Travel ban judge is only Native Hawaiian on federal bench
Hono Star Ad ^ | March 15 , 2017 | Associated Press

The judge who halted President Donald Trump’s revised travel ban is the only Native Hawaiian serving on the federal bench.

Nominated by former President Barack Obama in 2012, U.S. District Judge Derrick Kahala Watson is the fourth Native Hawaiian federal judge in U.S. history.

He’s a graduate of Kamehameha Schools, which gives admission preference to Native Hawaiians.

They are traitors “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.” ― Marcus Tullius Cicero

What is ironic is that native Hawaiians often are not that fond of tourists or others moving to their islands.

Apparently, terrorists are welcome, however.

we need to ship all the refugees straight to Hawaii. they can all live right next to Obama and I can pretty much guarantee that once they’re there, most of them will never want to leave.

I would imagine an attack by terrorists on Hawaii is pretty remote.

So they could care less.

Graduated from Harvard Law the same year as Obama. Obama appointed him to the bench.

He is a smart guy, but apparently puts his own career in Democrat Party dominated Hawaii ahead of his ethics.

And Hawaii already has the worst homeless problem in the country. Let’s put a few more thousand people on the streets, committing crime, crapping on the streets, stealing anything that isn’t nailed down.

No such thing as native hawaiian.

They only beat Captain Cook by a few hundred years.

This bastard needs to be in jail. When the Hawaiian governor tried that touchy feely bull**** about Syrian “refugees”, the people read him the riot act and he backed down. PRESIDENT Trump needs to dump every damn Syrian in the U.S. in that “judges” backyard. Let that perverted bastard care of them.

Don’t know if you’ve been to Hawaii lately, but short of the bright, clean, fancy tourist areas, the islands I’ve seen over the past several years are 3rd world cesspools. Islamic terrorists will fit right in.
