Good catch with the gravitating to the military.

There’s a bunch of kumbayah in that article, especially that Hawaii is one big melting pot and everyone accepts everyone else no matter the race. Really? If that’s so then why was/is he so conflicted and filled with hate? Other articles state blacks were not accepted, but whatever. Just wanted to point out that blacks make up only 1% of Honolulu’s population today (2000 Census) and we can be certain it was even less years ago. That give’s Race Bannon’s story of meeting Hussien himself rather than some other random black teen even more credible.
