American Flags Taken Down By Hawaiian Kingdom Advocates
Big Island Video News ^ | Dec. 4th , 2014 | Big Island Video News

On Monday, a group of students and activists took down the American flag flying at main entrance of the University of Hawaii at Hilo, instead raising the Hawaiian flag that was beneath it. The action was related to what they say is the continued illegal occupation of the Hawaiian Kingdom by the United States. The American flag that was taken down was folded and handed over to university administrators. The group then went over to do the same thing at the flag pole of Hawaii Community College in Hilo. While there, they encountered security.

Queen Lilioukalani , herself the adopted hanai daughter of an unrelated to the Kamehameha’s and sister to the Hawaii Kingdom’s legislature appointed replacement to the Kamehameha dynasty , has very questionable claims to any leadership or monarchical role . The Legislature was composed in those days of Hawaiian ‘citizens’ , these including white people who were born or long settled here , not only ethnically oceanic peoples alone . There was a pre-existing Hawaii Kingdom Constitution in place at the time , composed by an actual Kamehameha and his counsels ( all Hawaiians) At the time of her so-called ‘over-throw’ and deposing , she led a legal and legitimate government also composed of mixed races and class/social status’ . Liliuokalani herself inspired the overthrow by openly suggesting that she was about to abrogate and throw out this original Hawaii constitution and return to an absolute monarchy , giving herself dictatorial monarchical powers alone . It was at this time and under those circumstances that those within the Hawaii Legislature body , of various races , including but by far not exclusively white , decided to act. The appeal for annexation took many years . It was the Spanish-American war that finally caused the U.S. to see the wisdom on consenting to the appeals for both annexation and later Territory status .
Study up people ....it’s important .

I have been there. The locals are friendlier than anyone I met in NYC the last (and I mean THE last )time I was there.

"Students"?

Really?

What are they studying? For what classes are they registered? What is their major field of study? What degree are they pursuing?

How the heck do they have time to take off all day MONDAY for these shenanigans? Why aren't they in class?

Back when I was getting my BS in Physics, I sure didn't have time for this kind of idiocy.

I made a good friend of a native Hawaiian while in the Navy. His house would be my first stop if I ever decided to go back. My niece lives there also, but it is a long, long ways away and an unlikely vacation destination. I’ve been to much better places.
