peter all good points
such ridiculousness makes the navajo look golden by comparison
to just salute the four directions & piss on azconmut
at their daily opening & closing ceremonies
& to thus heap all the ridiculousness right back upon the supposed masters
who of course come flocking there to pay the navajo money for the privelege
of hunkering down on all fours over the dank cement in celebration of just
this geopolitical game
& it also makes the territorial sharemates of the navajo there
the ute
seem even wiser to just ignore the whole place
m
whether or how the study of indian boundary crosses may tie into this
remains to be seen
