Wow, Conductor71; you have raised a huge issue here. I won't say more now because I might blow up. Down at the local level, this is a deadly problem. There is no support available; you get told to sit at the back of the bus, and then you get thrown off the bus. I have lived with native people on Reservations, and I have been in contact with hundreds of PWP, and it is startling to see that both run into a wall of bigotry, unless they can hide who they are.

This is central to the whole PD scandal.
