If all you can do is be rude, keep the 2 cents. You need it more than we do.

Im a whitey and I have always felt welcome on the res. I have even been invited to ceremonies while fishing. Its all in how you act with people.

It's not overfishng. It's called harvesting a sustainable resource. Something most Americans have no idea about. Ignorant ramblers like you spew your filth towards the Hoopa Indians all over these message boards but you would never dare open your mouth and say these same things in person. Uneducated people like yourself are just a waste of space. Before you bash the gillnetters realize that you yourself are squatting on Indian land. Don't bash another man's culture just because you're so disconnected from reality that you have no idea about your own. Stay true

So you insinuate violence,you big,uneducated,ugly,alcoholic, neandrathal...you ain't squat.

Come on, i didnt accuse the tribes of not being smart enough to adapt. I am questioning the "traditional" ways and privledges tribes are awarded. In my opinion there are too many entitlements given to native americans and those entitlements are abused. I dont think native americans as a whole are dumb or naive at all and know they could survive comfortably without entitlements. I think entitlements hurt the tribes by making them reliant and complacent. Its not like native americans are not accepted off the rez. They are people just like the rest of us who have talents and live lives like the rest of us. I know for a fact that i am not accepted on the rez and have been chased off more than once just because im whitey. So if you want acceptance take the chip off your shoulder. Im tired of the double standard.

You might as well of accused him of being dumb,if the shoe fits.

I am indeed, you biggot.

Go back to grade school donkey. I need to go clean my net. Got 132 fish last night. Going to do the same tonight. Have fun watching football, scratching your backside, and wishing you were Indian.

Pathetic lil wannabe.

I would definitely say these things to your face. You're wrong about that one lil' internet troll

I'm sure you still cut down trees with an ax instead of a chainsaw? You probably ride a bike to work instead of taking your truck? Oh yea, and I bet you heat your water in a kettle over an open fire instead of using a hot-water heater?
Get real Spanky. Just because it's a traditional practice doesn't mean that it needs to be down in primitive ways.
Yuroks are plenty wise enough to realize the ways that enable us to simplify our life and make our daily routines a little bit more enjoyable. If something can be done in a better or a more efficient way, most Yuroks will jump at that chance and learn and adapt to make things easier on themselves and the people that surround them.

Could you please tell us when Indians invented and started using monofilament line gill-nets and when said practice became part of their heritage?

I mean kinda like mexicans saying hydraulics are part of their heritage. You ever see a burro with hydraulics?

Please tell us all just when Indians invented monofilament line! And before you comment, at least TRY to understand what you read.

If, and I reiterate, if Indians wove natural fibers to make nets, then that’s “heritage”. Butt using modern day factory made chemical fibers is not.

Like I said, try to understand what you’re commenting about before you respond.

Indians are smarter than you Opie. They adapt. It would be dumb to use an ax to fall a tree when you could save an enormous amount of time by using a chainsaw. Tradition can be held up with adaptation. Quit your sniveling and get back to foul hooking your fish while you are snagging them from shore.
