Instead of using the locals for positive intent, we were penal coded from day one.  First it was the first sin stuff under Protestant Ethics.  Then, we became the Woman Suffrage injunction.  Next, we became the medical human experiment.  In the modern times, we were called the 'Purple League' and was let out for sports playing, information gotten from John Pau a victim himself.  How does this relate to Kollin Elderts? Why did Christopher Deedy gun down a youth at a McDonalds in Waikiki.  As Kollin Elderts was about to order a Happy Meal, and Federal Security Agent fatally shot Elderts over a local racist joke.  Christopher Deedy, pulled his gun on an unarmed youth, why was he here in Hawaii in the first place? To guard Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State one that wrote the book "It Takes a Village and Other Lessons Children Teach".  Good grief!  Hawaii is a culture that raises everyone's children, make no bones (ancestor) about that.  We, thrive on Haloa and the global risk of future generations.  Sadly, we know nothing else but to care for all children in our every being, which is why this incident is incomprehensible to me! I have that book somewhere among the shelves of books that speaks to children in every imaginable way from fiction to nonfiction.  Five minutes ago, I thumbed through "The Seduction of Hillary Rodham" by David Brock.  Makeover, as in target shooting...so sing me a song, "Home on the Range" Christopher Deedy!  People-- Hillary was the chairman of the board of the Children's Defense Fund!  She even "she was breast-feeding her at the first board meeting after she was born," noted by Cecilia Esquer on page 97.   I can agree with Hillary, Secretary of State on Saul Alinsky because in reading his means to an end, lose it in a tail spin, but this is no dog and pony act, Kollin Elderts is gone--dead!

American style of 'gang injunction' in Kailua-Hawaii this can't be happening.  This is all a bad dream, because I reside in Waianae and a '66 grad of Kailua High School.    What's even hell on wheels in my senior years, I am Joseph Kahahawai's 2nd cousin and I've lived through his space in time throughout my life.  It never left Kailua!  I even participated in the Nanakuli Rape case at the Ala Moana Hotel conferencing for community human and understanding!  Oh God, 

People, I had to go to Jeff Rasmussen at Taco's and More a restaurant in Waianae and say... can I please buy your CD, because I am in so much pain.  The song "A Song for my Brother" can bring peace in my isolated moments.  My beautiful brother past at the age of 48 and Lanikai boat launch is where, I go to cry with the wind in my face --my tears can flow in private.  A child of the sixties, I really don't get the 80s and their craziest US 'gang injunction.  The Micronesian's really got it right--sister caring for their brothers even if it brings harm to her--brothers are gifts of gods!

Our ancestors’ culture norms should rein over the occupiers and their political endeavors.  We are the leaders of our aina, we make love have babies and those na keiki are our own!

What the hell is wrong with 'Gang Injunction' says the ACLU?

"There are several problems with gang injunctions.  First, they are not the most effective way to deal with gang violence, because they don’t address the problem at its root.  Second, research shows that they are more motivated by politics than solving community problems.  Third, gang injunctions give the police too much discretion to harass and target young men of color, even those who aren’t gang members.  Fourth, they impose permanent probation-like restrictions on many people who never had a day in court, without providing a clear way out.  Some injunctions include restrictive curfews that lack necessary exceptions for people to conduct their work and family lives.  Finally, the terms of many gang injunctions infringe the rights of individuals to associate freely, and unnecessarily restrict participation in family events and other positive and legal activities without risk of arrest.  There are better solutions to crime in our communities, such as community policing and positive opportunities like job and education programs."

Most times now a days, I wonder about that first battle that was our civil war, and how it devastated Koolaupoko.  I had beautiful women in my life that were direct products of that battle for they knew all the intricacies--stories that were handed down.  In their time, I would join them (reluctantly) and shiver in the cold water in the Queens actual bathhouse and I would listen to their 'uwe' in Hawaiian.  But, my real aunties said, "enough"! Enough suffering for we are not the product of white 'Women Suffrage'  "we are the products of our ancestor's and we live by their rule!"  This is my understanding of the Battle of Nuuanu--a gang injunction!
