According to the article. Contract/agreements were violated.

The railroad fucked around and found out. But $400,000,000 seems…. excessive

My bet is that it gets reduced on appeal.

On the other, I also wish tribes would get treated like the sovereign entities they want to behave like.

I had a Colville tribe member bitching about our new gun laws.

I said to him, “you’re a sovereign nation, open up a gun store and range over in Inchelium, only conform with federal law. Make the lowers there and buy everything else from distributers that will ship to WA. What are they gonna do, come on the res and shut you down? You wouldn’t be importing because the item is made here and it would be legal for you to make it.”

Good thinking, he says.

Maybe we’ll have a weird loophole option for buying in WA.

The tribes will not put up with members doing anything that potentially fucks with the gravy train(s)

I’ve wondered why this wasn’t more of a thing. Seems like an easy loophole for any tribe to play into. Especially in WA. Legal machine guns and SBS in theory

My thought as well, but a tribe in NC recently decided to grow and sell MJ against state law.

I didn’t word this well. What I proposed was that the TRIBE do a gun store and range.

If they produced the lowers they would not be importing into the state and only be bound by federal law. Do normal NICS checks for firearms. They do it with fireworks and as stated above, a tribe in NC has chosen to do it with weed.
