The following is an excerpt from an AP news article;
"Santee Sioux leaders plan to grow their own pot and sell it in a smoking lounge that includes a nightclub, arcade games, bar and food service, and eventually, slot machines and an outdoor music venue.
"We want it to be an adult playground," tribal President Anthony Reider said. "There's nowhere else in American that has something like this.""
The following statement is mine.
No word on Tommy Chong or Snoop Dog providing entertainment or reserving suites in this economic endeavor for this tribe. Matters of this kind for other tribes investing in similar projects has been prohibitive, since federal monies would be withheld because of the federal stance on marijuana. It seems there might actually be sovereignty for this tribe. They may possibly set precedence for other native tribes.
