USURPATION OF THE BLACKFEET INDIAN RESERVATION BY BORDER-WHITES
The future is now! All glaciers in Glacier Park will melt in just 15 years by 2030 and leave just the snow pack for water resources,which combined with global warming points to water shortages across the United States and within Montana. The Blackfeet Indians reserved by treaty with the Congress all grazing lands and pure waters of the Blackfeet Reservation, but the Montana border-whites have robbed our land and waters. The fee lands occupied by whites have been polluted with pesticides and fertilizers, and oil companies have polluted the water table from Seville to the Sweet Grass Hills with chemicals from drill pipes and holding tanks. The Blackfeet Chiefs in every treaty and agreement chose the staff of life of clean water, grazing lands and timber to support the Blackfeet cattle industry, which was recognized as a success in the 1896 Agreement reserving all reservation land and water for the Blackfeet cattle ranchers. The white men were banned from the Blackfeet Reservation. Usurpation is the "unlawful encroachment or assumption of the use of property, power, or authority which belongs to another. An interruption or the disturbing a man in his right and possession; unlawful seizure or assumption of sovereign power; assumption of government or supreme power by force or illegally, in derogation of the constitution and of the rights of the lawful ruler for which writ of prohibition may be granted involves attempted exercise of power not possessed by inferior officer, unjustly intruding upon or exercising any office or liberty belonging to another." The illegal occupation of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation upon stolen Blackfeet land allotments alienated in Glacier County Court by border-white judges, juries, and prosecutors have robbed large portions of the Blackfeet Reservation land base by usurpation of Blackfeet Treaty Rights. The Blackfeet Indians have been massacred, starved, robbed, and subjected to "Slow Death Measures" genocides by the white men living on stolen Blackfeet land allotments and reduced to poverty and prisoners of state jurisdiction without any consent of the Indians or the prior approval of Congress. That is how the white man got on the Blackfeet Reservation. Today, the white men in Glacier County are demanding the remaining waters of the Blackfeet Reservation by the state-tribal water compact which restricts inter-state trade of the Indians with regard to marketing their clean, pure water resources to off-reservation water markets. The Indian landowners have kept their waters clean and pure while the white man has polluted his waters. Is it justice to demand the Indians water and to order the Indians to go under state law to control the price and marketing of Indian water and the use of Indian water? The white man's "reservation" is the State of Montana. Bob Juneau Sr. Blackfeet landowner
