Part of Oklahoma (kind of) secedes from the United States
The Supreme Court ruled today that a big chunk of Oklahoma is actually a Native American reservation, including most of Tulsa. Apparently this impacts what laws apply, so state law may not exist in Tulsa any more.
Link below. Apparently the Muscogee Indians argued that their reservation was never officially taken away when Oklahoma became a state. The government believed that statehood rendered the reservation moot, but the Supreme Court disagrees. So as of today we now have an enormous reservation that apparently controls Tulsa, and I bet they buy Dan Snyder's team once they kill off all of the illegal settlers and take their stuff. I wonder about the other Indian lands now. It seems like other Indian tribes can make the same argument. https://theturtleislandnews.com/inde...l-reservation/ Last edited by Rain Man; 07-09-2020 at 01:16 PM.. |

Good luck with that.
I'll cite the case of Finders vs Keepers. |

Yeah! If we did that they would probably try to build statues and monuments to their war heroes, try and rewrite history to bury the real reason and whitewash it as some glorious "Lost Cause" and work in social economic systems to try and maintain their status quo. Can't have that.
