400AD ....Marquesas Islanders settled Hawaii
1200AD .....Tahitian Islanders conquered the Marquesas Hawaiians (known to them as Menehune, meaning 'small in worth', not 'small in stature' ie not elf-like, they were real people enslaved, tortured, and killed off by the 2nd wave of settlers)
1778AD ..... Haole find the islands, eventually settling them, and NOT intentionally Killing off the Tahitian Hawaiians
the oldest Hawaiian Island that is still above water is over 30,000,000 years old (Kure)
Kauai about 4,500,000 years old
the Nene (goose) has been in Hawaii for 500,000 years
After Kamehameha's mass slaughters in taking over Maui, Oahu, the Big Island etc..... The so called HAWAIIAN KINGDOM lasted about 83 years total (1810-1893) ...and will NEVER truly exist again...

Isn't that what Hitler and the Nazis tried to do ? Wipe out a whole race of people ? That's a tactic that one culture or group of people has inflicted on the other. Wipe them off the face of the earth then there isn't anyone left to seek revenge or compete with for resources or property or food.

save our indigenous and endemic Hawaiian Plants... learn about them, grow them, and plant them on your property, ....instead of all that invasive non-native garbage I see in most yards... aloha
