Oooh Felix! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]Now you're talkin'!! [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]Cheers buddy! Thanks again for the congrats everyone! [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]And yeah, Ian, they do have a casino. Fancy a game of roulette? [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]Good for them tho, because they used to live in terrible poverty and they're rich now. They're the only tribe I know of to have their own settlement, meaning they purchased the land as a tribe themselves, and were not put there by the government as in a reservation. I really respect them for that. Such a great feeling knowing where my next paycheck will be coming from! Yay again!! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img] |

Thats interesting, obviously I've only got a vague idea of these things but my understanding of why the tribes were allowed to have casinos on reservations was because they were allowed to make certain laws that aren't ratified by the state that the reservation is in (for example, Washington state doesn't allow gambling but there were casino's that you could go to when I was there) but if they bought the land themselves then I would have thought that it would have been part of the state and subject to whatever laws were there. Care to explain.
