first ..indians have no fishing rights....none

indians dont own the river...its not your river

illegal fishing still goes on to this day.....

your all in violation of the law and the dfg overlooks it........for now......stop thinking that you own the river...get it out of your heads

You didn't put a dent in the meeting as much as took away from your cause, if you have a problem with something solicit the government, after all that is your right. I agree with your stance just not with your tactics.

How are dams, which are apparently killing salmon, destroying your community? So you can't fish for salmon anymore. I believe the benefits of these dams out way the losses from fishing. You people should just cry yourselves a new river, and fish in that.

is life insignificant to you. Your life sounds like a charade you racist asshole!!!! You dont have a clue about real life. Let me educate you. The native americans here on klamath are known as the "fix the world" people. they have ceremonies to make the whole world right.. with instructions from the begining time..this is not a charade dont worry this is not the last you will see the klamath river folks so get used to it loser!!!! buh-bye

The creator, don't make me laugh. I'll bet you one Berkshire Share that your insignificant charade does nothing to remove those dams, you damn delusional fool.

[lissy252000]

you are one ignorant son of a b...the fish are the food for the people out here so calling them stupid just means you are a bad person. secondly..you must have an inside connect with the creator to think you know the dams wont be removed. well the people on the river are very close with the creator and they are doing the right thing so ask yourself if life is more important than sees candy or coke

[lissy252000]

boo hoo, poor you. the disrespect comes in when the richest man in the world wont budge to save a culture, when he could. he is full o shit and so are you.

[lissy252000]

you dont think they started with writing letters? well that didnt get anyones attention. Warren can make this happen so dont say he has no say in it. that is just a bull shit answer. i think the richest man in the world has a little pull in the matter.

[lissy252000]

I am proud of you all for going to the meeting and protesting the hell out of it. it sounds like you upset the poor little rich shareholders and put a dent in their meeting.. hooray for you all. keep up the good work

[lancemolina]

I believe the banner was completely unnecessary, if you have a problem with the company write a letter please don't distract the actual shareholders who have a real right to be there. You didn't accomplish anything but make 31,000 shareholders very upset that you were messing up our meeting. Also if you are going to ask a question actually listen... Warren told you numerous times that it isn't his decision.
