On the heels of apologizing for its old racism in thwarting anti-lynching laws, the U.S. Senate is poised to initiate a new racism celebrated in the so-called "Akaka Bill." It would summon into being for the first time a race-based Native Hawaiian sovereignty operating outside the U.S. Constitution. Only persons with at least "one drop" of Native Hawaiian blood would enjoy the right to create the new sovereign entity with its sweeping immunities from federal and state laws. The Akaka bill would authorize and have the United States facilitate Hawaiian officials in relinquishing the State's sovereignty over a portion of its citizens and territory. In addition, it would authorize transfer of part of the state's lands, natural resources and other assets to the new race-based sovereign gratis, all without the approval of the state legislature or the consent of its citizens Proponents oppose any amendment, for example, a requirement of approval by a majority of adult Native Hawaiians before all Native Hawaiians are subjected to the new race-based government; a prohibition on racial, religious or ethnic discrimination; a proscription on secession; an injunction against evicting the U.S. military from Pearl Harbor; or, an obligation to honor the Bill of Rights. They even reject a requiring a plebiscite in Hawaii to determine if its citizens wish to carve out of every island multiple sovereign racial enclaves.

This means racially quantifying every Hawaiian resident. Genetic tests too maybe? I got a verbal smackdown from my employer (soon to be ex-exployer) for not filling out 'demographic data'. Next thing you know government will be forcing you to submit your DNA.
If this passes, how long before we have Casinos in every hotel on Hawaii..?
it sure is a kaka bill ...
There ya go! lol
OK, who's the whackjob who proposed this stupid idea?
No. We'd just become two: the blue US and the red US.
Would it really be so bad?
Would it really be so bad?"
In a word, no.
The Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act does three things.
Akaka Bill
S. 147, the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act of 2005
Read the links. The picture of Clinton signing the "apology resolution" is priceless.
Amazing. Evil never rests. After all this time, I can't believe something like this would even raise it's ugly head.
This Boyle guy is an evil, game-playing, monster.
It seems like anything goes now.
Note to self, purchase more ammunition.
