In all of the states I’ve lived, tribal law ONLY applies to tribe members on tribal land. Anyone and anywhere else must follow state law.

I would think it’s one or the other. If you’re a member of the tribe you are bound by tribal law, if not then you are bound by state law.

Most places I've been the Indians have much more liberal rules than whites off reservation, and neither state nor feds will prosecute them even when they don't follow their rules, so they basically have free rein. On the reservation, each reservation is different, and some of the rules are defined in their treaty, the others are written by the Indians of that tribe, and if they allow whites on the reservation they set the rules for them, usually much different than those for the Indians, which are enforced by the Indian tribal police, so enforcement on tribal members varies wildly from reservation to reservation. For example, one fairly local reservation, is open to everybody, but whites have to follow the same rules as in the rest of the state and the tribe owns quite a bit of ground both on and off the reservation, which they do not allow whites to hunt or trap on. While the rules for the Indians are much more liberal, and enforcement by tribal police against tribal members is lax, unless the tribal member has ticked off tribal police or tribal council. Another reservation had written into their treaty that there is NO harvest of furbearing animals on the reservation, this applies to both whites and tribal members. But the tribe doesn't enforce it against tribal members and while technically federal law enforcement could, (and as a treaty violation, would actually be quite a serious offense) they don't want to ruffle any feathers and have an unofficial complete hands off policy.

In my experience, all of the hundred plus "Native Americans" I have met have mostly European genetics and only a handful looked like they had any Native American genetics at all. The only way I knew most were Native Americans is because they told me. I have 2 friends I have had since college, who had curly blonde hair (they're mostly bald now), blue eyes and pale skin like me, who got scholarships for being Native American. I recently read where in the next 50 years, the Alaskan seal harvest will be almost non existent because there may not be even any people who have enough Native American blood to qualify to take part.
It seems stupid to me to let a bunch of white people, with minute amounts of Native American DNA play Injun and have special rights. I don't care about the old treaties. I thinks it's time for us to all just be Americans. There's to much division amongst Americans. You can't fix old wrongs, that happened long before any of us were born, by giving special benefits and privileges now. Doing so just creates more division.

Where I was it depends on the land u were trapping on. Tribal lands have a different set of rules than the state.

Keith Agreed In early years of the European settlers coming to America nearly all of them arrived here with only the few things they could carry . They left their old home behind and where going to a place they had only heard about .They did not have a particular destination in mind . Of course they knew what city their ship was sailing to .And may have had some idea where they where headed once they got here Once they actually settled and established a home they had no choice but to become a part of the local community It was only a few homesteads spread out across the country side Yes the people where very self sufficient but they still needed help from their neighbors It was not a case of people only associating with only those that where of the same nationally .Once they settled in to their new environment they quickly became Americans It was not to their advantage to avoid each other .I will say though that the Native Americans where often the ones that where taken advantage of. They where repeatedly made promises of things that where not lived up to where it turned out those in charge broke those promises .I sometimes wonder though if those in authority in some of those organizations are not doing more harm than good They are promoting ideas that help themselves while neglecting society in general
