While the main character believes that he is taking a moral stance, based on textual evidence, he is not doing so. Sammy’s intention with the girls are expressed through his reaction when he first saw them walk in.
In the reading of The Round House, by Louise Erdrich, the characters are at conflict with their inability to leverage jurisdiction due to their identity as native Americans.

One illustration of this illusionary power would be when Joe states, “I had imagined that my father decided great questions of the law, that he worked on treaty rights, land restoration, that he looked murderers in the eye, that he frowned while witnesses stuttered and silences clever lawyers with a slice of injury”
