    ALOHA Kakou, e Hawaii,
    After the passage of Public Law 103-150 offering the opportunity of independence to Hawaii is taking a Step Backwards. After the passage of Public Law 103-150 United States should pull down their flags in Hawaii. With draw its military to it military bases in Hawaii. Then allow Hawaiians the time needed to decide the issue of self-determinsation.
    In Public Law 103-150 United States has admitted to its crimes against Queen Liliuokalani and her subjects of her Kingdom nation. All of her subjects, not only her subjects who were of Hawaiian ancestry.
    Long Live The Hawaiian Kingdom, o Pomaikaiokalani, Hawaiian Kingdom National Royalist 1993
