Give them back their feathers is theirs for religious purposes, and ceremonial purposes that is so wrong with they did so so wrong
Im an aztec danzante and this really is an insult to us. We dont hunt the birds for their feathers. The feathers are gathered when the birds start or complete the molten process. the reason these birds are endangered is because of Serious Habitat Loss and are hunted just for the game. These feathers are expensive. They can range from $3.00 to $35.00 depending on the size. Each headress holds over 200 feathers. Our headress is a crown so each feather is like a jewel. The feathers also connect us to our gods the higher or longer the feather the closer to them. We wear our headress when we do ceremonies, funerals or special events. they are a symbol of power, beauty, and cultural significance. So they are not just feathers.
Are you native friend? If so how do you feel about non natives performing indigenous danza?
But you are not Native to America. Native Americans are not in the same category as Aztecs or Mayans.
@@user-se5ef5pl3o they're mesoamerican natives
This act has been declared as a colonial European illegal law in the US, with confiscating indigenous first nations peoples property in which violates indigenous people right of passage on turtle island. This colonial act has been pressed on our people since 1492, we as indigenous people of turtle island don't need to have no permission to ask, to pay nor to show any qualifications to migrate on our own continent within the illegal laws of our foreign oppressor's and its people.
Dangerous feathers.. 👮🏻 are afraid of butterflies.. Thank you👮🏻 for keeping us safe
Jajaja Dangerous feathers?
That’s messed up!
This is horrible! I hope justice is done
Thats just silly.
Why did she fail to declare them? Hiding stuff from customs of any country results in fines and confiscation.
I don’t think she was hiding them. I think it’s what she brings all the time. It’s part of a ceremony. Like a cardinal with his robes and staff.
Bro thier feathers
Narcissist Alert: Vote enthusiastically with environmentalist bird loving Democrats but angry when you get handed your own rules.
A well stated truth.
She can't vote for democrats, she's Mexican
who cares
I care nimrod!
Get a life fuck nugget. Mexico and it's history is something beautiful. Go to school and learn fucking low life..
They can’t just go buy feathers and make their own? They’re just feathers.
That’s the most brain dead argument I’ve ever heard. “Hey I know this extremely important religious family heirloom was confiscated but can you just buy another one that’s similar?” See how stupid you sound bro ?
people cant make feathers first of all and feathers are expensive hundreds of feathers are thousands of dollars get some education before you comment
Because It’s way deeper than that
In sumones house now smh
WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO DECLARE..???? IM ON THEIR SIDE BUT IF YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DECLARE CANT HELP YOU
They are indigenous to Mexico the only has some usa states for 27 years. NATIVE AMERICANS ARE NOT MEXICAN at all.
If pictures of a dead family member are confiscated what makes them think feathers won’t be?
Pictures of family members are way more personal then some feathers. Not to mention they’re absolutely no use to anyone.
It’s just a picture but the feathers are considered religious artifacts for them
Finish the wall!!!!!!!
Deport Europeans
A wall is unrelated to their cultural practice.
You can always go back to Europe if you dont like it.right european immigrant...
Yes finish the wall. It will protect Mexico from the USA...

@@LC-xn4dpyall get triggered by people calling you the wrong pronoun
@@elipse0 who is yall? If you mean hispanics well you couldn’t be even more wrong, spanish is literally a gender based language, if you mean it politically you’re also wrong im not a leftist
It's American not Europe
America is a land of immigrants and Native Americans were here first. Don't like it? Go back to Europe or whatever land y'all colonized from then.
We should also allow them to resume their human sacrifice practices, since it is also apart or their heritage/culture/religion
They can have their culture across the border
@@jonspengler5891 but we need to keep wages down and inflation high in our country
The act of Human sacrifice is in humanities heritage and culture in general some just did it later that others
@@theeevoloneEuropeans are resuming their practice of human sacrifices in Hollywood and at the Vatican.
@@LC-xn4dpEuropeans were human sacrificing (torturing, burning) random women and girls during the 16th century and that lasted over 200 years after.
