To my understanding living right outside of this one here in Oregon, the reservations is there own country. They are governed by the federal government. I was told to be careful going to the res. with my meds on me. Our cards do not hold water over there.
Our police can not cross the res. line, nor can alcohol be sold there. This has been what I was told and/or my understanding.

I do have this show scheduled to come on.....Thanks for the post!
