YOUNG NATIVE MAN SHOT TO DEATH BY CHUBBUCK [POCATELLO  IDAHO AREA] POLICE
OFFICER

Felipe Galloway [Shoshone/Bannock], wanted locally on a parole violation,
was shot to death on Saturday, December 21 -- and police, thus far, will not
indicate whether he was actually armed.  Since three days have now passed,
it seems unlikely that he was.  Chubbuck is essentially a suburb of
Pocatello and adjoins the Fort Hall Indian Reservation. Chubbuck police have
asked the Pocatello Police Department to "investigate" the situation --
ostensibly objectively [!] -- and the local newspaper, Idaho State Journal,
always right there to white-wash lawmen injustices, proclaimed on page 3
today [12/24/02] that "Shooting victim had long criminal history."  There
were a number of offenses -- far, far indeed from capital ones -- and
Felipe Galloway was only 23.

This is simply one more event -- obviously one of the most tragic yet -- in
the deteriorating racial situation in and around Pocatello, Idaho.  There
will
be much more on all of this. See for updates

In our Gray Hole, the ghosts often dance in the junipers and sage, on the
game trails, in the tributary canyons with the thick red maples, and on the
high windy ridges -- and they dance from within the very essence of our own
inner being. They do this especially when the bright night moon shines down
on the clean white snow that covers the valley and its surroundings.  Then
it is as bright as day -- but in an always soft and mysterious and
remembering way. [Hunterbear]
