Thanks MarkP for keeping the disagreement civil. I'm sorry to hear that but not surprised. Welcome to Hawaii. Some people are really in touch with their warrior spirit. Aunty must have a tiger shark as her amakua.
The general populous of Hawaiian culture is expected to continuously conform to Western standards and watch resources handed over without complaint. Certain Kuhunas having found new strength drew a line at their burial grounds. It's not a logical problem for these guys it's the last straw, an emotional dam that's bound to break if not respected. What seems ridiculous to you is dead serious to them and the inverse is true as well. I'm not seeing many alternate viewpoints on this thread either which at times seems like a lost chapter of Atlas Shrugged.
