actually the reservations here are some of the poorest areas in the nation.. worse than most ghettos.

i went out with a native american girl for a while. she said that most of the houses are without bathroom and kitchen fixtures. mostly due to rampant alcoholism. they'll yank out all the sinks and toilets and sell them. that, however, is not how the reservations in arizona were. not bad at all.

It also hurts me that after college you will get a job faster and better than me because you are white. I have no problem with anybody, and I never use racial terms. But it seems like most people on here thinks its alright because it's a comedy routine, and it makes me wonder if that's how most white people think.

SHUT THE FUCK UP! It is EASIER for you to get a professional job than it is for us "whites". Theres a thing called affirmitive action. YOU HAVE TO HIRE "minorities". You wouldnt know this though im guessing.

Like I said, not racist, just hate one way street with ignorant drivers.

i agree with half that. noone has to hire minorities, but the tax break for doing so is nice.

they are bad.

Here the natives wanted to start casinos, but the state didn't want to give up that source of revenue to the natives, so they just legalized video lottery statewide.

they dont HAVE to, but the fact they can be sued if they dont..........they do have to LOL.

my father has to hire a certain amount of people each year. if a certain percentage isnt of each "minority" then they have to rework things. That is the government though...

That's a pretty disturbing video.

He was very angry.. if he said those things in a less angry more kramer tone it would have gone over a lot better.

but that was just uncomfortable..

and the audience laughs when he says ****** they dont get up to leave until it was obvious he lost his mind and made the audience feel uncomfortable.

I really read into what he was saying with his words ignoring the anger and I agree with him..

the stats on the reservations here are unreal. way worse than any ghetto.

"Unemployment on the Reservation hovers around 85% and 97% live below the Federal poverty level. Average annual family income is $3,800 as of 1999[1]. Adolescent ******* is 4 times the National average. Many of the families have no electricity, telephone, running water, or sewer. Many families use wood stoves to heat their homes. The population on Pine Ridge has among the shortest life expectancies of any group in the Western Hemisphere: approximately 47 years for males and in the low 50s for females. The infant mortality rate is five times the United States national average."

i've only heard by word of mouth. i've never heard the stats or been to sd's reservations. i guess it wasn't an exaggeration
