HILO Puna Councilwoman Jen Ruggles was twice asked to leave council committee meetings Tuesday, after she abruptly announced she would not be voting because of her concerns over Native Hawaiian sovereignty and whether her votes constitute war crimes.
Ruggles, ... after dropping her re-election bid in June, left Kona council chambers following tense exchanges with Corporation Counsel Joe Kamelamela ...
At issue for Ruggles is a letter Keanu Sai of the Kingdom of Hawaii sent to elected officials.
The letter included a Feb. 25 memorandum from an independent expert to the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights that characterized the Hawaiian Islands as a sovereign nation-state in continuity; but a nation-state that is under a strange form of occupation by the United States resulting from an illegal military occupation and a fraudulent annexation.
Ruggles said she subsequently did her own research, and has retained Honolulu attorney Stephen Laudig to help her determine whether her official council actions could make her criminally liable under international humanitarian law. Her office provided the media with a 394-page letter Laudig sent Kamelamela earlier Tuesday.
The councilwoman said she will refrain from voting ... until Kamelamela gives her a formal opinion she isnt breaking international law...
The Native Hawaiian sovereignty movement and activists were buzzing with the news shortly after Ruggles sent out a press release and her comments played out over county live webcasts. Many took heart in the enunciation by an elected public official of their own long-held concerns.
This is what bona fide due diligence looks like, activist Suzy Case said in a Facebook post. Every person serving in any government should question the motivations of every law, every single time
especially if there is a question of possible war crimes or crimes against humanity.

Jan Ruggles chose not to run for re-election, and is now even more fruitcake nuts than she was before.
And is giving "hope" to every left wing activist on FB.
(Apologies to fruitcakes everywhere).
In case you are wondering, here is the website of the "Acting" Minister of the Interior:

Me ka ‘oia’i’o (Sincerely),
David Keanu Sai, Ph.D.
Chairman of the Council of Regency
Acting Minister of the Interior
I am thankful that he translated from Old Hawaiian to English for us.
Wonder if he is rejecting his shameful imperialist paycheck from the University of Hawaii?
I have a solution that will make everyone happy.
Everyone that wants Hawaii to become an independent country, move to Puerto Rico.
Then we cut PR loose as an independent country.
See?
Win-win!
Unmistakable.
GUILTY!!!
Oh PLEASE. Declare Independence. And take western California with you.
Book ‘er, Danno.
Unless it's what democrats want, in which case just agree like the good sheeple you are.
Agreed. Take Zero with you.
She’d probably prefer Kono, a brudda.
It would then be under Chinese control before you could say “aloha”!
Zeus! Apollo! Attack!
He obviously charges by the word.
“activist Suzy Case”.
Could someone please explain to me how an “activist” earns a living? Who signs their paycheck?
Shooting for an undergrad degree in Economics and Management ... ought to be fun when a union moves in a threatens her employees.
Do tenured professors put something in the water fountains in Economic Depts to poison every mind that walks in?
Or is it taught in their courses?
Guilty? Let’s see her in a swim suit competition.
