Absolutely right. I know most tribes these days have very strict regulations about adopting outside the tribe,  which is necessary after having their children kidnapped for generations. 

Three years ago or so he seemed really cool. 

And minimal consequences for doing so. 

I believe that a lot of white people would support slavery to this day if it were socially acceptable. They would see it as the natural order of things. No joke 

Well said

The Republicans accidentally appointed some people with integrity. But they still have Thomas and Kavanaugh.
