Well since the Black Hills are mentioned lets see what your supreme court decided by an 8-1 majority .... The US government was wrong and it must make it right , so they offer a paltry $106 million of tax payers money , that money is still sitting in an account as the tribes don't want the money , they want the land . And they are still campaigning for the US government to obey its own laws (some hope eh ?) .
