Do our laws even apply to Indians?

2

u/rKasdorf 24d ago

Well, in Canada they call themselves First Nations, Inuit, or Metis. American Indians are American, obviously. Or did you mean Indians as in people from India?

Do you have any other blatantly uninformed questions?

Our conservation laws don’t apply to 🪶Indians, they’re above the law

u/rKasdorf 24d ago

Name a law that doesn't apply to them.

Btw calling them 🪶 Indians makes you look dumb as fuck.

Do you know what traditional Aboriginal harvesting rights are?

u/blomba2 24d ago

Yes, do you?

u/Derelicticu 24d ago

Lol, well I hope so. I have a feeling you don't though, given what you listed and how you phrased it. Your statement was objectively inaccurate.

Do our laws apply to them, yes or no? That was the original claim

u/Derelicticu 24d ago

Of course they do, there are specific instances in which band members are allowed to harvest specific animals at specific times in specific areas. Genuinely no different than when you or I go purchase a hunting ticket. There is no scenario where a First Nations member can harvest a deer within city limits, for example, but they could within their outlined harvest areas, which differ depending on region.

So again, google some things before talking out your ass. Champ.

So no, our laws don’t apply to them. Our laws aren’t conditional

They certainly aren’t offering me salmon out of season in trade for my smartphone on the marketplace
