Everyone remembers November 1st when Sea Shepherd, West Coast Anti-Whaling, and other boats sailed into Neah Bay and were attacked by Makah from the shore while the police and Coast Guard stood by and watched. The Tribal Council decided to blame the whole thing on Binki. She is the only one to continually speak out against the for-profit hunt.
Free speech ends at the reservation border.
The next day as the tribal council debated on what to do about the problem including possibly banishing Binki. There were rumors that the police chief Ahdunko was planning to arrest her the next morning for inciting a riot. Late that night I was asked if I would be willing to drive onto the reservation to get Binki away from the there until things cooled down. I was a bit apprehensive considering the events of the previous day. I was told that we may have to make a speedy exit from the reservation and they wanted me to drive because I have the fastest car.
