This guy can go fuck himself.

I follow Last Real Indian on FB - this has been all over their page, and quite rightly.

This dude can step on a hallway full of poisoned Legos.

Dear article writer,

The word you are looking for is "wring", not "ring".

Was that really necessary?

Fuck Kevin Cramer. He is one of the biggest assholes here in North Dakota. He and the lot of misogynistic douchebags in this state need to just disappear already.

Thanks for this; I'd only heard about this through a friend of mine (native Lakota from the Standing Rock) and she was defending Cramer, although I'm not surprised considering her hate-on for the tribal council.

Yeah. I don't know much about the various Lakota reservations in North Dakota, though I've read a little/watched a few documentaries about the Pine Ridge reservation and its tragic and dysfunctional history.

It just infuriates me that someone like Cramer would have the gall to assert that passage of VAWA is a threat to white men everywhere, and not a necessary protection of the vulnerable. ughughgughgh.
