Title: Petition for Selling Sioux Scalp On EBay
Post by: frederica on December 04, 2007, 01:50:44 am

Has any one seen this? Didn't know where to put it. I understand it came out over the weekend and EBay did withdraw this due to protests. I think this one is more than just stupid.  http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/NativeRights

I have a hard time understanding how <cave formations> speleothems, stalactites, and stalagmites are Artifacts-Grave-Related Items-and First Nations' Crafts.

Is it me that just doesn't understand that part of the Petition?

I ran across a flowery quote from Brooke Medicine Eagle while looking around at the petition sponsor's site link, Tribalamerica.com.
