A shame this nation will never live down. Here in Rapid City, they are still working on the burial grounds, locating more graves. I am a regular reader of ICT.
A side story;
My wife attended Chilocco Indian School in Oklahoma as a child. She was sent there when she was 9. When she was 10 years old, her and a friend decided to go home (Luepp, AZ, 950 miles away) so they each took a blanket, a candy bar, and started walking. After 2 nights, a good hearted individual saw them and offered them some warm food and a place to stay for the night. Unfortunately, that person notified the local police. The cops came and took them into the local police station. Since it was the weekend, they had to stay there until Monday morning when someone from the school came for them and returned them to the school.
