A Rally Demanding that Governor Lingle RESPECT NATIVE HAWAIIAN RIGHTS and WITHDRAW the Unnecessary Appeal of the Ceded Lands Case to the U.S. Supreme Court
WHAT: In Commemoration of the 15th Anniversary of the 1993 Apology Resolution - Native Hawaiians Rally and Call on Lingle to Withdraw the Appeal to U.S. Supreme Court.
WHEN: Monday, November 24th at 11:30 AM
WHERE: State Capitol Rotunda
WHO: You, your 'ohana, and friends in RED shirts.
WHY:
Inform the public of the magnitude of this case and the THREAT IT POSES TO NATIVE HAWAIIAN JUSTICE/RIGHTS.
This could prove to be the MOST DAMAGING case on Hawaiian Rights EVER. An adverse ruling could cripple reconciliation efforts, severely diminish Native Hawaiian rights, and lay the foundation for dismantling Native Hawaiian programs.
This is a NON-DIVISIVE issue - a U.S. Supreme Court decision has negative implications for our entire community and EVERY Hawaiian.
The U.S. Supreme Court could misinterpret and reduce the significance of the Apology Resolution, which recognizes the illegality of the overthrow and supports Native Hawaiian rights.
The U.S. Supreme Court has the potential to adversely impact the way the people of Hawai'i deal with issues on a local level. Unlike the State Supreme Court, the U.S. Supreme Court does not know Hawai'i's history and will not be affected by the resolution of local issues.
Governor Lingle's action is wholly inconsistent with her previous support of Native Hawaiians. She must be urged to WITHDRAW this appeal IMMEDIATELY!

@MolokaiAlika From this past Thurs. till Monday, I hung out w/ cuzzin Ike. His father is Larry J., son of Rose R., daughter of John R., son of Harriet T., daughter of Luukia HOLAU! And how do you descend from her?

@Hawnguy100 omg, that made me laugh. Are you serious? Donkey's eyes lit up when he talks about money? LMAO That's toooo funny! But scary too.

@Hawnguy100 yes, this is why they file lawsuits b/c as I said, power has shifted AWAY from na Haole...and that doesn't sit well with them. This is when they say that this is part of the US, everyone has equal right, but EQUAL means HAOLE has dibs into everything. Never mind all the Asians & Micronesians, etc.

@Hawnguy100 so desperate he LIED about the Holau. So desperate he tried to fib his way through by writing Native Hawaiian but ridicule kanaka maoli by quantifying us, but he uses Native Hawaiian? Get real. The only problem these people have with me is that I see right through their game. I've spend how many decades working among Haoles in the Haole world? Of course I know how they play.

@Hawnguy100 But the fact is, I've been at this so much longer than they have. Simply put, they have no grounds & they regurgitate the same nonesense, this is why you see Alex copying & pasting about being Native Hawaiian, chiefly ancestry, Kalakaua, Liliuokalani, Kawananakoa-pretenders, etc.

@Hawnguy100 This is why these haoles cry out racism. POWER is shifted AWAY from them. That POWER comes in the guise of the so called ceded lands, which they feel they're entitled to. But they DO have issues w/ Micronesians or any other Asians having control of it & would like it for themselves, which they claim "equality for all." But it's NOT for all. This happened in 1887, it STILL continues today. This is why they have to use every other angle thinking it would confuse people.

@MolokaiAlika and you mention contender yet what was Hawnguy doing? The same exact shit you were doing by actually PROVING to you that (unlike yourself) MANY of us are descendants of alii. But that doesn't make YOU a contender nor better than anyone else. Instead you're like the rest of us. Instead you lied saying you have native hawaiian ancestry & going back to the Holau line. wtf is that? You don't hear me bragging about my chiefly lines for a good reason. Why?

@MolokaiAlika You say to Hawnguy that they're a contender to the Throne PROVIDED they have more than 50% kanaka blood which was never a requirement according to the Constitution which you REFUSE to address. Let's not forget the bill that Kalakaua passed by getting the most skilled genealogist to list all the current descendants who would be considered "alii", not 50% Kanaka Maoli as a qualification you idiot. Not once have you defended you being kanaka b/c i know you're not!

@MolokaiAlika Now you're really getting stupid Alex. There is no CONTENDER. Second, you're quantifying in order to MINIMIZE us. You want to give all this support for Emma but you don't quantify her. So what's your deal really? You have issues b/c you look at other "half breeds" differently b/c in your mind, they're different, yet you pretend to be one. Give me a fucking break.

@MolokaiAlika my mistake, Liliuokalani DOMINIS. That's not how she signed all the bills, etc. And you still aren't answering my earlier response of how you claim this ROH as "legit" or making it appear to be so b/c the queen's so called abdication yet why didn't the US sign a treaty of annexation w/ the ROH? They didn't. That's b/c that was contested & that is written in both the SF & NY Times paper. Go read them. It was contested for obvious reasons, aside fr the US just being racists.
