I have repeatedly made this clear to my supporters through public statements over the years of my imprisonment. Threatening violence, or far worse, perpetrating violence, is not only heinous and loathsome, but will compromise our honest and righteous efforts to seek justice in my case as well as justice for all Native Peoples. In fact, such tactics so obviously contradict what I stand for and what all of my supporters stand for, that I must question the true intent of whoever is doing this. Clearly this person does not hold my interests at heart. As Native Peoples, our traditional values teach us that all life is sacred and should be protected.
Any act of violence perpetrated upon innocent people violates our most sacred beliefs.
We have already witnessed the horrifying and devastating outcome of the Oklahoma City Bombing in which so many died needlessly, including children. I fully denounce any scheme that has the potential to cause this type, or any type of death and despair.
