Nobody can accuse the Native Americans of overusing the water of the Colorado River! It's a trickle next to everyone else use. It's like asking someone not to drink a glass of water while you're swimming in a Olympic pool.

If that was true they would not have put you under Congress when the United Nations was formed. You are far more colonized than you can ever imagine under this forum. They're the same exact people who have been opposing the Constitution since its Inception. Deception has not changed and they're very curious of what your plans are going to be l, any new ideas you have. You apparently didn't learn anything when they snuffed out Byron Dewey and his family. Or maybe your playing their game, the enemy of my enemy is my friend? Front door back door same entrance?

the u.s. federal government paid the indigenous to not take water from the colorado river – meanwhile – the international boundaries and water commission has been gifting extra water from the colorado river to mexico – been going on since the 80's ..
