"You'd never have a motorcycle policeman out on the Indian reservation"

- Alex Cox

About this Quote

This quote by Alex Cox is a commentary on the lack of law enforcement on Native American reservations. It implies that the police existence on reservations is very little, if not nonexistent. This is likely due to the fact that Native American appointments are sovereign nations, and thus, exempt to the same laws and regulations as the rest of the United States. This absence of law enforcement can result in a lack of security and security on the reservations, as well as a lack of justice for those who are mistreated. The quote also implies that the authorities presence on reservations is so very little that it would be impossible to have a motorbike police officer patrolling the area. This is a plain contrast to the police presence in other parts of the United States, where bike police officers are a typical sight. The quote works as a pointer of the variations in between Native American appointments and the rest of the United States, and the need for increased police on bookings.
