| The state House of Representatives’ Hawaiian Affairs Committee on Wednesday recommended passage of a resolution recognizing Hawaiian nationals as a population residing lawfully in the islands. “It just brings more awareness to Hawaiian people as a whole,” said Rep. Dee Morikawa, D-16th District. “It’s about everyone in Hawai‘i.” House Resolution 68 formally recognizes the right of Hawaiian nationals — defined in the document as the authentic heirs, beneficiaries and body politic of the Hawaiian Kingdom — to organize and restore their national government in Hawai‘i. It also commits to the state government to encourage courts and law enforcement to stop “nationality-based harassment and prosecution of Hawaiian nationals,” defined in the resolution as lineal descendants of Hawaiian Kingdom subjects, anyone born in Hawai‘i or naturalized through a formal process. |

| #6 Not so, Newc. The "reinstituted government of Hawai'i" is a separatist movement. Shortly after 9/11, I was in a local restauant when i heard the local head of the movement talking on a cell phone about how "the Americans got hurt, but it wasn't his problem". I talked to him a bit later at a local park about he was trying to accomplish. I stopped listening when he informed me that only "real" Hawaiians would be able to own the aina (land). |

| #5 The Natives are having big problems with imported trailer trash. They do not have problems at all with being American, but there is this legal scope befalling them that is kind of foreign so to speak. |

| #4 Howzabout this radical idea? You're either an American, or you're not. You're either a Hawaiian, or you're not. Period. |

| #2 The prob for Native Hawaiians won't be getting China + PLA to come + save the poi, most likely via PLAN Missle Subs for now, but getting them to leave. Ditto for Radical Islam + OWG CALIPHATE NAVY iff they ever set up in PACOAS - it may not look like it right now, but they're coming. 'TIS A THREE WAY NOW. |
