PHOENIX JONES HAS OUR SUPPORT

yes me and my family are PRO PHOENIX! if i had heard of him before i had my foot landed on mid flip by a 76 burbin than maybe id be the vigalanty of the rez! i really do not care for people who say he is an idiot for throwing himself in harms way where police should belong i simply as well where were they? out makin public apology #9999 this last 2-3years??? i lost faith in them when they shot down a well known native american carver for a more than legal length blade of 3inches which he used to make his art with. I believe PJ is a great inspiration that ANYONE can be a hero. and a word for those who say he is getting in the way,at least when he sees a rape or robbery or beating we know he will stop it not yell at the guy to freeze or simply walk away like nothing happened like most citizens and or cops of the puget sound. dude this guy is an MMA fighter and the criminals he has takin down should be lucky he isnt going full on punisher status and just kicking the living shit outta them like he no doubtly can. most of the time the haters of people like this are spoiled over wealth golden spoon-in-mouth children,even the grotesque graying flabby kind that felt the need to attack my comment on the story on seattle post site named bobby something,sir you are but an ignorant fool who has probably never experienced real strife ever thus explaining why you approach a story of a courageous selfless real life hero saving the community one small crime at a time in such an apathetic matter. Sure its the cops job because they get paid for it,well give Phoenix Jones a check for doing it and he is QUALIFIED and all the crybabies can STFU! because thats all a cop is is a costume wearing paid protector but they havent been doing just that,so where do we turn when we cant simply walk to our vehical and have to be worried about some wannabe gangster or junkie robbin you for your shit. i mean COME ON!!! HE IS DOING IT FOR OUR KIDS! dont you want your kids to have supwr hero role models again and not Snookie or any of the 16 and pregnant girls? or even better how about we go to having Tony montana and charles manson as role modles? tony was a good business man and charles had GREAT motivation skills...or were those drug induced mind fucks??o well who cares just as long as some freak in a suit isnt going around with delusions of saving people....uhhhg nimrods....anywho... PJ TULALIP LOVES YOU! even if its all for show now the beginning moral is what gets me!and his badd ass MMA fights :)

DOGS ROCK

i absolutely love animals of all kinds and even though people scoff at puff peices they are nice boosters for the faith in humanity.

IM.DONE

im done with my tribal government. they are nothing but a piggy bank that people keep reaching into like many of the families that are huge and sadly in power. but the people who have been fuckin everything up with drug deals and money stealin, rape,murder, faulty family benefits meant for all used for ONLY them. then they go and hire family and friends who take up the jobs and leave none for those who NEED it. this last weekend has been the straw that broke tha mutha fuckin back, when more people i know and grew up with die so fucked up and so much like i almost did....shit stops being justified and starts seemin like it needs to be destroyed andd rebuilt from scratch! ive so been tempted to pull a IMMORTAL TECH and leave ya to ya own destruction like sparkin a feind!!! the tribal police now are but DECROTIVE INFECTIOUS SWINE WITH TOO MUCH POWER and that goes for SPD too. you beat us,sick yo fuckin dogs on us,kill and literally rape,intimidate,and fabricate! fer starts how about Mr.Jimbo... i thought i thought i disliked you outta teen angst but now i see it was your energy... so long ago i seen i did not like the way you projected yourself like most cops, but as i see it was for a damn reason. not because i was a delinquent but aura seer. i seen the darkness you and every other cop in that department tries to hide behind a fuckin shiny badge. and debbie parker!OMMFG where else should i start besides being a fictitious lazy old bittie with a snotty teeny bopper mentality, you should of fixed your campaign slogan from for the youth to I think AM THE YOUTH! up and leaving during another fellow educators speech at a 2day convention within the first 2hours??? uhhh excuse me but were you not all in the damn Herald braggin how you were out helping ittt bitty kiddies in school because you know education is the way to go? ?? so wouldnt you think the college part of the education process is kinda vital??? i mean thats where we want our children to end up and not 6 feet under,or in and outta either prison or rehab/treatment facilities? ? but no i guess whomever you were going to see or meet must have been waay more important than making sure our bonds with EVCC are not strained in their time of need for money so our members can still attend under our circumstances? but alas she hath made us look like uneducated nothing but talk air heads by ditching in the middle of a speech anf offended half the staff it seems.... thanks debbie YOUR SUCH A FUCKIN LEADER! and mr Les p. uhhhg everyone knowsof your shenanigans beecause you continue to publically make an ass of your self but
with all the housing problems you have creaated i must throw you name in too. because thecrews you hired are sloow and do not know what they aree doin! theydo next to nothing and would have been fined and fired if they acted like that outside of a tribal owned business. with all the nails they seem to like to leave in everyones driveways to the broken peices of roof and other nasty things from them tearing apart ssidings and roofing. and thats just the tip of the les stink bomb! therr is aalso him trying to get a well known rival tribe just north to move a vasino not even a mile away from oura in marysville... really? happens a while aho but REALLLY???? YOU ARE SO SICKLY VENDETTIVE.... just sickly...
i love this place but the way you twisted ass cannibals have changed it and fed the wood tk the feind fire and fucked everonne up and now we have to extend our cemetary to fit moree bodies and all our leaders do is feed into fire...not caring if they destroy our culture and traditions with greed and drugs.... bahaha speakin of drugs ive all but forgot about Mista m. Fryberg JUINAH!! biggest hippocrite of them all. you are a true tricksterr in disguise! you slither like stanky snake through our community hissing lies yet spreading the venom your protesting... simply to everyone simply here for the money GTFO!!!!!! IF WE WANTED TO DEAL WITH THAT SHIT WE WOULDA STAYED IN MAINSTREAM POLITOCS WITH WHITEY!!!

goodnight and goodlife...

legalize the penalized

mmmhhmmmm i done went there. why does pot have to be the "gateway" drug? simply because admitting it isnt the core of the problem would admit to ripping off the earth and our pockets in the end because the industrial and medicial uses of cananis and hemp would stomp trees,cotton and tobacco/alcohol heffes and they aint havin that. many try the "REEFR MADNESSS approach and say you will go crazy or become a burnt out loser from simply eating or smoking the substance and all forms of this god given plant should be demonized. I CALL B.S! despite the "professional" **COUGH'paidoffimbeciles'COUGH** seemingly legit comments on marijuanas medical beneifts being non-existant do not believe the hype, canabis has been used as a natuaral anesthetic by numerouse cultures in all countries at some point in time before your modern day painkillers or anesthesia docs use now. even in childbirth!( so screw you maggots who say pot babies like us are less mentaly/physically developed!) do not get me started on the INFINITE uses of HEMP that would save our trees,our animals,and natuaral resources. hell i bet our alcohol and probably hard drug related catastrophes would drop near 0. drug gangs would have their big profit terminated the moment the outlawing of marijuana/hemp is.

simply if you are con pot then think of this if your tired of your local heroin/crack-cocaine/meth dealer acting like fuckin tony montana hustlin nickel n dime bags of trash to your children,siblings,parents,family or friends period,think of it,becoming pro pot will help legalizing it and legalizing it will take the money from the drug lords and stop your neighborhood from depleting,it would put some cash back into our stumbling economy by introducing a stellar product into it and taxing it( creator please dont forgive my materialistic view but the epiphanies will follow soon after;]!) as we sell the weaker potency in almost substitute cigarette form in smoke shops and danky dank potency in the pharms,we can come out of debt as a country! oh and fellow Smokey Mcpuffins kno wat i mean by epiphany,i need not explain.

i stand out in a white crowd yet no one.knows us?

if u grew up on or around a reservation,you could tell the difference between a mexican and native american. but as i explore the foreign world we call america i see my people who lived here long before viking, Spaniard, or europeon kind even knew of the land WE called home.

sure mexican is simply a southern natives who were like us and had our language whipped outta our homes and children. but past is past and now we have what 2pages maybe 2 1/2 pages of history books simply stating we discovered america and indians who we civilized and blended them into our loving society today. and a few basic photos of whay we looked like then,the tee pees or plankhouses we lived in and our totem poles. then you have Hollywood and the variouse movies depicting the history book fairytail. some not so much today thank god! and on a side note thank you mother for sheltering me from old westerns like christians from "sin".


i mean really "injuns" didnt recieve citizenship til 1937ish?? hmmm yet they were granted to own slaves of all kind? its amazing how little this bothered many native americans! how can you be stabbed in the back wen greeting travelers,overtaken,quarantined, then not so much as a real recongnition til 80 sumthin years ago the its slow bribes to keep quite... sorry but my voice is done being muffled my strings are null n void! we want a holiday recognizing our culture,our people, and we need to get back to our roots! look at where starving our spirits has gotten is! we have orphans from OD's, siblings buried cuz of greed and hatred, children pregnant, dirty politicians/cops turning a blindeye on certain crimes that would normally be front page on all met news first or maybe even breaking news on your local news. i hope to fucking he all mighty fuckin creator that a good tribal sumaritan sends this out to all of our tribes and other dirty,falling tribes.
KNOCK THIS MONEY GRUBBIN,DECIETFUL ASS LYIN CRAP OUT!WHAT WOULD YOUR ELDERS WHO RAN THIS SHIT LONG BEFORE YOU SAY? FUCK IT THEY ARE WEEPING ALL AROUND AND MOURNING THAT OUR PEOPLE HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO BEASTS KILLING OVER CRUMBLES OUTTA OPPRESSORS HANDS!! can you guys not hear the cries of pain from letting their gifts to us decompose like the rotting bodies,the stench of double croasing and covered lies clouds our people.....

you follow false leaders and i refuse to do the same. i am my own damn leader and will not bow to any man or woman on demand like a damn jester. i will only represent what i believe and listen to yours but i will not conform to anyones likings... i will not work for a tribe that hashas no interest in our future as a who like we were raised.... I LOVE YOU Tsapa BUT YOU ARE SURROUNDING YOURSELF WITH LIARS,CHEATS,THIEVES,RAPISTS! DO NOT BUY THEIR GIMMICKS AND MASKS!

my theme song of today *Immortal Technique-freedom of speech*!!!! JAMMIN OUT BITCHES!

how a raven is indeed like a writing desk

the raven and the writing desk.

many overpass any simalarities between the two.

only tunnel veiwing mass differences.

who are you to say raven cannot be a writing desk?

he can stand in one place and become the starting point of great stories or business.

he can shine like a freshly finished desk.

simply how these two are alike is anything can be anything.

anyone can anyone.

and we all have simalarities we just refuse to admit.

like minded people.please type with me

walk along with me

flickering tounge spitting sugar coated lies unknowingly worsening their post demise. prancing around in an amusing disguise. manipulating emotions you never really had. smiling and dancing your evil into homes of the gullible. flipping the statue on right and wrong. demonizing anything countering your fantasies. screaming your deceitfulness over the voice of truth.. but your fooling noone but yourself wen you do this and thas al i gotta say. I've got alotta loves but Miss Karma is #1. she's the top bitch you go to wen you want shit done. eventually she'll get you even if you run. her grip is painful,kisses deadly&voices of tjose your hurt by the lies that you spun. she discrimates no color and favors nobody wen their chips have run out. karma is the HBIC,and makes the world go 'round. slow n well deserved misery is whay you have accumulated. doing noone good and only thinkin of yourself. i hold no grudge against you its not my place to label or bring out a verdict. heed the warnings,keep the teachings,dont give up your beliefs to accommodate someone else. hold your ground and make it known we all have say. and always be prepared for that long awaited day...

yay for happy sunrays=D

everyone knows washington is famous for grey skys and rain80% of the year( well western washington). but right now is the beginning of that 20% of beautiful sunny days that bring people in. locals are visually happier and more active because our brains are finally getting natuaral shots of serotonin and what not needed for mental health.these days are why i find it hard to leave a region like this. i feel so at home with all the evergreens and perfect humidity. one sadly ironic trait life decided to "bless" me with is bi-polar allergies in a place rich in pollen spewing plants and alluring maze of woods that i still find a blast to explore and run through. some days i can push thru a day with no medication and roll around tall wild grass with minimal itching. others i need 3 boxes of tissues and all assortments of allergy medications varying from capsules to nose sprays. thankfully its a good day today. other than lifes normal obstacles its been a day to savor because minimal stress and little to np outside drama. a good day to look over ideas and decisions and prepare. an idea I've been feeling a pull towards politics and suit-oriented jobs but it just feels like too much wasted time for wasted money. even though it gives me a small feeling of satisfaction when my opinion or idea is embraced and accepted and then the following events are more on the postive side and it helps a big percentage of people and changes life. but i feel the same if not more when i write poems and people connect and enjoy my silent lyrical emotions and view points. my idea of the day is old and overused but still inspiring,slow down and enjoy the small details. walk a little slower, let every tastebud enjoy your food and cherish the beauties of our mother earth even if they are minimum in your surrounding area,CHERISH AND RESPECT the little you have left my brothers and sisters. open your arms and eyes and life will do the same.

wen it all comes to a head, do not to turn.our way with a belated apology.take.your demise.and.deal.with it!

i am a proud member of the FIRST NATION. i admire the life we lived before settlers came along. i love the physical and mental traits that come with being "Native American". i am fasinated wen i am told of how we we're politicians before white america introduced their version of it. but the frst years ive experienced how our tribe handles things have ripped something I've come to understand as our family tradition to rescue our sinking struggling tribe and then getting NO appreciation for it. now we have tribe hoppers coming outta the woods to enroll to get a check for free. amd more disturbing we have babies havin babies to have an income for the years to come. the parents of party kids and street kids cry injustice for the BOD not coming up with a miracle cure for drug addiction. oversized families struggling with keepin food on the table because they would rather have quick cash instead of settling for wat they had. screams of unaccounted for cash is completely invalid,people wish the tribe be treated bg family not a corporation? well think of our money flow as a household budget! we have employees to pay,multiple bills including payback for the loans that provided us with a revenue,+interest! then you have multiple little bills and lawsuits were others are trying to get a slice of money pie as well. wat is left is wat we have to pay out per capitas. i pray anybody who has leeway with these minions of power smashes it into these peoples heads that when ypu ask for an up in one payment that crosses a certain amount line,you lose benefits LEGITIMATELY.especially wen you have over 5 children plus usually grandbabies who they are collecting for! sure bills get big and food is unbelievable,but my mother had no quarterly check. she raised 4 kids not including "adopted" children with little to NO help from the tribe,state,BEFORE PER CAPS! she found ways to make ends meet wen they shouldnt have. sure my grandparents had a part but thats all. finacially and mentally my mother is a WARRIOR and it sickens me that she and my grandfather are so unappreciated and the most mud slung is in their way! did it not make it clear that wen they both came along and joined the tribal employment list that profits boomed!! my grandpa made our current revenues possible! and my mom,she became part of formerly known as TANF now 477 and had the biggest stats of people who only spent weeks or months on the wat i call "rez welfare" shortly got jobs and stopped all benefits because the classes and seminars my mother put them thru had an actual impact on them in a way never acheived before. there was so little people by a year and a half or more she SAVED the tribe enough money to build a whole new grant we couldve used in education or police forces or that half way home and rehab center we desperatly need. but the moment our "people" caught wind we had money with no cause yet they demand bigger checks! it has become so bad i sont think there will be a tribe for my children to register and represent wen they come to this world. my fight in my soul knows this battle is lost against stupidity in numbers and its a death wish to jump in now,because the stress from just the beginninig that took a huge toll on my family is deadly they are having the life sucked out by this place i call home. the people i call extended family are now only sheeple i cannot look at without wanting to grab them,and shove the truth they ignore down their huge ill-opionated mouths! politics is a burden my family bears because we are the only ones who posses the skills to understand them and the ability to pull a company/tirbe outta the fire..and if the people refuse the proper help they require then let them burn in their beds!

woe to the ignoranus',tis not their fault.

everyday i find it harder and harder to bite my tongue and not try to express too much of my own brash usually offensives opinion. even though half the time I'm not trying to offend anyone its just the very aloof way i go about explaining how the world connects differently than most people think and every once in a while I'm corrected,which is normal in life,mistakes are only good when you know you fucked up(earlier rather than later) and REALIZE you need to mend it over somehow. but lately i have been reading stories online and the discussions going on in the comments usually below.I've felt the strongest urge to state a strong usually controversial comment to take a look into the many other opinions from the many different lives wasting time online like myself. then i remember why i permanently logged out of the popular social networking monsters..because most of the feedback i do get is an attempt at insults and critisism as only 2012 American trash can offer. the most frikken irritating thing about their "opinions" is that's all they are and they present them as solid evidence when 99.99% of the time it's completely INVALID and IRRELEVANT! when i wake up in the morning i pray to some higher power in the sky that social darwinism wipes out the majority of every villages idiots we have allowed to mate together and create more ignoramuses twice as unbelievably stupid and also more of a drive to wanna spread their stupidity like a nasty flu. even though this will include some dear to me,it needs to happen. i mean shit if half of this countries brainless loud mouthed douchebags would STFU and realize their is life outside of their bubble of denial...and step down from power for people who have common sense,faith for human kind CAN be restored and maybe other countries would stop hating us and shit can be straightened out finally! also ship off all annoying bigots who cant comprehend yes there was life here in America before it was America and that it WAS wrong what settlers did to us and all we want is the recognition you seems to give to every other race than the one the gov. truely FUCKED. sure give us gambling and liqour sale rights and keep us looking like idiotic savages until we get smart and make that business boom,then BAM we're back to evil savages who force alcohol and gambling in your face and into your family. sorry kony 2012 group but the true invisible people are MY people. we begin to succeed and low and behold success brings money and money brings human vultures who take form of "white Indians" who only arrive when revenues do,or the heroin dealers who keep track of per capitas and of who is the easiest to tune in to that drug level and keep there... but alas lately...I've found it very difficult to push myself to save.the.slowly sinking ship i call my tribe. more and more money grubbing,unqualified,uneducated,..things keep getting voted into power by their gullible and painfully ignorant families. they slap on a deceitful mask and dance a hypnotic tune and houdini their way to the top,stomping on every person posing a threat to their vendettas. as i claw my way into the true circle business for the big boys and girls,i see it more of a tight huddle and everyone else is trying to concoct methods to rip the power from underneath them like a throw rug on linoleum. if i try to save us from going under and actually by succeed...please remind me real heroes don't get thanks or appreciation. LIKE THANKSGIVING! SAVE THE PILGRUMS,THEY INFLICT THE FIRST BIOLOGICAL WARFARE!

if u are any other race other than white.dont wear a hoodie.

apperantly according to geraldo Rivera, trayvon Martin would NOT have been shot if he just hadn't worn a hoodie fareal dough????? so a child of Color,any color,probably shouldn't wear a hoodie because they will be mistaken as "thugs"... being native American with 2 younger siblings and countless cousins,who wear hoodies and basketball shorts damn near daily,and have they have dark brownish red skin, do i need to worry wen they leave our reservation to the neighboring town to hang out or what not,in their normal attire, of being shot to death by overweight trigger happy white man? me and my significant other(who is white) discussed this because what kind of message will it send to our future mixed children? who will more than likely have the overdominating "James gene" as my family calls with of course his variouse traits also. which means dark skin thick black/dark brown hair and the famouse high-n-dramatic cheekbones. i have experienced how messed up and racist people can still be. ive been taunted and been kicked outta schools and functions because of the race i am threw the justice scale off. I'll admit i fell into the stereotype minority child thing because as a teenager i thought" if they want a violent savage,they will get one with a vengeance!" but quickly realized shit needed to change. this whole incident with Trayvon M. and George Z. is completely cockeyed. shouldn't expect any less idioticly ignorant from officials from Florida," stand your ground law.... comeon dudes, stay off thedrugs and outta the sun long enough to get your brain back to functioning for a few moments Florida! George z obviously shouldn't have been armed,he looks like he could barely keep himself in check why was he given a gun to be an unofficial neighborhood watchman of a GATED community? I'm sorry but don't communities like this have REAL security for a gated off place like this? but back to the hoodies,how does an artical of clothing especially one so common become a reason to chase them down,start an altercation where a teenager a quarter of your size where he ends up dead with only some candy and a can of tea in his possession? what baffels me more is that even though i would expect this from either a downtown bustling area or from small town where there are the old kinda racisism around like the town i live by, it happened in a place that was built to repel these things. now when i heard it was within a gated neighborhood it mustve been an old man with his shotgun who was slowly getting senile by the moment who simply forgot that being colored inna white community isn't a crime anymore. but no it was a fat 30 something who simply has so e sort of grudge against young black males in hoodies. how am i to react to that? other than telling the young men and boys i know to not wander into the rich white end of town wearing a hoodie or they will mistake you as a menacing gangsta and blow your guts out and watch you choke to death on your own blood and innards on the sidewalk. i say if they are going to keep their ignorant stereotypes we should make this guy the creator of his own for that setting i will call it the Zimmerman,a white person of wealth who was granted the right to bear arms and roam the streets of his community with guns and a vendetta against anyone darker than him inna hoodie.

×D

my iced over vent.

"Wat's your problem??"....there is a time to ask and a time not to. today is the NOT day. its one of those days that if u makethe dumb ass decision to ask this the wrong way,I'll probably tell you exactly my problem plus yours and hers and your mama's and daddy's problem! this rez,AND, this country is run by OVERBLOATED,OVERPAYED,UNDEREDUCATED PIECES OF FECES CRAWLING WITH worms and maggots feeding off them. and all their minions and henchmen have to be reanimated corpses or sumthing to be that brainly-challenged to be a follower of that status. i will not apologize if I've offended you,your family,your friends,or your beliefs. the reason why is because that's MY opinion. and i should be offended that your even questioning it because you could simply walk away and continue life dusting it off as another view for another life. but enough of that. ill keep it short today. just needed to get that out.
