He asked to remain anonymous, for fear of retribution.</i><br /><br /><b>Will the tribe’s lawsuit against the beer makers, distributors and sellers help?</b><br /><br />I think it will, because Whiteclay is where a lot of people on Pine Ridge get alcohol. In a few minutes, you can stroll down there from Pine Ridge village, the biggest population center on the reservation, right over the South Dakota-Nebraska line. Sometimes people go several times a day. So if you stop the liquor trade in Whiteclay, you severely limit access to alcohol on Pine Ridge.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478763837213733775noreply@blogger.com
