Huh?renegotiate the compacts on the gambling. Don't the tribes ever learn? Can't trust the white man.
Yep, pale face bad.Wut meme
apparently the compacts expire 12/31/19, at least Stitt's says so but the tribes disagree. Stitt want to renegotiate the compacts and get the state more money...more than the 4% to 10% currently. Stitt says 20% should be the new number. Tribe says the compacts don't expire at the end of the year. So, what we have is someone eyeing a lot of money on the table and going to try to grab it.
Yep, pale face bad.
Nevermind he invented 90% of the crap you use daily, but still, pale face bad.
Being facetious and sarcastic.
the truth is always in degrees....here is a dok article from today....Hope they tell him to F. O.
How could there not be a clear expiration date?
Actually, you're incorrect. It's a thing. The Inter-Tribal Council of the Five Civilized Tribes took place in Tulsa yesterday and today. The release is what it came from. You're correct that the use of the word "civilized" is odd. But, it is a thing. Kind of like how Trump is referred to as a Christian.Right off the bat I think the phrase five civilized tribes went out of regular lexicon 20 years ago. That is funny.
I think, technically, they don't have to give the state any cut as the operations are taking place on tribal land.Not sure how the Tulsa World can’t report when the agreements actually expire. Seems like that she be easily investigated.
4% to 10% seems extremely cheap for an exclusive right to gaming.

I agree with all of that. Both paragraphs.Like the naacp but you can’t say colored people? I just hadn’t heard it in a long Time.
Luckily the university of Tulsa has a department dedicated to tribal law. I bet they can’t wait to wade into this. Tribes should throw in an extra percent and call it good. They have money running out of their ears.
They just need to build a couple state owned casinos like Kansas did.I think, technically, they don't have to give the state any cut as the operations are taking place on tribal land.
Wrong.I think, technically, they don't have to give the state any cut as the operations are taking place on tribal land.
they'd never miss it. They'll probably put up a fight but cave a little just to get it done and behind them. They may not want to look greedy...maybe.Like the naacp but you can’t say colored people? I just hadn’t heard it in a long Time.

So Stitt is correct about negotiation time and the tribes are incorrect?I looked up the actual compact from the bureau of indian affairs. https://www.bia.gov/sites/bia.gov/files/assets/as-ia/oig/oig/pdf/idc-038412.pdf
B. This Compact shall have a term which will expire on January 1, 2020, and at that time, if organization licensees or others are authorized to conduct electronic gaming in any form other than pari-mutuel wagering on live horse racing pursuant to any governmental action of the state or court order following the effective date of this Compact, the Compact shall automatically renew for successive additional fifteen-year terms; provided that, within one hundred eighty (1 80) days of the expiration of this Compact or any renewal thereof, either the tribe or the state, acting through its Governor, may request to renegotiate the terms of subsections A and E of Part 11 of 46 this Compact. C. This Compact shall remain in full force and effect until the sooner of expiration of the term or until the Compact is terminated by mutual consent of the parties. D. This Compact may be terminated by state upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the tribe in the event of either (1) a material breach by the tribe of the terms of a tobacco Compact with the state as evidenced by a final determination of material breach from the dispute resolution forum agreed upon therein, including exhaustion of all available appellate remedies therefrom, or (2) the tribe's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 346 et seq. of Title 68 of the Oklahoma Statutes, provided that the tribe may cure either default within the thirty-day notice period, or within such additional period as may be reasonably required to cure the default, in order to preserve continuation of this Compact. The state hereby agrees that this subsection is severable from this Compact and shall automatically be severed from this Compact in the event that the United States Department of the Interior determines that these provisions exceed the state's authority under IGR
So it sounds like it will auto-renew if the bolded provisions are met. That provision seems to read that either side can request a renegotiation. Seems like Stitt has a LOT of power in this situation. Just submit a request to renegotiate and the tribes have to.
I'm no lawyer. But it seems to read that it will only auto-renew if those provisions are met. That being said there may be many other agreements and I've no insight into them.So Stitt is correct about negotiation time and the tribes are incorrect?
Approved by voters in 2004, Oklahoma’sState-Tribal Gaming Act created a tribal gaming compact allowing federally recognized American Indian tribes to operate:I know nothing of this discipline.
But I've always been lead to believe the stipend to the state is miniscule and pathetic.
True, or not?
Thanks for the timely, detailed response.Approved by voters in 2004, Oklahoma’sState-Tribal Gaming Act created a tribal gaming compact allowing federally recognized American Indian tribes to operate:
The current compact expires Jan. 1, 2020.
- Electronic bonanza-style bingo games
- Electronic amusement games
- Electronic instant bingo games
- Non house-banked card games
The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988 mandates that net revenues of such gaming be directed to tribes for government, economic development and general welfare use; to charitable organizations and to help fund local governments.
I have no idea what the actual revenue numbers are to the state.
Compacted tribes also must pay monthly exclusivity fees to the state for both electronic and table games.
Fees for electronic games:
Fees for table games:
- 4 percent of the first $10 million of annual adjusted gross revenues (the total minus prize payouts)
- 5 percent of the next $10 million of of AGR
- 6 percent of AGR over $20 million
- 10 percent of the monthly net win
Welcome back, toon town!So... where are the usual cries of racism here? What, these indians can't make money on their own without giving them special laws? Why can't white men open casinos too?

I think the white man could open casinos but he has chosen not to.
Blathering in the morning
Sys is wrong AGAIN
Why can’t his brain work better
White man can open a casino in Oklahoma now.
Someone ^^^ doesn't know the history of tribal sovereignty, Native American gaming, the Supreme Court, and state and federal government involvement. Instead of being a red assed retard, do some reading, toon.So in response to like.... the most obvious racial preference ever, theres an insult followed by an uninformed opinion and insult. Conservatism winning on the battleground of logic yet again.
