The Hardrock chain of everything from hotels to casinos, was purchased from the British company by the Seminoles for around 965 million dollars, I believe, and it grosses about eight-hundred dollars a year. Good.
I'm glad to see my people expanding thier business ventures. \\:D/

Do you consider every indian tribe "your people?" If not, where do you draw the line?

Yes, I consider the redskinned race my people entirely, and I don't mean folks with bad sunburns.
Some tribes grudge one another, but for instance, a white guy considers the next white guy, even if his ancestor originated from Holland, to be a white guy like he is.
So yes, all my people, and easily i would brain someone to save one of them if it had good reason.
I consider that it goes deeper then most racial binds. The culture absorbed an entire racial class, we Indians, and made it close, like a family minus all bloodlines.
Ta-da.

It's funny you say "we" Are you Seminole? I don't consider companies like Microsoft or IBM "ours"

I think it is awesome that the Indians are becoming large business owners, they are realizing the American dream.

My father is part Choctaw, I suppose I am too, but you wouldn't know it by looking at my blond hair, blue eyes and freckles. My dad has black hair and tans really well. I burn when I turn on the lights in the morning.

I grew up around the Klamath tribe, they about ruined themselves with the government payouts of the 70's and 80's. Blew their money on Cadillac's and booze, it was a sad sight to see.

I don't like the slots at the HR by me. They give you a ticket and you win tickets! I'd rather hear the sound of coin baby!

For the record, Cherokee, my Dad's dad was a doorstep baby, and known to be Cherokee. But I dunno, I just consider myself an American uber-honkey.

"Big City After Dark" baby! :thumbsup:

Speaking of "dark", I've always found it fascinating how waaay more Americans undoubtedly have African blood flowing somewhere in the thick old boughs of their family tree than Native American, and yet I've never even once heard a white guy brag about, "Oh yeah...y'know I'm 1/8 negro." :wtf:

No, a Cherokee. Cherokee is a tribe and i am a man of. But, i consider the civilized nations even the heathens as my brethren.

Wow sounds like the Seminoles got a pretty sweet deal, 965 million dollars for business that grosses about eight-hundred dollars a year. I wonder how many blankets and magic beads the Brits had to kick in to close the deal.

not much, but probably had baked beans on toast on the business table for meal.

Then you do see things different than whites do as you mentioned in your previous posts. Not that there is anything wrong with that. White people are not allowed in our PC environment to look at each other as brothers.

A thread with racial undertones, and not one comment from Hole. Strange.
