I just refuse to approve garbage talk. If you have something genuine to say, then say it and I will approve it. Finally, I always post using the name Ahni. Again… nonsense.

It's inflammatory, obscene, and quite frankly, I don't for a second believe you're O’odham. For the record, BD, I’m not posting your reply to misty.

I happen to be from the Tohono O'odham Reservation, born and raised. I know exactly what Mrs. Rivas is talking about I have also been harrassed many times by the U.S Border Patrol not to mention racially discriminated against. The border was put up and cut right through the Tohono O'odham Nation and now we have part of our tribe living across the border known as the O'odham in Mexico, now we're going to have a fence put up to keep them out? That's ridiculous that has to be a better way. I back Ofelia up all the way. She's also right about the militarization of our lands, on my way down from Phoenix to my home in Pisin mo'o, I can count 30+ Border Patrol vehicles on the drive down. Then while I'm there visiting it feels as though we're in a Prison Camp, we can't go for drives on our own land without getting pulled over and interrogated. Just hanging out in backyard, Border Patrols canvas the area multiple times, slowly driving by while staring and watching your every move. No type of privacy it wasn't this bad when I lived back at home 10+ years ago. I get pulled over on my way back up to Phoenix everytime, Racial Profiling. Now, I find myself not visiting home as often as I used to, for the inconvenience. So Big Dong, you shouldn't comment unless you know what your talking about. Hey Big Dong, you have a fitting name!
