No, I don't believe they have a right to sue. That's capitalism at its finest!
The policing issue is a whole 'nother story. I read about it briefly...
The Bureau of Indian Affairs Police, usually known as the BIA Police is the law enforcement arm of the Bureau of Indian Affairs which polices Indian tribes and reservations that don't have their own police force, and oversee other tribal police organizations. BIA Police services are provided through the Office of Justice Services Law Enforcement.[1]
A BIA Police Officer is a Federal Police Officer who enforces federal law relating to Indian Country, including, but not limited to Title 16, Title 18, and Title 21 of the United States Code as well as the Code of Federal Regulations. BIA has nationwide jurisdiction to enforce federal law relating to crimes committed within or involving Indian Country and officers are usually found near the various Indian Reservations. BIA Police Officers may enforce tribal law if the tribe consents by deputizing the BIA and its officers. In some cases, BIA Police Officers are granted authority to enforce tribal law by tribal ordinance or statute. They may also be granted authority to enforce state laws by state statute.
The lack of enforcement is a separate issue from whether or not those stores have the right to sell beer. They do.
