Potential restrictions to Mauna Kea access

[Amrita]

"The allusions to Hawaiian culture (sacredness and aloha 'aina) is part of the opportunism - it's a convenient cover that can't be legally challenged or rationally argued. (For those who would like to challenge me on that statement, how many of the protestors/protectors have ever shown up for the volunteer invasive weed pulling Saturdays organized on a regular basis for several years by OMKM? - How many have volunteered to repair the vandalized fencing - likely instigated/inspired by Palikapu Dedman and his cohorts - that was installed to exclude damaging ungulates from the Natural Area Reserves?) This, to my thinking, is all just another example of the further use and abuse of Hawaiian culture, and of other sincere but credulous Hawaiians, in the interest of very modern objectives. "

I like your thinking you nailed it.
