If you think this is ht first time that "things got political" on the water, around the water and on boat landings, you'd be WAAAY wrong.<br />There were terrible and re0curring conflicts between tribes wanting to exercise their treaty rights and white fishermen lead by a "john Wayne" right wing a-hole type named Dean Crist<br /> It got nasty. Those guys had shirts that said "Save A Fish, Spear An Indian" and stuff like that. They were not nice people and threatening to take it into their own hands etc.<br />Pretty sure the Governor never got on a boat at the times but he was way aware and had to "take sides" etc.<br />And that would have involved a lot more people than "3 boats with a dozen people"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
