p...Let look at the word Plagiarism, or plagiarize:<br /><br />pla-gia-rize |ˈplājəˌrīz|<br /><br />verb [ trans. ]<br /><br />take (the work or an idea of someone else) and pass it off as one's own.<br />• copy from (someone) in such a way.<br /><br />Now did Rob take Ms. Shining Elk's writing and pasted his name on it claiming it as "one's own"? Obviously not since Rob has opposition towards her way of thinking. Your use of using the word Plagiarism is weak.<br /><br />"Your quotes are only from a very few of Indian people, that doesn't count or is it the voice of the majority."<br /><br />You contradicted yourself. You criticize Mr. Shmidt but yet you ask him for answers. When I read stuff and come across words, places, events, or people that I am unfamiliar with I put in some research and find out for myself. Thats the beauty of infor-mation, one person doesn't and can't know it all. We can learn something from everyone if we let ourselves learn, or we can protest.<br /><br />As for Saginaw "King of all the Indians" Grant, i don't know what to think. Quite shocked actually. Here's some info on the episode and Saginaw's evidently "uncomfortable" contribution to the Dudesons:<br /><br />http://drawingonindians.blogspot.com/2010/05/dudesons-hit-all-time-low.html<br /><br />He may be a good person and role model but something like this can easily degrade all that he has worked for in the Native Communities.<br /><br />Rob, regarding The Dudesons, it could have been "Russel Means, King of all the Indians." lol, his stance on the usage of indian would make more sense.<br /><br />~SalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-29318974647613479732010-06-07T23:29:54.400-07:002010-06-07T23:29:54.400-07:00Rob, you have mentioned Saginaw Grant in many of y...Rob, you have mentioned Saginaw Grant in many of your blogs. I feel you should give Mr. Grant the courtesy and contact him directly either by telephone or by e-mail. He can easily be reached through his management team as well. I feel that perhaps you should hear his side since you have written much about The Dudesons. Youhave heard from the protestors and how they feel about it all and I just think that it would be fair for you to hear another side and then write about it. I know that some of your information has come from other people's Facebook wall and you are only getting bits & pieces of information. I am asking nicely that you at least give Saginaw that respect and write about what he has to say. I see that you write for Pechanga.net and he is aware of that. You can easily meet Mr. Grant there also as he has many close friends there at Pechanga and attends their pow wow every year.<br />Thank you, Rob.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-39909017822751200202010-06-07T22:48:19.490-07:002010-06-07T22:48:19.490-07:00Rob are you a critic or a writer?

Your quotes are only from a very few of Indian people, that doesn't count or is it the voice of the majority. And get original and stop copying and pasting from Facebook what people say. That's plagerism and taken without their permission. Better go back to school and take another creative writing class.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
