Kent Connecticut is the scene of a largely unknown struggle for reclamation of native American  tribal lands. The Schaghticoke tribe is fighting to survive, the U.S. government has required native tribes to show the ownership of the land they live on since before colonization, under new guide lines they only have to show continuous existence since 1934. This allows the tribes to own the lands they exist on and even the lands now inhabited by newcomers (first white settlers). The Euro presence in the modern and past world has been noted by the conquest and indenturing of all native people wherever they went. This conquest resulted in the death and elimination of many people  and their traditions. It is a far cry now from then as people we have all come to the realization that in order to survive as a species we need to work together beyond religious, color, ethnic and gender lines. Even “Star Trek” has moved beyond those barriers. Why can’t we?

George Zimmerman is currently a free man, His lawyers now want the State of Florida to pay his legal expenses, this after his wife attempted to hide their assets (she is now being tried for that). If the State of Florida pays his legal expenses then does this mean it is open season on anyone of color, any of the LGBTG community (which includes all colors) or perhaps a person of a different religious persuasion?  We have a murderer who is free due to the lack of personal conviction on behalf of all of the jurors. The Prosecution missed opportunities in some key areas of their case. Was this deliberate or just an omission due to inexperience, lack of funds or something else? It has been pondered about the result if the Zimmerman was Black ( yes there are non whites with name of Zimmerman). This is just the latest in a series of injustices against minorities and will not be the last as the fringe extremists such as “George” or Jorge  as he would be called in Latin America will take heart in doing the same thing in their own communities. These last few years has brought out the best and worst of us all but this situation is almost like giving a tacit OK on assaults on NON whites of all types. If this were monopoly George would have a “get out jail free card” from the stack of cards in the center while the rest of could not pass go, let alone get $200.00
