Crab Dad posted:Wasn’t that codified in treaties? Did we just really poo poo on all tribal treaties? No, they just poo poo on centuries of well established federal law. The tribes never had jurisdiction over non-Indians on Indian land. It was always the federal government that had jurisdiction over non-Indians that committed crimes against Indians on Indian land. As a practical matter, that has meant that Indians who are crime victims of non-Indians were hosed unless it's a rape, child sex abuse, murder or particularly violent assaults because the Feds won't prosecute otherwise. The Feds don't have the manpower, willpower or inclination to reach that deeply into the non-sexy crimes that make up 90% of the crimes that are actually committed against regular people, Indian and non-Indian. Rewriting the law was either the Tribes and the Federal executive's decision to make, or the Federal legislature's decision to make. It was not within the SupCt's power or authority to rewrite the law.

LtCol J. Krusinski posted:They can’t actually do that. In order to recieve Dishonorable Discharge you have to be convicted and sentenced in a general court martial. You can’t get one under a special court martial. Unfortunately in order to be court martial you must first violate the UCMJ.. which you have to have been subject to, which he appears not to have been. Yep, not subject to the UCMJ on 1/6, but probably UA/AWOL now, so maybe an OTH AdSep?
