Column: Cheyenne-Arapaho Tribes 'extort' casino

printer friendly
"Annemarie Beck isn't worried about losing her home to the Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians. Neither is Gov. Bill Owens. Nor am I.

Beck owns a house in Castle Rock. Owens has a place in Centennial. I'm in Denver. All of us live within the 27 million acres the Cheyenne and Arapaho now say belongs to them because of 19th-century treaty violations, "aboriginal rights" and attempted genocide.

That's pretty high-minded language for people trying to extort a casino out of the residents of Colorado."
