Okay I have to say one thing I think this is great. We were completely in the wrong when we came into this country and took over the Lakota's and many other Native Americans lands. It's really awesome that they have been working so hard and getting this for themselves.
Why does this get me really scared though?
Think about this. Right now we have a president who likes to shoot first and ask questions... strike that he doesn't even ask questions we ask them later. If you have been reading Digg and looking through a lot of their not so public news too you'd probably know that all the President has to do right now is declare a state of emergency and he can have our country lock, stock and barrel. A large chunk of our country succeeding and becoming it's own nation can be construed as a national emergency. This has got me freaking out it ways that I really shouldn't be but I really don't think our government nor any of these states are going to sit idly by while large chucks of it disappear.
