Give them back their feathers is theirs for religious purposes, and ceremonial purposes that is so wrong with they did so so wrong
If one is Native American they would be exempt from prosecution regarding feathers used for religious and cultural purposes. I hope they win their lawsuit.
Mexican Native American tribes aren’t federally recognized so In America they aren’t native
@@foo6851ther are native peoples they were in America pre conquest..its white america who disagrees..typical European immigrants
Federal government does not care
Deleting my messages thanks utub
This act has been declared as a colonial European illegal law in the US, with confiscating indigenous first nations peoples property in which violates indigenous people right of passage on turtle island. This colonial act has been pressed on our people since 1492, we as indigenous people of turtle island don't need to have no permission to ask, to pay nor to show any qualifications to migrate on our own continent within the illegal laws of our foreign oppressor's and its people.
That’s messed up!
Dangerous feathers.. 👮🏻 are afraid of butterflies.. Thank you👮🏻 for keeping us safe
Jajaja Dangerous feathers?
This is horrible! I hope justice is done
Thats just silly.
Im an aztec danzante and this really is an insult to us. We dont hunt the birds for their feathers. The feathers are gathered when the birds start or complete the molten process. the reason these birds are endangered is because of Serious Habitat Loss and are hunted just for the game. These feathers are expensive. They can range from $3.00 to $35.00 depending on the size. Each headress holds over 200 feathers. Our headress is a crown so each feather is like a jewel. The feathers also connect us to our gods the higher or longer the feather the closer to them. We wear our headress when we do ceremonies, funerals or special events. they are a symbol of power, beauty, and cultural significance. So they are not just feathers.
Are you native friend? If so how do you feel about non natives performing indigenous danza?
Why did she fail to declare them? Hiding stuff from customs of any country results in fines and confiscation.
I don’t think she was hiding them. I think it’s what she brings all the time. It’s part of a ceremony. Like a cardinal with his robes and staff.
In sumones house now smh
This border is devaluing & embarrasing my family
They all way much more then a million dollars
They can’t just go buy feathers and make their own? They’re just feathers.
That’s the most brain dead argument I’ve ever heard. “Hey I know this extremely important religious family heirloom was confiscated but can you just buy another one that’s similar?” See how stupid you sound bro ?
people cant make feathers first of all and feathers are expensive hundreds of feathers are thousands of dollars get some education before you comment
WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO DECLARE..???? IM ON THEIR SIDE BUT IF YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DECLARE CANT HELP YOU
who cares
I care nimrod!
Narcissist Alert: Vote enthusiastically with environmentalist bird loving Democrats but angry when you get handed your own rules.
A well stated truth.
She can't vote for democrats, she's Mexican
If pictures of a dead family member are confiscated what makes them think feathers won’t be?
Pictures of family members are way more personal then some feathers. Not to mention they’re absolutely no use to anyone.
It’s just a picture but the feathers are considered religious artifacts for them
Good. It’s America, not Guadalajara
Ahh its the fragile spirit people . Triggered by feathers 🤣
@@LC-xn4dpyall get triggered by people calling you the wrong pronoun
@@elipse0 who is yall? If you mean hispanics well you couldn’t be even more wrong, spanish is literally a gender based language, if you mean it politically you’re also wrong im not a leftist
It's American not Europe
America is a land of immigrants and Native Americans were here first. Don't like it? Go back to Europe or whatever land y'all colonized from then.
Finish the wall!!!!!!!
Deport Europeans
A wall is unrelated to their cultural practice.
You can always go back to Europe if you dont like it.right european immigrant...
Yes finish the wall. It will protect Mexico from the USA...
Nah break the wall like what are we gonna do to you
We should also allow them to resume their human sacrifice practices, since it is also apart or their heritage/culture/religion
They can have their culture across the border
@@jonspengler5891 but we need to keep wages down and inflation high in our country
The act of Human sacrifice is in humanities heritage and culture in general some just did it later that others
@@theeevoloneEuropeans are resuming their practice of human sacrifices in Hollywood and at the Vatican.
@@LC-xn4dpEuropeans were human sacrificing (torturing, burning) random women and girls during the 16th century and that lasted over 200 years after.
The agents need to recognize the USA would not be as beautiful as it is if it weren’t for the Native Americans not to mention that, that decor is apart of their culture & religion.
