Support Six Nations Peoples, “Supreme Law” Treaties, And The U.S. Constitution Petition

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/754099980

Whereas, Indigenous Red Nations and Peoples have always been here upon Great Turtle Island (misnomer “western hemisphere”); Indigenous Red Nations and Peoples are, indeed, “indigenous” and did not “migrate” as one professor once speculated [bering straight “BS” lie] in a “theory” now too-overly quoted and reject the other goofy “theory” that “all humans originated from Africa”, and
Whereas, Indigenous Red “Indian” Nations and Peoples entered into international, legal, binding agreements with the united states government between 1776 and 1851 – called “Treaties” - that are protected from violation through Article VI of the U.,S. Constitution which states, “Treaties made with Indian Nations shall be the supreme law of the land, with the judge in every state bound thereby”, and
Whereas, Indigenous Treaties are the supreme law and continue to exist (only violated) and must therefore be honored by america; simply because of the 1851 Treaty’s age of 155 years (“Oh, that was a long time age!” denial quote of government officials), the most precious documents – similar in importance and reverence to american’s, such as the far older Constitution (230 years) and the even more archaic “christian bible” – a staggering 2,000 years of age, are still honored and respected, and
Whereas, like most other Indigenous Red Nations, the Nakota (Nakota, DaNakota, Dakota, Lakota) Nation, along with seven other Indigenous Red Nations of the northern Great Plains, entered into a very great “supreme law” Treaty on September 17, 1851 along Horse Creek in what is now called “northwest Nebraska” called the “Treaty of Long Meadows” to the Nakota Nation, also known as the “Great Horse Creek Treaty” to the Cheyenne Nation, and known as the “1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie” to the u.s. government, and
Whereas, the 1851 Treaty – the last legal document of law of the Nakota Nation – is protected from violation by Article VI of the U.S. Constitution, and Whereas, the 1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie is daily violated – it is not “broken” Like a light bulb with the switch only turned off – versus a light bulb broken and shattered, and
Whereas, these Indigenous Red “Indian” Nations and Peoples of the 1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie are not “conquered” – they are still here; with legitimate and legal land and resource rights issues pending. Indigenous Peoples did not “lose the war” – as they are still fighting for basic human rights and the right to Red Nationhood even in 2006, and
Whereas, Indigenous Red Nations are denied nationhood recognition by the “u.s. government” and in organizations such as the United Nations (UN), which, however, is currently being manipulated and used as a “puppet” by greedy governments and the large corporations who control them in order that the UN “rubber stamp” military actions and invasions against small countries for their resources (in the name of “god” and “democracy”; i.e., Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Venezuela; in honor of big oil, etc.), and
Whereas, ARTICLE 3, 1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie states “In consideration of the rights and privileges acknowledged in the preceding article, the United States bind themselves to protect the aforesaid Indian nations against the commission of all depredations by the people of the said United States, after the ratification of this treaty”, and
Whereas, in 1924, the u.s. government violated Article VI of the U.S. Constitution and the 1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie by attempting to force an illegal "citizenship act" down the throats of "american Indian" Nations (attempting to relegate them to "tribes"), and
Whereas, the illegal 1924 “citizenship act” has yet to be officially rejected by most Indigenous Red Nations and Peoples (except for the Six nations Confederacy who even issue their own passports for their Red Citizenry) - who never authorized such "act", and
Whereas, in 1988, the “Genocide Convention Implementation Act (Proxmire Act)” was finally adopted by the u.s. (after 40 years of rejection) which made it a crime to commit genocide against Indigenous Peoples and authorizes fines of 1 million dollars and life in prison to government officials who violate, and
Whereas, the powerful and mighty “Six Nations” peoples of the northeast region of Great Turtle Island (misnomer “northeast u.s./southeast Canada”) have always rejected the illegal 1924 “citizenship act” and each year symbolically walk across a heavily used bridge between “u.s./canada” - stopping thousands of american/canadian vehicles during the process, in order to expose this fact and their precious nationhood to the world, and Whereas, the Lakota (and seven other 1851 Treaty Signatory Nation’s) resources, along with the trillions in timber, tourism, mineral mining, and land use, have allowed “America” to become staggeringly rich and wealthy beyond belief, yet the true owners of this property are ignored, violated, abused, and belittled by the american government and ignorant masses who sanction such abuse, and
Whereas, the gold, coal, and numerous other 1851 Treaty Resources thefted, occupied, and transport illegally “across state lines” have yet to be returned or paid for and remains a human rights violation and clear act of genocide – in violation of the 1988 Genocide (Proxmire) Act, Article VI of the U.S. Constitution, and the 1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie, and
Whereas, Indigenous Red “Indian” Peoples currently do not “stand up” for the "anthem/pledge” because of the current and continuing occupation and theft of resources and violations of Treaties, Supreme laws, and Genocide Acts.

Therefore be it resolved that all good human beings upon Great Turtle Island (misnomer “western hemisphere”) must help the 1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie Signatory Red Nations and Peoples while encourage american lawmakers and church-goers into honoring and protecting their own Constitution, the 1851 Treaty, and the 1988 Genocide Act, and begin the process of ceasing the ongoing genocide against Indigenous Red Nations by u.s. government officials and the corporations dictating policy to them by allowing illegal acts such as the “1924 citizenship act” to continue.

Be it further resolved that the "casino" tribes – and especially the powerful and well-known “Sioux” Nation - within the territories now referred to as the “united states” begin to bring about awareness to u.s. citizenry and government officials and designate appropriate funding for and support of, the rejection, denouncement, and termination of, the illegal “1924 citizenship act”, which would allow the Red Nations to return to their original Nationhood status which would protect and secure their remaining lands and rights for future generations and might then admit them into groups such as the Untied Nations (should the group ever heal from its current corporate control and become a “peace” organization as intended).
