Congress: Nearly five decades after statehood, the U.S. House passes a bill classifying American citizens by race and establishing apartheid in Hawaii. Is the U.S. about to have its own separatist movement?
We have observed that if there was ever a place that came close to Martin Luther King's dream of people being judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin, it is Hawaii.
"One of the greatest examples of a multiethnic society living in relative peace" is how the state's longtime U.S. senator, Democrat Daniel Inouye, once described it.
Last Wednesday, the House voted 261-153, with an incredible 39 Republicans in the majority, to approve the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act, sponsored by one of Hawaii's two representatives, Democrat Neil Abercrombie.
The other, Democrat Mazie K. Hirono, says: "This is a historic vote and one that helps to perpetuate righteousness by righting a historic wrong."

Native Hawaiians are the most overtly racist people I've ever come across.
Ironic, how the ones who scream “Tolerance NOW!!” the most, practice it the least...
I’ve heard that. It just shows the absurdity of political rhetoric when compared to the reality.
Odd...every military person I’ve met who was stationed there says it is the most racist state in the union. And this will make it worse, if possible.
Just as in the universities’ Black Studies Departments of the 70s, the Hawaiian Studies Departments are heralding the future, as told in the dangerous rhetoric of these bogus PhDs.
The aka “Crank up the casinos and fake hawaiian grifters looking for handouts” bill.
WOW typical Haole.... What you mean racist Brah, you come out Waianae and say dat me an bruddah Sam and you get da kine racist butt whoopin..
LOL
I spend 6 years in Hawaii... Loved every minute of paradise.. wish I could retire there forever...
Yes it is. I was born and raised there. Its a big melting pot in a beautiful setting, but still massively racist once you get away from all the paradise fluff.
And now its become a big democratic alamo filled with burnt out hippies like Neil Ambercrombie who are annointed senators and reps for life as long as they grease the right unions and suck up to natives with tax payer funded handouts.
I will probably never visit Hawaii because all my life on every single chance encounter with a Polynesian I get the willies across my back. Even today at a convenience store in Alaska it happened. They hate Haoles bottom line.
Is that you, Beth (Chapman)? LOL
The “self governing” Indian tribes have not been very successful and reservations have to operate under a hodgepodge of tribal, state and federal laws. The result has been chaos. Why native Hawaiians would want to emulate such a totally failed model is beyond me.
Hawaiian scholar Rubellite Johnson, who helped establish the Hawaiian studies program at the University of Hawaii, says much of the supposed historical justification for this legislation is “a distortion of the truth.” Not only was the U.S. “not directly involved” in the forced abdication of Queen Liliuokalani, Johnson says, but most of the Hawaiian monarchy supported U.S. annexation.
Neil Abercrombie was a POS UofH student and antiwar activist when I was stationed at Hickam AFB from 1969-1972. I couldn’t believe it when the dirtbag was elected to Congress.
Actually......they don’t practice tolerance at all, Sarge. It’s just a political slogan.
Now, why would they want to something dumb and silly like that?
Why are we paying these people in Congress. They certainly know nothing?
Why are they even in Congress?
No Kidding.....
LOL I wish with the money the Chapmans got I could live well in the land of Luau’s.... Maybe I’ll hit the lottery... then its Aloha....
“Actually......they don’t practice tolerance at all, Sarge. It’s just a political slogan.”
All sign wavers on Kamehameha Ave know this.
