Holy shit, turn on CNN! Hawai'i just seceded from USA!
 

E ho`omanawanui kâua!

Should be a quick little sail from Pearl Harbor to where ever the locals keep the canoes. :2 cents:

Hele a hiamoe.

Whaaaaaa?
Is this for real?
Can't see any info on their site yet.

Bullshit

:)

time for a tiki party

im hawaiian

not only will that never happen, but they wouldn't like it if it did. What the fuck would Hawaii do without US gov money & military..... they'd be fuckin' screwed is what. Some other country would come in here and own this motherfucker in the same week. And what would the Hawaiians fend them off with? Coconuts and surf wax?
Not to mention that 90% of everything we have here comes in on a ship... constantly. I've seen what happens when the California dock workers go on strike. It's a matter of days before there is nothing left, and it takes months to catch back up after they get going again.

Hawaii would collapse virtually instantaneously on many levels if the US gave it back.

My buddy and his wife are going to be bummed to have to go thru customs on their way back.

And how the heck are we going to get Hawiian Punch?

Hope the waves don't secede too...

:1orglaugh lol can I join them

Yep, you are right. It will never happen !

I movin to hawaii right away !

You already have the shirts for it :winkwink:

Amen. And there would be NO fucken bread or milk left! It's to the point now where people have to pawn their car titles just to make a trip to the grocery store. How do they really think they'd live without us shipping staples in on a regular basis? With the kind of mark-up they're putting on dairy and wheat products, Hawaii should be the richest nation in the Pacific. :2 cents:

This thread reminded me why I put you on my ignore list :1orglaugh

Too bad I can still see your threads

The dumbass native Hawaiians want sovereignty to kick out all foreigners and magically return Hawaii to the good old days when many were starving and if you even looked at the King you would be killed.

The "smart" native Hawaiians want sovereignty as they think it will somehow give them a bigger piece of the tourist dollar and more government subsidies like the Indian casino's have.

Either way, it ain't gonna happen. The strong conquer the weak. Historical fact. Live with it .

Holy shit turn on CNN turns out your a moron...:Graucho

Numerical superiority equals the right to do as you please as long as you can get away with it?

Is that code for strip searched?

:winkwink:

give me one good reason why Hawaii should be returned to a sovereign kingdom, and one solid statement on how that would be successfully accomplished.

you can't.

Cow's milk is a necessity for calves not humans. :2 cents:

Historically ANY type of superiority gives you that right from the individual to the country. If you don't have that, you WON'T get away with it for very long if at all. :winkwink:

If someone or something is bigger ,stronger, has more people than you etc you may still beat them some of the time.

Numerical superiority alone means nothing a lot of the time. The population of the Hawaiian Islands was greater than the number of dudes on Captain Cook's ships, yet they let them take over. Same with communism etc etc.

Mexico can invade El Salvador tomorrow and take over and unless the US or someone else says that ain't right and goes and kicks their ass for doing it, they have gotten away with it.

You have me on your ignore list because I have different opinions than you and your pre-school mentality can't handle it. It is people like you, people whose mental stability is put at threat by the mere mention of diversity of thought and opinion, that allows governments to turn oppressive. In my opinion, you are a disease to intellectual liberty and mankind at large. And you are not entering my ignore list any more than the rest of the bunch, I am going to read your posts wherever they cross my path because I do not have insecurities about myself or my positions on things.

Key west is called the Conch Republic because they seceded from the US in the 80's


They blocked off US1 and would not let anyone in unless they lived on the island. They faxed papers to DC declaring war on the US. 30 minutes later they faxed papers giving up and stated that they were laying down their arms.
And asked for a billion in foreign aid.


Which they got.

I know that what you are saying is true, nature is all about the the survival of the fittest and strongest. But I disagree that it is right of us to "unfairly" enforce our strength unless we agree to dismiss civility and even civilization itself in all other aspects of life. As humans living in society, we have collectively agreed to an code of honour and justice that we know is an artificial concept but that most agree is what we and others need in order to lead a better quality of life.

I believe in separatism, and I loathe alien control which is pretty much what Hawai'ians are living under. Why shouldn't this seperate people, race, culture, be allowed to govern itself completely? Why should Americans decide for them when they have managed for so long without you?

The argument that the alien control is justifiable on account of Hawai'i's vulnerability to other foreign peoples is not a good one. You don't need to control them and decide for them in order to protect them. You can leave them to theirs, and let it be known through behaviour or words that those who trespass on their sovereign right would trespass on your own principles and friendship and thus gain you as an enemy with it. This is the way it works in Europe. A strong country could certainly with ease take over some small European country, but most of Europe and even the world would fight you unless the strong country had a good reason to do as it did.

The thing is, who decides what is fair or not? It is an arbitrary decision made by a judge or a Government often in error and not as clearcut as many think.

Should the guy who robs and kills someone to keep his family alive be viewed in the same light as a drunk driver that kills someone? They often are.

Who determines that it was "worth it" to kill x number of Iraqis to give the country a better life?

These decisions are made by the "strongest" authority of the moment. If not they wouldn't be carried out.

what up stranger.

In the case of Hawai'i, I think the decision has already been universally made. Europeans used to have a lot of control over many different peoples, races, and cultures, but has long since agreed that this is not a good thing and ended the practice. America has agreed with most if not all of these decisions. Hawai'i is still under colonism because the Hawai'ians are too weak or too gentle spirits to put up any kind of fight or display to the world that they will fight for their independence to the death if need be. And besides, noone wants to object to America unless they really have to, you are far too mentally unstable to handle criticism without immediately retaliating with adverse politics, embargoes, and war.

and what makes you think they WANT to be....

Have *you* or your government asked them if they DON'T want to be?

whats funny is the ass tards going "omg really!?"

I thought Hawaii was Japan #2 :Graucho I think they can survive with just all the tourist

I hate it when people make up bullshit headlines for a thread. Instead of starting a conversation like "why doesn't Hawaii secede", they have to come up with bullshit like this. :321GFY

you are ignorant.

And from the replies that you have come up with, I think we can say that you are just plain stupid.
