At a gathering on Fri in Taos, New Mexico, Native AmericanĀ leaders weighed some of proposals concerning the longer term solution of the United Stateās massive, unlawful European population. Ā Once a protracted discussion, NANC determined to increase a road to citizenship for those not having criminal records or contagious diseases.
āWeĀ will give EuropeansĀ the optionĀ to apply for NativeĀ Citizenship,ā explained ChiefĀ Sauti of theĀ Nez PerceĀ tribe. āTo obtain legal status, each applicant must write a heartfelt apology for their ancestorsā crimes, pay an application fee of $5,000, and, if currently on any ancestral Native land, they must relinquish that land to NANC or payĀ the market price, which we decide.”
āAny illegalĀ European who has a criminal record of any sort, minus trafficĀ and parking tickets,Ā will be deported back to their native land. Anybody withĀ contagious diseases like HIV, smallpox, herpes, etc, will not qualify and willĀ also be deported.ā
Despite this seemingly good news from the councilās decision not every one is on side/, A Native American group called True Americans lambasted the move, claiming amnesty will only serve to reward lawbreakers.
āThey all need to be deported back to Europe,ā John Dakota from True Americans said. āThey came here illegally and took a giant crap on our land. TheyĀ brought disease and alcoholism, stole everything we have because they were too lazy to improve and develop their own countries.ā

The Nez Perce /ĖnÉzĖpÉrs/ (autonym: NiimĆipu) are an American Indian tribe who live in the Pacific Northwest region (Columbia River Plateau) of the United States. An anthropological interpretation says they descended from the Old Cordilleran Culture, which moved south from the Rocky Mountains and west into lands where the tribe coalesced.[2] The federally recognized Nez Perce Nation currently governs and lives within its reservation in Idaho.[3] Their name for themselves is NimĆipuu (pronounced [nimiĖpuĖ]), meaning, “The People,” in their language, part of the Sahaptin family.[4]
They speak the Nez Perce language or NiimiipuutĆmt, a Sahaptian language related to the several dialects of Sahaptin. The Sahaptian sub-family is one of the branches of the Plateau Penutian family (which in turn may be related to a largerPenutian grouping).
