Cut ‘em off.
Let ‘em see how well they fair without tourism dollars.

[Joe Boucher]

How ya going to stop the Japs from vacationing there too?

[BenLurkin]

“Go back to the mainland” and “Take your white ass off our beaches,”

How cute!

A little progressive child speaking her mind.

She may be President someday.

[nickcarraway]

What racism? They only said stuff about white people.

[MrB]

When the natives don’t have white people to pick on,
the “japs” will be next, and they can choose to
take it or join the boycott.

From observation, “japs” are pretty racist, as well.

[Lurker]

Too bad Hawaii is one of those states that absolutely forbids concealed carry by the proles. If a few of these racist idiots got their chest cavities ventilated this crap would stop right quick.

[Nachum]

"this island is the most racist place I have ever been in my life."

Guess he never visited the south side of Chicago.

"It's an incredibly giving and warm and generous place, but you have to earn it," he says.

"You white people need to know your place," he says.

[I Buried My Guns]

Violence against whites in Hawaii has a long and storied past. My mother lived there as a youth and reported that it existed even way back then. Reading the subtext of this article, one is led to think that ethnic violence against whites is almost TO BE EXPECTED, as it is the norm.

I am going there in a month (against my will, BTW) and wonder if I can buy a large, cheap knife to wield at would-be attackers, then discard it before getting on the plane to go home.

It's bad news for Hawaii. Most of their business is tourism.

We got some sarcastic comments while in Maui, no threats or anything. Only once on the Road to Hanna while taking videos of a waterfall.

[freespirited]

Wow. Sounds like there’s always a price for nice weather.

[TChris]

"...It's an incredibly giving and warm and generous place, but you have to earn it," he says.

Umm... You need to look up the definitions of the words "generous" and "giving", buddy.

Earning something means it was NOT given.

[Let's Roll]

Great ... the Chinese will own them root, tree and branch before the ink is dry on their secessionist papers.

Idiots.

[correctthought]

I always find that reasoning kinda funny and how its indulged funny as well.

No one gives a rip that Kamehameha conquered the rest of the islands; what about the those chieftains who lost their sovereignty.

[OB1kNOb]

My co-worker friend who grew up as a military brat in Hawaii confirmed this all for me in a conversation several months ago. She said there are certain beaches that Haoles dare not visit if they value their life.

It is OK to commit hate crimes against whitey - and they better not fight back!

[Hacklehead]

Isn’t multiculturalism wonderful. It hasn’t made the minorities feel better about themselves, just more angry at whites.

BTW, Since when does the Southern Poverty Law Center care about White people?

[Non-Sequitur]

Which is why when I have a hankering to visit the tropics I head for the Bahamas or BVI. Places where the people are actually glad you come and spend your money there. Plus, they speak English.
