TomK - someone on the protesters' side flew a Palestinian flag. I'm sure that's perfectly legal, but consider what that entails.
Yesterday at the Hilo protest I saw at least two Palestinian flags and several signs condemning the situation in Gaza. But do pray tell what more it entails other than some cloth, wind, and people in Hawaii legally expressing their concerns about mass destruction and tens-of-thousands of innocents being killed.
More directly related to this thread were the creative chant "Only shaved ice in Hawaii" and the more subversive sign slogan "No one is illegal on stolen land". Plenty to unpack there about the nature of Land and Power for those so inclined (but maybe, like me, they weren't born here and so should just keep quiet and be respectful...)
