Don't waste my time. The antiquated treaty "rights" are currently being challenged in court by people who understand the importance of whales to the environment, and the Makah need a written sanction from NOAA in order to hunt. They don't have that, so it's ILLEGAL. Get It????
The whales in the waters near the Makah place are of a much smaller, local pod, and can have thier health and well-being seriously disrupted by being hunted.
I suppose you believe humans to be 'superior', and the'poor indians were here 1st, all the b.s. most people are so OVER.
Technically these people came here a few thousand years before other races, but they came from china just like everybody else.
As for 'indigenous peoples'. what do you think they do with all the salmon they're allowed...eat it? Is 21 shots from a high powered rifle TRADITION? Give me a break.
