Stepping out on a limb with this one, "If white people want babies they should have their on and stop victimizing our people with this false sense of concern. It they we so concerned about our people then they should stop stealing our children and pass laws in their US Congress that will restore Indian nations with the lands and resources they systematically stole from us over the centuries." WISHFULL THINKING!!! OK lets get real. Their courts should prosecute them for their dishonest deeds and the crooked adoption agencies as well. MORE WISHFULL THINKING!!!!! So what do we do now? Would love to hear some realistic answers.<br /><br />....and please if you can, leave religion out of this conversation.............THANK YOU!!!!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-10867760340151173142014-02-25T13:11:08.230-05:002014-02-25T13:11:08.230-05:00Blessings to you Free and thank you for all your p...Blessings to you Free and thank you for all your prayers!LThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395257432521760435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-57195640970879851632014-02-25T11:10:09.015-05:002014-02-25T11:10:09.015-05:00And to clarify: Although Veronica's birthmothe...And to clarify: Although Veronica's birthmother’s attorney contacted the Cherokee Nation about the birthfather’s Indian status, the request misreported Father’s birth date and misspelled his name. (And they were high school sweethearts so this was on purpose)... Then, on forms that govern the transfer of children between states, Maldonado identified Veronica as Hispanic, not Indian. If her heritage had been reported accurately, Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children staff would have contacted the Cherokee Nation before the infant was allowed to leave Oklahoma.LThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395257432521760435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-4394770789413341832014-02-25T11:06:03.730-05:002014-02-25T11:06:03.730-05:00With the briefs in this case, every Supreme Court ...With the briefs in this case, every Supreme Court Justice had ample opportunity to learn and then rule.LThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395257432521760435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-91152619819463714012014-02-25T11:03:48.691-05:002014-02-25T11:03:48.691-05:00Thanks Dana for these comments - it's very imp...Thanks Dana for these comments - it's very important to this case to know what Maldondao did and why. Could she be mentally imbalanced? It's possible. I expect that one day we will know the entire truth.<br />Did the Nightlight Adoption Agency control this situation (when they gave incorrect information to the Cherokee Nation) or did they tell Maldonado to follow their lead with promises of cash? On both, yes. It's looking that way to me.<br />Any father who wants to raise his own child deserves the chance. Dusten did everything he could legally but it was too late and not enough - considering the maneuvering of the Capobiancos and their lawyers and the media campaign.<br />When money is exchanged for infants, it's trafficking. They might call it adoption but it's actually producing babies for couples like the Capobiancos to purchase.<br />If what I heard at Yale is true, with the shortage of infants available to adopt, Indian Country is the first place they'll go and poverty is reason enough for Nightlight and others to target us.LThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395257432521760435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-62066276067624353132014-02-25T10:11:10.041-05:002014-02-25T10:11:10.041-05:00Oh, and I wish it were possible to nullify the Sup...Oh, and I wish it were possible to nullify the Supreme Court decision solely on the basis of Alito misdefining what it takes to be declared a member of the Cherokee Nation. You don't need special classes in Indian law to know this one--the information's available widely. Ancestry on the Dawes Rolls is the main deciding factor, not blood quantum. If Alito couldn't take the time to educate himself on that--a quick chat with any official of the Cherokee Nation would have been sufficient, and they could have pointed him to documentation--then the rest of his reasoning is suspect too.Dana Seilhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11749354913843954242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-67322289358652294152014-02-25T10:08:06.985-05:002014-02-25T10:08:06.985-05:00I know from the reports that Maldonado had (at lea...I know from the reports that Maldonado had (at least) two children already, and had lost custody of them to their father, and was obligated to pay them support. So at least part of her motivation in adopting Veronica out was probably to avoid another child-support judgment.<br /><br />But wait! you might say. She was engaged to marry! The relationship was apparently going fine!<br /><br />Yeah, maybe. And maybe she had met herself a new fella while Dusten was gone. She'd already expressed dissatisfaction with his military lifestyle, apparently, but she had to know that in that smallish town with Dusten's family and their mutual friends *everywhere*, eventually word would get back to him if she messed around, and it'd be over. And then she'd probably lose custody too. If he'd been single when that all came out it would have been one thing, but with them married, all he'd have to do is choose a guardian for Veronica, and he'd have the right to do that, and he'd have a chance of winning the custody battle. Bingo, another child-support bill.<br /><br />That's the only possibility that makes sense to me. Even her refusing marriage meant she felt there was a pretty good chance the marriage would not last, and it's cheaper to not get married than to file for divorce, and of course not being married to your baby's dad means any custody dispute will work in your favor in many states. Probably including Oklahoma.<br /><br />Especially when you lie on the paperwork and happen not to mention your estranged partner's Native heritage...Dana Seilhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11749354913843954242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-5226591838878596442014-02-25T03:21:53.848-05:002014-02-25T03:21:53.848-05:00I hope and pray our prayers are answered sooner th...I hope and pray our prayers are answered sooner than we think .Hoping one day all parents will take care and love their children all over the world as they are our future and deserve their own blood line,thats why people have family trees,no one wins mixed up inside a secret puzzle and those that do the adopting could have adopted sweet animals .Many families have taken care of the mothers little ones if she can't ,not always judging the mothers ,they wanted children then suddenly fate takes it's toll and that's when the mother needs help not harm or no help,this in turn causes their baby to misss their mother automatically up to a toddler and more they cry and miss their parents .A foster care woman told me she had a little girl that cried for 3 months ,and I thought to myself I would cry to in the house of strangers like Baby Veronica ( yet I don't ever wish that or I would cry if she did do that too) Gpd Bless and May she be returned to her loving father.<3FreeAsABirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01462226249737809227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-50126741767840914302014-02-25T03:05:46.109-05:002014-02-25T03:05:46.109-05:00I have prayed and prayed to God .I know he sees al...I have prayed and prayed to God .I know he sees all and knows all ,I asked what would Jesus have said about this: Vengence is mine saith the Lord .The children are his ,no man will ever harm or get near them .The time will come when the doors will be forced open and allthe people set free as in the days of Moses when God gave him the power to part the red sea for the crossing and safety of hos people .This is how God works according to what is written and the dreams he gives to the many to prophesy as these are the days of the new beginning.When a man knows it all a man knows nothing so it was written.On and on his words tell us ,all we need to do is ask and he answers by his written word and dreams (holy)I don't know but I have judged and it says man will judge ,he does so for justice and those that judge for ill reasons not for good.Knowledge and seeking the days when adoption first started was where most start a dispute form the detailed beginning,and in my humble opinion Trace DeMeyer has really got her research right on and God will help give her and others he wants as speakers to get this sealed secret vault but a whole world and a country in measure for the ones not aware as they might think it doesn't concern them ,.This Adoption Industry involves everyone and into everything like shattered glass back in the day went into every where and effected all kinds of things,what a horrible shatter ,like a quake in a way shaking things out of their natural order.God Speed I love all gods good people whom love him back and pray for those that just won't receive his goodness ,guess they forgot their is a devil on the lose from years back causing mayhem.People cause mayhem and break the ten only 10 commandments.This was written for believers and those whom might like to read this.FreeAsABirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01462226249737809227noreply@blogger.com
