CAN I FILE A LAW SUIT against ENVIRONMENTALIST GROUPS for discrimination?

Question

Indians can do any thing they choose to on there own reservation or land. Drill for oil, cut trees, fish and hunt all year. Maybe even build a nuclear energy plant and the environmetalist don`t bother them. I`m not allowed to do these things on my land! So, are Environmentalist group discriminating again me because I am not Indian

Answer 1

sure, that's one of the things about America, anyone can file a lawsuit, just like any lawsuit can be dismissed as frivolous

Answer 2

Indians usually choose not to destroy the land they are on by digging oil rigs ect. You can NOT say in a court of law that the groups are discriminating when they themselves are not allowed by National law to mess with operations in reservations though that has not stopped some. They are not discriminating against you, but following a law...

Answer 3

what in the world would you sue them for? you could try to sue the US government, but they will just laugh at you.  i'm not sure, but i think indian land is their own land with their own rules.. so it has nothing to do with discrimination..

Answer 4

this is the most ridiculous question..... do you WANT to drill for oil, cut down trees and hunt?   so you'd be filing a lawsuit in order to gain rights to destroy our environment??????  wow, you're cool.  and if you RECALL native americans were here first and they have special rights, we stole their land so get over it.  You'd never win anyways.  

ps. if you sue environmentalist groups.....you're furthering the destruction of the earth....and knocking down the only people who are trying to help it.

Answer 5

Technically, Indian Reservations are their own countries... so you could try, but  you wouldn't win.

Answer 6

Indian nations are exempt from many laws because there lands are governed by their tribal government, not state laws. This is why tribes can have casinos in states that outlaw gambling. They can do some of these things because of their unique status.

It isn't the environmental groups that OK drilling and whatnot; it's the U.S. government. Your problem is with the government, not an independent group.

You're more than welcome to file a lawsuit against the government saying you should have governmental status, as tribes, do but you can imagine how well that's going to go.
