache burial site and there are 'remnants' of 'bone fragments' somewhere at this large mountain, please interview an Apache representative from one of the many federally recognized Apache tribes. O'odham ≠ Apache.
It’s always something. 🙄
In other news, 'sacred' artifacts held by the Vatican may not be authentic.
don't put quotes around sacred, it's not sarcasm it IS sacred
Not cool... What else can we do to these poor indigenous people? Trump 👎
And, has stopped all the dope to the indigenous in America! Who is more important? The living or the dead, guess the indigenous drug runners aren’t getting paid! FOX40
I think I'm just going to be preemptively angry about the use of quotation marks around 'sacred.' (now reading...)
Ther will be Karma. You absolutely do not disturb the dead.
I thought it was clear that there would be no disruption on native lands?
Nobody cares about the mound of dirt where your ancestors worshipped demons.
Why is it that everything the Native Americans do is “sacred”? Please explain.
Take them to court!
Good!
That's a problem. The government needed to compensate the land owners before using it...
Surprise. Surprise.
The border wall is an incredibly stupid and ineffective waste of money. Has anyone tried telling this to the budget-hawks in the GOP.
You knew this was coming.
