if it were not for the indian reservations we would not have a prison problem

......one huge problem is prison overcrowding in our jails and prison due to murder, incest and drunkenness on the reservations, exacerbated by the large amount of money the feds throw at the reservations, that in turn enables unemployment, drunkenness and corruption of the tribal leaders. This is a thumbnail view of the problem, complicated by the most inefficient health care system in the nation known as the Indian Health System. Property taxs pay for county jails. And they are filled 70% indian.
then you said....

......but never the less the indigenous crime problem is a leading factor in fiscal costs of the state.
then you backtracked....

......inmate population is fluid, but..., I am not referring to just PRISON population, SD has only one prison, I am giving you county jail numbers, plus prison,& reservation jail: as I said before.
In my county , now , we are at 50% that includes, CAB, receiving & referral, (detox), half way house, and state + bop.
For the last time the emphasis of the debate you are twisting; was the extreme dollar figure going to indigenous in relation to federal entitlements. Just today it was reported that a county hospital in mission SD, has to close it's doors do to non payment by the IHS, to which the Hosp. has to comply by fed law.
then you backtracked even further.....

Did you not read my last post, at one time we hit 70%, now it is 50%, the numbers fluctuate but on the average 40% indian overall is what we have I forgot to add that includes the juvenile population. I will say that I worded my original response incorrectly, to sound as though 70% is a constant.. I also should have pointed out the increased Hispanic population fueled by illegals...............
I've "focused like a laserbeam" onto your posts. But for the sake of accuracy, clarity and truthfullness, or at the very least, a corraborating source that has numbers even romtely close to yours, so that my focused laserbeam gets a viewpoint represented by more than your word for it.
All I'm asking for is a link to back up your claims. It's not like I'm trying to corner you into admitting to being a murderer because you voted for somebody, or even asking you to admit to lying and making up the numbers.
I've provided some links to counter your claim, but you as-of-yet have refused to include any that back up your argument.
