(TIC) Certainly it was a prophetic label since the land now is under a dark cloud. Opinions pass for policies and are wished into law. The natives are quite content as long as Mohican Sun pours millions of gambling revenue into gov't coffers. It's not about law and justice and the Constitution it's about gambling, I mean gaming. Could Chief Obama be the last of the Mohicans? What a coincidence Sean Reynolds, the Mohican name for the United States is the land of the long black cloud.

It’s not about law and justice and the Constitution it’s about gambling, I mean gaming. Could Chief Obama be the last of the Mohicans?

For you Americans, the Constitution is no longer to be read in terms of what the Founding Fathers of your country were thinking when they penned it (or even in terms of what voters in each state were thinking when they voted on the subsequent amendments), but according to the feminist-racialistic-sociologist thoughts of the current times. Likewise in New Zealand, what are known as "Treaty Principles" are to be incorporated into legislation there. For those of you unfamiliar with New Zealand history, this refers to the Treaty of Waitangi which was an agreement between various Maori tribes and the Queen of England which was supposed to guarantee protection of Maori land-ownership while extending British sovereignty over Aotearoa (The Land of the Long White Cloud - the Maori name for New Zealand). The problem is that while the New Zealand Government has placed reference of "Treaty Principles" into the laws, the Government has refused to define what these principles are, leaving that for the courts. This allows the judiciary to re-write history and follow the currents of the time, rather than necessarily go by what Captain Hobson and the Maori chiefs were thinking at the time. This is called Postmodernism in action. Part of the issue at the core of this matter is that we now live in a world in which nothing can mean anything.
