"So democracy is a fairytale, and an ethnic group rising up to take over a nation against the will of the majority is what you look forward to? I don't know about all that, man. Seems like some kind of sick racist fantasy, like "the south will rise again"."
That was my immediate thought when I read MyMano's post - with a slight "racial" twist:
At any event, I see a new protest about a planned development project at Punalu'u Black Sand Beach. My bet is yet another golf course, non-union built shoddy multimillion dollar ocean front homes, adherence to regulations and permitting a millimeter above the lowest acceptable norm coupled with a wink wink inspection process coupled with endless infrastructure promises that will never get built - while at the same time, the 600 million granted to DHHL will never get spent helping one Native Hawaiian and TMT will languish into obscurity.
And to this "occupying outsider" - I find that a bigger afront to Hawaiian Sovereignty, Hawaii Culture and the Hawaiian Race than anything.
