So then in the case of the Native Americans, would the BLM rules be applied to them?

Ya, but it doesn't matter because we 'patriots' killed most of them and genetically manipulated almost all of what remained of the population. Problem solved.

Ok... So the BLM rules only apply to white people of European descents? Got it

Lots of rules are selectively applied (which is why Jon Corzine romes free on the economic plane) and there remains a demonstrable racial component to enforcement of said. This is why I believe philosophically that although the U.S. is making laudable progress on the problem of racial discrimination, the problem still exists and there is work to be done.

BTW, TYT made a pretty good point the other day. Let's say a bunch of black folk in Compton or Hispanics in East LA showed up with guns and demanded that one of theirs shouldn't have to pay some fee that everyone else pays. Do you suppose that the 'patriots' are going to roll into town guns blazing to support their cause or that Fox News is going to rally to their cause? I don't, which is why I have significant dis-trust in the motivations of these 'oath keeper' loons who take every opportunity to claim that their driving force is purely philosophical. I didn't see an outpouring of 'security help' for the Occupy crowd who were distinctly (if ambiguously) taking a stand against aspects of central government malfeasance, and who were opposed by a coalition of central government and private financial industry paramilitary muscle.
