In our opinion, this is a 'Kangaroo Court'.

This can only be enforced in Tribal court.

The Indian Civil Rights act of 1968 states, in part, that no Indian tribe shall make or enforce any law that prohibits Freedom of Speech. (Defamation of character, Undue Stress, and they violated our Freedom of Speech) We asked for copies of our statements and or a reference # to the incident report but we were denied both. All this time the people in the restaurant and people in the casino were looking at us as if we were criminals. We are only to assume the bus girl had made the false accusation, as the security personnel said, the girls behind the counter were not the ones who notified them. When the suited security personnel returned, they apologized and said there had been a misunderstanding and the girls behind the counter said our statements were true. During this time, our I.D.'s were returned and we were told we had to wait. We were detained by the Pocola Choctaw Casino Police for almost an hour. While the armed officer stood guard over us, the other security personnel took our I.D.'s to make copies and went to talk to the girls behind the counter. They forced us to write statements as to what we had said at the counter. They said we had been accused of threatening the girls behind the counter. Then, this armed officer and 2 more security personnel in suits, (with different type badges, one with the same insignia as the tribal police) approached us and demanded to see our I.D.'s.

During our meal, we noticed an armed security officer talking with the bus girl in the dining area. He agreed saying that if he had the job he might have to reach across the counter and slap a customer who was being rude. I made the comment to my husband that the girls behind the counter had a hard job.

On New Year's Day, 2011 at about 1:15 a.m., my husband and I stood in line for about 20 minutes at the Blue Moon Cafe for the breakfast special.
