Indian ghost reservation

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.

An Indian Ghost Reservation is a tract of land set aside by the government for the inhabitation of Indian Ghosts. This land was set aside after a unanimous Supreme Court ruling in the case Chief Running Deer V. Grames, in favor of Grames and the ghosts of White Settlers.

[edit] The Trial of Tears

The ruling settled an argument between Jim Grames and the ghost of Chief Running Deer. Grames, who had dug up and moved a sacred Indian burial ground so that he could build his home on the land, argued that upon his death the home and the land surrounding it rightly belonged to him and that his ghost would have sole ownership. Chief Running Deer's argument was very simply that he was there first. The court ruled in favor of Mr. Grames due to the fact that he, and therefore his ghost, had legal ownership of the property. Indians, and their ghosts, argued that it is impossible to own the land and that it belongs to all the creatures. Then the Supreme court laughed and laughed and laughed.

This ruling caused the eviction of thousands of Indian Ghosts from their resting places, pushed out by the White Ghosts who all had legal ownership. The government, knowing it needed to relocate the Indian ghosts someplace, set aside tracts of land where the Indian Ghosts could reside. The indian ghosts were herded onto trailers pulled by tractors to their new homes. Children watching as the procession moved down their city streets would stand alongside and watch. As a plea for mercy, the Indian ghosts would throw the children small candies and trinkets. Everyone agreed this was lots of fun and they started doing it annually.

However, the land set aside would grow increasingly small as White Ghosts moved in on the land claiming it as their own.

These days, Indian Ghosts Reservations are notable only for the fact that they're the only place where hunting Ghost Buffalo (and other extinct animals) and running Ghost Casinos are legal by the Indian Ghost Natives.

Ghost Dancing is also popular at these locations.
