In response to: Gayle Andrews: A "Woodwork Cousin"
Peter, if you read through quahogs comments, that person is not well and I would not dignify any of it with a response.

spotted, when you have been on as many rez's as I have, then you will understand segregating doesn't work for natives, and only makes things far worse. It is a very, very poor solution.

Natives used to be indignant about reservations. Rightly.

There are other desperate groups of people. And they didn't resort to what the Mashpee did and are doing.

There is nothing romantic about reservations.

The Falmouth and Barnstable District Courts are going to be deluged for their criminal records. And by those who are now trying to get their criminal records sealed, like Marshall did. There was a crime problem before the Vietnam hero-rapist. Now it will be more drug and crime money. And who will pay for that? How much more in 'reparations'? Don't ask Cadillacman, he's too busy in China, and very excited about meeting Trump.

Reservations in Middleboro and Mashpee now. Due to the noble and sovereign Glenn Marshall. Watch all their criminal records come tumbling out.

quahog, 'you people'? you sound like crusader: and when you have achieved your goal of 'humiliating' 'everyone' with your 'brilliance' let everyone know. society as a whole regards you as dangerous, with or without your lithium. Try section 8 housing and more heroin.

In response to: Running From Their Own People
The 'secret' meeting was about building section 8 housing on the land that was donated to the Mashpee. The Massachusetts Drug Task force made a major attempt to clean up the heroin problem on CC, especially Mashpee Village last year.

In response to: Running From Their Own People
Despite the Mashpee tribe's desire to be 'the only casino in Massachusetts,' Patrick said three facilities would maximize revenue.

O'Connell said the tribe could go the commercial route to save time or hold out and wait for a federal determination.

But by then, five years in, O'Connell estimates, competitors could be operational before the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe even breaks ground.

Move quickly, rob fast!!!!! Noble and sovereign!!!!!

Very few are buying it. Sell-outs.

And Cadillacman is the worst of the worst of sell-outs, he didn't rape like Marshall, but in terms of political astuteness, pretty much the same.

Massachusetts as we have known it is now gone. And I don't mean CCcrazy. CC used to be a sweet place to visit. Whomever voted Cadillacman and Marshall in now have responsibility.

What next? Hillary? Osama?

Just vote in the mansons. same difference.

In response to: Lottery History Tells the Future of Casinos?
Steven P. Bingham and Amelia G. Bingham have requested a list of the names and mailing addresses of all property owners in Mashpee as one of their lawsuits, this one seeking to 'reclaim the town of Mashpee.'
Native American law experts have questioned whether they can revisit a suit that was dismissed by a jury, appealed, and eventually denied by the US Supreme Court.

They believe they can reclaim the entire town of Mashpee based on a deed from the 1600's.

Makes me proud granddad was heckawee.

Or Boo Ya.

We gotta exhume him first to see who he messed around with...probably Hiawatha...he was such a mutt....

'Rationalizing Irrational Behavior:
When people are engaging in rationalization, it may appear pathological, as if they have a desperate need to justify themselves or are cynically telling lies they couldn't possibly believe themselves....
Self-delusion, or cognitive dissonance, is rationalization in order to impress others, reaffirm 'moral integrity' and protect 'self-concept.'

Like the concept of people (v. the umbrella term 'natives') who are noble, peaceful, and sovereign.

All peoples are natives of somewhere on this earth.

Global migration.

Now a wamp-card-in-wallet is not only a get-out-of-jail-free pass that taxpayers will have to foot the bill for, but they will be responsible for protecting CC's national park lands?

The fraud goes on and on.

I gotta go exhume my grandfather. We are the heckawe tribe, from somewhere in Canada. He's gotta be at least 1/16th native. (He fooled around.)

It is you, Siooma, whose tights are pinching and who looks and sounds absolutely ridiculous. Direct answers to direct questions? Obviously not from you. It is your panties that are in a bunch, so get over yourself. CC is and has been going backwards, not forwards into the 21st century. Although some of us, whose panties are not twisted, are working toward that goal. When you have something of value to add to the discussion, please let everyone know, wink, wink.
11/01/07 @ 2:10 pm
Sioommah,

Monponsett has it all over you:
Call me what you will, bu I'm starting to not want the Wamps in charge of our casino development. These guys have fouled up everything from Metacomet on, and any serious betting sort would be going against them with both fists at this point in US/Wampanoag history.

I think it was Seneca- he was actually there at the time, you see- who knew how that Newport Viking Tower story ended, but maybe it's time to bring the Norwegians into the situation.

If Massachusetts doesn't stop messing around with my ability to conduct business with a legal sports book, I'll be forced to step into the situation myself.

As a distant-but-legitimate relative of the Boo Yaa T.R.I.B.E. (I worked with Monsta O and Ganxta Ridd on several skits while interning for MTV, back in the day), I have more than enough clout within the T.R.I.B.E. to enter into negotiations with Gov'na Patrick in an effort that will plop that casino right into underdeveloped southern Plymouth by March 2008.

Wink, wink all you want, then answer the questions. Boo Ya!

'Global' does not mean insular, small-town, corrupt, political maneuvering.
And it was Dopey who said Ho Hum.
Like small-minded, dopey Cadillacman (whose wife never shows up at that creep's side).
Or Glenn Marshall (there's a true Mashpee for you).
Or McGowen, such a sweet, kind man.
You are who you are.
Embrace it, accept it.

And now back to the news:

Sean Murphy has done his homework.
The Mashpee band has been exposed as corrupt on a global scale.
Let's hope the BIA and the Gaming Commission stonewall them for years and years to come, until all of the facts of the mysterious enrollments and finances are documented.
Ferson, Hendricks, greedy fools do rush in.
The Mashpee will still have to deal with all of their very angry neighbors who dislike crime, dishonesty, and fraud.
--------------
'Are members of the Mashpee or Aquinnah required to prove that they are descended from ancestors listed on an 1880 census using birth, death, and marriage certificates?

What percent bloodline is required? One-eighth? One-sixteenth?

If a person/member has any type of criminal and/or drug history, are they removed from 'enrollment'?'
----------------
The answers to these and other enrollment and financial questions/inquiries must be forthcoming before any further corruption by the Mashpee is allowed.
Very few now believe they are anything except very greedy and very ruthless Americans.
10/31/07 @ 1:16 pm
Boo Ya!

Stick to the news.

deepbluesea,

you have probably raised the manson3 from the dead and to a howling level, with your dogs baying for meat comment.

not a great thing on all'hallow's eve.

they're like zombies, they never die.

Walter was being polite.

He thought you WERE a dude.

In response to: Mashpee: A Question of Fact vs. Fiction
'Gov. Patrick’s legislation, which is soon to be debated in the state Legislature, gives preference to federally recognized Native American tribes in Massachusetts, which both the Mashpee tribe and Aquinnah tribe are.

The governor has not said what specifically that means or whether the same preference will be given to two tribes in competition with one another.

'All of the Middleborough land included in the tribe’s application to establish a reservation with the federal government is now in the hands of the tribal council’s investors.'

Follow the (pertinent) threads.

Natives have always warred against each other, long before 'whitey' arrived.

Competition.

Natives are, and always have been, as American as Donald Trump.

In response to: Mashpee: A Question of Fact vs. Fiction
CC is prepared for the drastic crime rise from a slum-rez in Mashpee, when CC crime, drug use, and unemployment is already reknowned, AND for casinos all over Mass., right? With the incompetent guv at the lead? Follow those evacuation signs right out of taxachusetts if you do not understand what's going on by now. Consider moving to upstate New York, with the Aquinnah. They've pursued the inevitable in a more dignified way than the clam-scam clan.

CC has enough crime, corruption, idiocy, and incompetency already. How much is enough?
