Trouble in Paradise

Yikes.

A Native Hawaiian group that advocates sovereignty locked the gates of a historic palace Wednesday in downtown Honolulu, saying it would carry out the business of what it considers the legitimate government of the islands.

State deputy sheriffs weren’t allowing anyone else to enter Iolani Palace grounds as unarmed security guards from the Hawaiian Kingdom Government group blocked all gates to the palace, which is adjacent to the state Capitol.

  2. People are supporting Tibet and voicing out against China and the coming Olympic. Now, this is happening in our own country.  Do people go out on the street and protest for the Hawaiian natives and against the US?
    France and all the other Europeans rise up and support the Hawaiian natives!
