I'm Not Talking about politics today. I only visited Indianz.com for the comics. Oh, that wacky Garfield.
So, in this article:
J.C. Begay extradition hearing moved to CrownpointCROWNPOINT An extradition hearing for Navajo Nation Council Delegate J.C. Begay will be at 10 a.m. Wednesday in the Crownpoint Judicial Court, officials said.
A motion for a change of venue was made by Navajo Nation White Collar Crime prosecutor Ella Rose Wilson in Window Rock, Ariz. The original hearing, scheduled for Wednesday in the Shiprock court, was canceled.
The state of New Mexico has charged J.C. Begay with cattle rustling. The state District Attorney's Office in Farmington has charged him with larceny of livestock and unlawful branding, both felonies.
New Mexico issued a warrant for his arrest Sept. 11. That warrant is still outstanding, however, the state has no jurisdiction on the reservation. State charges were made because those claiming cattle was stolen or rebranded by Begay are nontribal members.
I'm just interested in the words. Like "Nation," and "extradition," and "jurisdiction." They all end in "-ion."
Also a bit surprised that cattle rustling still goes on, but I'm a city boy and a vegetarian, and cannot be expected to know such things.
Re: rustling. Oh yah. Used to know a woman who was a mounted cowhand [aka cowboy] down in Texas- it wasn't a joke.
Re: Boondocks. Apparently the Columbus Dispatch has held rights to B for almost a decade, but refuses to print it- but their hold on the copyright means noone else hereabouts can, either. Bastards.
