I signed the petition.

I have two questions:

1) how do you pronounce that name? Is it "Ramp-off Luna-apee," "Ramp-owf Loon-ape," "Ramp-pawg Loon-ope" or what
2) how will Federal recognition of your tribe "ensure our [your] childrens' survival?" Are they dying right now?

I am totally not trying to be a smartass. I hope this doesn't come across that way. Just thought that the description there was a bit extreme in its language.

Can we sign it without having our names posted on the sight? That is unclear.

First off I'd really like to thank both of you for showing interest in it. So seriously THANK YOU.

Zoopy zoops: I'm not really good at typing enunciation but I'll try, I say it RAM (as in dodge ram or the ungulate) uh, poh as in long "O". Like "oh". Lenape (thats how I've always spelled it, also know as the delaware injuns) is Len, ep, A. Yea I'm terrible at that.

Yea they've always been kinda doomy, but I'm taking it as by having federal status that insures my peoples land can't be touched. Also natives get federal benefits. My wife and daughter get free healthcare form their seminole tribe (albeit terrible sometimes) and other, um IDK, guilt related stuff. They can build a casino, which is a great source of revenue for the tribe if they don't squander it like my wifes tribe has.

It will help in the ongoing lawsuit again Ford, they dumped toxic waste in our traditional homeland. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is in on that one. It was declared a superfund site.

Mainly it's kinda a principle type thing. For hundreds of years we've been denied recognition because europeans really wanted to eradicate the native peoples. It really was a clear case of racism. Honestly if it wasn't for the delawares the jamestown colony would have never worked. I think just a nod in the direction of, yea, you taught us how and what to eat, would make a lot of us happy.

But if you're somewhat of a purist, there probably isn't any pure ramapo's left. We've been interbreeding with africans and europeans since the 15th century. But really in the scale of things, there are very few pure blood natives period.

Anyway sorry for the rambling.

Dead Cat: yes, there is a box underneath where you put your name that lets you hide it. And honestly I know nothing about that site and I was pretty weary myself putting my address and stuff in it, so I made one up. I'm a paranoid type of guy.

Again thank you very much.

Hey 6-mam, I signed it :)

Hope it helps. I sent that link to a few peeps that are activists  as well so it should get some more signatures thru their end as too.

Out on the island the Shinnecock are the only tribe left I believe. (I'm not sure if peconic was a tribe?) They got screwed land wise, but I believe they won the vote and have the right to build casinos. I'm not sure I have to look it up. I used to know a lot more about the goings on when worked and lived out east, so don't quote me on that.


Assholes call the shinnecocks the "monig" tribe, why? Oh "because they're mo' nigg*r than they are Indian."....

Sigh. Isn't that the worst? I feel bad even repeating it... I've heard that quote come out of the mouths of many "non racists"... And others who like to claim they're part Cherokee or something ! Yeah?! (Such a pet peeve of mine, people claiming to be Native American but you know they aren't)

People think it's funny and don't take the tribe seriously at all. They go out there to buy cigarettes from them and treat them like dirt.   

Makes me insane, and mad. Jesus Christ. Look at what happened to these peoples ancestors.  Look at our ancestors did to them. What the fuck.  Honestly it brings tears to my eyes when I think of the way native Americans were systematically decimated and destroyed. All the knowledge and wisdom that could have been pasted down...just gone. :(

I'm sorry for someone in family possibly being any part of your ancestors and their peoples demise. I know, it's lame but I truly do feel so much heartache over human suffering like theirs.

That would be so cool to learn you're like 1/64 Black! Maybe just to have the, um, the UH, the erm, equipment? Do you look Black?

So tell me,

just what good is having 1/64 of the um, err, the equipment? How'd you ever pull it?

As for me, Half English, Half Beam me up Scotty

You didn't know - 1/64 = all the equipment. You have to understand genetics. Weird I know but that's how it works ( a little bird told me ).
