For maybe 70% of non-Natives, you are probably correct ... but in varying degree, the other 30% have demonstrated issues.  "Civil Comments" doesn't leave room for fully expounding upon an issue so charged as racial interactions.  I apologize for being overly sensitive, and reactive.  Yes, I have a chip on my shoulder, but only after 70 years of having wood broken over my back.  Were I black, I could count on the NAACP, but us Natives discriminate against each other, nearly as much as anyone else does.  If you're not from (name any village or region) you often have nothing coming.  And if you're a "breed", or were adopted out to the South-48, you definitely have nothing coming.  We have some good leadership who are trying to change things to the better.  And about all the crime in the Native villages ... we consistently report ALL serious criminal activities to the VSPO ... where in the cities, a lot of serious crime goes unreported.  So it just looks like we have more crime per capita.
