June 4th.
<br />The Doctrine of Discovery is a restatement of principles found in Papal Bulls regarding land claims in the Americas. There is no definitive text.
<br />
<br />A Papal Bull is a statement, made by the Pope, intended to settle some important question. To gain support for the decision, it may restate commonly held ideas.
<br />
<br />One commonly held idea, included in the Papal Bulls, was that killing and subduing of peoples encountered in far away lands is fine. This was in keeping with the capturing of peoples and selling them into slavery, popular since the dawn of time.
<br />
<br />The primary statement, the purpose, of the Papal Bulls was to reduce the risk of war between European countries over land claims in the Americas. Use of the Papal Bulls for any other purpose is a misinterpretation, and the so-called Doctrine of Discovery is such a misinterpretation.
<br />
<br /><a href="http://doctrineofdiscovery.org/">Website</a>, part of a Conference in Syracuse, in May.
<br /> -----------
<br />Even assuming that the doctrine to be relevant,
<br />are there not Constitutional problems with the Courts relying on it
<br />the adoption of the Bill of Rights?
<br />
<br /> 1st amendment: The doctrine involves a religious test to establish title
<br /> 5th amendment: No person shall be deprived of property

<br />The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_doctrine">doctrine of the discovery</a>. It favors the ones who wrote the doctrine down on paper, and doubtless the indians have something written down on paper that favors their claim to the title of the land. The doctrine favors one religion, ours, naturally, since Christians can be trusted not to violate the Bill of Rights. But this doctrine does conflict with provisions in the First Amendment. <br />
We need to be giving a lot of land back, pronto.

A small demonstration at the Niagara Falls Drone Base, on April 1st 2014, which is the first day of the new drone program. We sent a <a href="http://bit.ly/Pep9Wy">letter</a> to the Niagara County DA asking for an investigation.<br />
Niagara Falls was the home of a prominent crime family, that was at one time associated with a program of assassinations. A sign reminded the passers-by of our local heritage.<br />We hope that the Drone Base can manage to not fall below this level of civic mindedness. <br />
