Like the thread title says, the Rappahannock Indian Tribe
got some land back.

I have no dog in this fight, whether or not there even is a fight.

What do y'all native Virginians think?  

ETA - I'm not native.  I'm an unwillingly transplanted Yankee from PA.  

I love old/real Virginia!

The casino in Norfolk hasnt even broken ground yet, and we voted on that almost 2 years ago. Meanwhile in Portsmouth, their casino is well underway.

Is it safe assume we'll get some great Youtube videos out of the Norfolk and Portsmouth casino's?
