<< Interesting post...I have had several people here on the list let me know that it is illegal to have certain feathers in my possession, thank you for your concern. I have not heard anyone deal with the fact that it is very "illegal to shoot an Eagle". I will take my chances and use and honor the birds feathers in the way I have been taught. I would not take the same chance on killing the bird. >> Its also very illegal for a government to steal you land (or at least your use of it) without compensation, yet they will do it if a eagle nests on it. BTW, if you are truly an American Indian (and I refuse to say native american, as I refuse to say African American(ask me why)), you may actually be the only one who DOES have the legal right to own such feathers. The legal (ceremonial use) remnants of a few bones the White race tossed the Indian after we took everything else from you but the casinos. And why is everyone so surprised I hate the Republicans? If you saw what they have done to Nassau County over the decades, you'd hate them and vote agin' them too! Merek
