I AM proud to be Native American

I AM proud to be Native American, I DO love my land and I do NOT litter!! Maybe Bonnie Sickles should have chosen her words differently in last weeks Leader. Turtle Lake Rd is not only travelled by Native Americans, those beer cans, wine bottles, and trash, couldn't have only been thrown there by natives. People litter, yes PEOPLE, not WE people, or YOU people. PEOPLE! Does it need to be stopped? Yes. Should it be cleaned? Yes. But do not catergorize the Native Americans as the only PEOPLE littering Turtle Lake Rd! Maybe Bonnie should use her camera to catch a clue.
