To all my kanaka maolis...stay strong! Love one another don't let this incident break you down as a negative thing..the government is guna do what they please even knowing our beliefs and culture.."save mauna kea" "save sherwoods" "save hawaiians" 🤙
Oh wow! I'm all the way in Florida and even I am crying. I'm just so tired of the injustice in this world. I'm white. It crushes me to see what the white man has done. I am so ashamed. I am VERY sorry.
AS A PACIFIC ISLANDER LIKE MYSELF, IT IS A TRUE SADDENING DAY FOR THE PEOPLE OF HAWAII. WHEN WILL THEY STOP TO DISRESPECT THE ISLAND PRIDE AND THE PEOPLE OF THE ISLANDS IN THE CLOUDS. HAWAII IS PART OF MY PACIFIC OCEAN. I STAND WITH ALL DA PEOPLE OF HAWAII. STAY STRONG, NO GIVE UP!!
Hawaiian Islands are not technically legally a part of the U.S.A.? Hawaiian Kingdom is still sovereign after 1893 U.S. military invasion? U.S.A. stole it fair and square. Hawaii under U.S.A. military occupation? Hawaiian Kingdom and U.S.A. are at war?
Cant believe the Police and Sheriff standing by while their island is taken by the people who wrongfully overthrown their government. Shameful. Each one should be kicked off the islands to mainland if they serve the US government and not their own people. The Police and Sheriff should be the first to stop the corruption, no protect the ones who corrupt. Sad they know what they are doing is wrong, but yet they still made a conscious choice to arrest the elders. Stay strong Hawaii and fight back!
Very SAD!! Shameful! When are the Hawaiians going to have the respect and the land they deserve? The mountain is their/our church! SACRED GROUND!! RESPECT! Same think for Haleakala!
It's so upsetting to see these elders being arrested but I view their actions as a learning experience for the next generations. What's important is their belief and reverence for their sacred lands.
