Does the 13th amendment apply not Indians? Yes or no there is no in-between.Either they are Soverns onto the world(Universal)or they are slaves to the Feredal government.

Answer 1

On the reservations casinos are governed by the Tribes.They have their own sovereign nations, just as it should be. There are millions of tribal members through out the USA. Reservations have their own laws.

Answer 2

technically since indian casinos are ran on reservations they do have certain rights that cannot be infringed upon. On a reservation Native Americans can do pretty much as they please, but off the reservation they must adhere to all American laws. If they want one off the reservation they must follow any laws that govern casino or gambling operations for that area.
Casinos are legal in some parts of US, but special permits are required.

Answer 3

Well, the simple answer to your question is, YES, Indian nations are governed by two systems of government.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribal_Law

The Indian Nations are governed both by Federal Law of the United States (native lands are considered held in trust by the Federal Government), but are also sovereign nations unto themselves. The exact boundaries of their power is defined by treties and statute, as well as court decisions.
