The president of Oglala Sioux Tribe in South Dakota on Tuesday called for the immediate release of tribal members who were detained at a homeless encampment by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Minnesota last week.
Three of the four Oglala Sioux Tribe members who were arrested in Minneapolis on Friday have been transferred to an ICE facility at Fort Snelling, President Frank Star Comes Out said in a statement released with a memorandum sent to federal immigration authorities.
“The Oglala Sioux Tribe’s memorandum makes clear that ‘tribal citizens are not aliens’ and are ‘categorically outside immigration jurisdiction,’” Star Comes Out said. “Enrolled tribal members are citizens of the United States by statute and citizens of the Oglala Sioux Nation by treaty.”
INDISCRIMINATELY AND WHOLESALE DESTRUCTION OF ICE AND ALL ITS AGENTS
It was only a matter of time before those fascist fucks did this. They’re looking for anyone who doesn’t look white, and they don’t care beyond that.
Video of ICE harassing native Americans started surfacing almost immediately as the ICE raids started. Hire racist white fucks; get racist white fuckery.
You say that as though this wasn’t the plan all along
They’ve been doing this since almost the beginning, but YES, they do not care.
This IS the plan. Stir up chaos, and distraction, while destroying the US. Actual traitors in our midst, and they are also traitors to the entire human race.
That’s RICH! A motherfucking invader by ancestral association arrests a NATIVE for being “illegal alien.” These fascist assholes have absolutely no moral compass and not a god damn clue. I can’t wait until their fucking tribunal on an international stage!
I mean, the fact that they landed here with a boat 500 years ago doesn’t mean they own the place
Why would I assume this was the Onion? People have been confusing Native Americans for other nationalities for years, not to mention that ICE has been indiscriminately grabbing minorities for months.
Kinda anxiously waiting for ICE to set foot on a native American reservation…
Something tells me they will not hesitate to defend themselves.
They are under the same laws doing some research on this. But Native Americas should be able to defend their sovereignty. I mean they are the OGs and they should be treated as such.
All the reason to keep talking about the epstien files.
Oh the irony! “Illegal immigrants”
This crosses one more line.
