I, Janis Schmidt, find it somewhat ironic that Fire Thunder rants and rails against her removal. On October 14, 2005, Fire Thunder, ordered her attack dog, then chief-of-police Harold Brewer to remove me from the Pine Ridge Reservation, in an exclusion order in which I had no opportunity for a hearing before the Council. In her Order, Fire Thunder claimed I was a menace and threat to tribal members because I had formed a civil rights organization and wrote about official wrongdoings in the local paper. And most of all, she didn't like the lawsuit I had filed against tribal judge Lisa Cook for having illegally evicted me from the 2 story house I had built, seized my house and ordered me arrested and jailed, all without jurisdiction, law, court order, or warrant. All I can say to Fire Thunder is, "what goes around comes around, babe!"Janishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07880456614456534708noreply@blogger.com
