Native American Tribes Defend Traditional Marriage

Months before the U.S. Supreme Court rules on the issue of gay marriage, Native American tribes have taken steps to defend traditional marriage.

Eleven tribes with a total membership approaching a million people will not recognize same-sex marriages.

Just weeks after North Carolina began issuing marriage licenses to gay couples, the state's Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians updated its law to prevent gay couples from having marriage ceremonies on tribal land.

Tribes that don't recognize same-sex marriage include the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma and the Navajo Nation

Minorities are allowed to deviate from leftist oppression. Conservatives are not allowed.

I head this on WGAF morning news. The Native Americans behave like their nations are sovereign in their decisions. Next thing you know they'll start building casinos in states where gambling is prohibited. Seriously, who do they think they are?
