Thats true Jurassic,I remember history class,learning about one of the battles in the war of 1812,about 10 Upper Canada militia,got about 30 Indians to cross a field,between some heavy bush,told them to circle back thru the bush and keep doing it for about an hour.
The Americans thought there were about 600 Indians and they turned tail and ran back across the border,lol.

In all seriousness guys that's a rough place and there's a serious issue with people going missing, especially young girls. It's an epidemic. I could tell you stories that get passed around that will make your skin crawl. I know some of them to be true. Many others are I'm sure. It's really sad that people live like so many of them do in this day and age. They take things into their own hands a lot and I don't mean law enforcement.

Canada doesn't even spend the 2% of their minuscule, compared to the US, GDP, for their own and their NATO allies defense like they swore to do.

Boco, don't be silly. We would never go to war with the USA.


There is no way we could feed or house that many prisoners.

We don’t have the enemies that you guys have. That’s why. And every time USA goes to war they make sure we are right beside them. Why?

Anyways, I think instead of taking the family to Grand Forks for a weekend getaway we’ll head to this Res and do some sight seeing. Any hotels on the Res you guys recommend?

To have enemies you have to stand for something. Not behind someone.

LOL,I think Jurassic has relatives on that American rez.
I been to lots of so called "dangerous" Rez-never had any problems,sold a bunch of fur though.They call me the fur trader when I show up and the word spreads fast.I know all the medicine men on the rez's.
I also bring beavermeat to the elders and trade tanned fur for beadwork and smoke tanned hides sometimes.
Real nice when attending feasts,everyone is so down to earth and happy.
When the people don't know you they are always suspicious of your intentions.Once you get to know the people its a different story.

No hotels but you can stay in the compound.
That is a large area surrounded by fence with razor wire on top. Any non tribal contractors or workers staying on the Rez must camp inside.
I think you'd like it there, enjoy.

It's a lot of fun attending sporting events there. Only place I ever played at where kids flipped off the bus and threw stuff at it.

I've always said I wish I was an enrolled member of the RL tribe. I'd build a house on the far southwest side. I'd send my kids to school in Clearbrook, TRF or RLCC. Put up a food plot and hunt deer for 3 months. When trapping season rolls around it'd be epic.

And this is the band that was responsable for that attack, That is one reason they have not settled their sovereignty with any government.

Jurassic they own the Casino in Thief River and there is a waterslide for your tribe to use it , their rates are 29$ a night.
Just don't borrow any of their special Reservation licence plates and their vechicles

A 7-800 pound black bear is super rare in northern Minnesota. I’m sure the trophy aspect will come into play. Being from Minnesota I can attest to the kids flipping you off when driving through the rez,a learned behavior I’m sure. Drugs and alcohol are rampant and they are currently facing a opioid and heroin epidemic. A few years ago I read where a 12 or 13 year old boy shot and killed another boy over a ps4 game in red lake.
