Racism in Hawaii

This video concerns a member of the Hawaiian sovereignty movement, a person known by some as the" pineapple Nazi". The pineapple Nazi got his name because he would threatened other vendors, mostly white or" Haole " who dared try to sell fruits or produce along the road in Makana. He has been selling pineapples along the road for about eight years, he started out placing stone markers to save his parking spot claiming he were a Hawaiian sovereign. Then he started adding red parking cones to save parking places for all the customers he imagined would come to buy his pineapples. Because no one would challenge him for this, because they thought he were crazy,this emboldened him until he eventually extended his parking cones to include almost 50 yards of the area. Mostly people would ignore him and tried to enjoy their day, but on this particular day, it was very crowded and there was no parking available anywhere. I thought to myself that this had gone too far, so I parked right next to the parking cones and moved them to the other side of my car. The crazy Hawaiian storms up to me in protest, how dare a Haole touch his parking cones he said. He knew me from over the years of previous encounters, and when I told them he had no right to block off the parking spots for himself, he spat in my face and called me a Haole. I called the Kihei Police Department to report an assault. Then the Kihei Police Department set one of their new police officers, they had all new police officers because the entire police department had been fired for corruption which is a problem in Hawaii. When I told the police officer that I did not want the Hawaiian arrested for assault, but wanted the parking cones removed, he told me" if you want me to enforce parking, then I'll start giving all these Haole tourist parking tickets, is that what you want?" And he started to give some innocent tourist a parking ticket instead of doing his job, because he sympathizes with the sovereignty movement, and also because the sovereignty movement is a kind of Mafia in Hawaii which a lot of police officers are a part of. This video is in no way meant to disrespect Hawaiian people or locals, any more than pointing out the activities of the Ku Klux Klan is meant to slander all white people. Maui is a wonderful place, and it has wonderful people, but the good old boy network in Hawaii needs to come to an end.

@nahikuboy123 I don't believe you, I have known many part Hawaiians who were mostly European, and they were discriminated and called the H word

Mauiportal, after 35 years you still didn't get the hint?

[mauiportal]

@15baylie And what hint might that be? That locals can be hateful racists, I have seen it first-hand, and believe me it was more than a hint

@mauiportal if u hate how locals act why are you living here?

[mauiportal]

@nahikuboy123 It only matters to you, it certainly doesn't matter to me, I don't accept your version of reality. The descendents of Asian plantation workers with a drop of Hawaiian blood masquerading as native Hawaiians and telling me what I should think concerning being born in Hawaii, while at the same time they deny my children and grandchildren who were born in Hawaii the same " respect", they claim they deserve for simply being born here while discriminating against my children.

@Rachulie That's not as amusing story compared to how locals drive. Two locals heading the opposite way on a small road will see one another, stop in the middle-of-the-road and make everyone wait while they talk story. And you wonder why the road rage :-) or how about this strange habit locals have, and seeing how long they can drive at dusk before they have to turn on their car lights, what kind of crazy crap is that
