The Samoans I met in CA were prone to violence and were taught to hate white people.

Many of them teach their children to goad white people and then attack in packs. I have been spit on by a 12 yr old Samoan while delivering pizza, and had my nose broken at 18 by a Samoan coworker.

No, they are not American.

Your nose was broken, sorry to hear that, I hope you returned the favor.

I dated a girl, sweet as pie, who related that when she was a child at a playground in Millbrae, CA a Samoan woman approached her, accused her of looking at her with "snake eyes", and punched her in the face apropos of nothing.

Many people have such stories.

Most Samoans are not like that, at least in Hawaii and in Samoa. There are some Samoan gangs, as there are Fijian, Tongan, Filipino ... etc gangs in Hawaii, but the majority of Polynesians are peaceful family-centered and religious.

well, Polynesians are a warrior people - Samoans, Tongans, Maoris etc. survived the long journeys and islands by developing a very warrior-based culture. You can read about their acts against their cousins the Marori in the CHatham islands (”Guns, Germs and Steel”)
