Imagine all the problems this is going to cause, but most amazing that the current Governor, has now backtracked against it but OH NO, the congressional dems are still pursuing it.
I watched this in disbelief. Because this has consequences.
I look forward to fellow Freepers comments on this.
It has passed in the House several times, failed in the Senate, I wonder if this will be the case again.

Wouldn’t hurt my feelings if we $hitcanned the whole state. Just keep the military bases ala Cuba.
Too bad Dr. Mengele is dead. He could help set up the Racial Identification Commissions.
divided, we fall
This makes Hawaii one big reservation and everyone else a trespasser subject to negotiating new terms to stay and live and work
Imagine what the US govt is going to pay for “rent” to keep Pearl Harbor base open and operating
And if the obama feds can do this in Hawaii - why not in New York State? Make whitey buy back Manhattan again? or Alaska? Or any state that had an indigenous population...
We (TAXPAYERS), are donating $$$ for reparations to a non-U.S. entity at the time of the historical event back then?
With the Zero at the helm, we're paying every 3rd World dictator, every goofy foreign person, etc., whenever they ask for "compensation" from the bad-ol' USA....."Beam me up, Scottie"
Segregation.
This needs to be challenges in court and FAST
Identity politics and an insane level of political correctness during fifty years of democrat rule have all but ruined what used to be a melting pot.
We could just use the percentages laid out in the Nuremberg Laws, couldn't we? That worked so well the last time.
If this is ok, why not Sharia?
For lying to America, Hawaii should be removed as a state.
Oh those evil white people!
“The bloodless 1893 coup d’état consisted of a small group of mostly white (American and European) farmers and businessmen who resided on the islands and opposed a new constitution the queen had proposed. The queen ceded her throne to avoid bloodshed, and then spent years petitioning the U.S. government for redress, to no avail.”
I haven’t been able to shut my mouth since Obama became president. I am still in shock over the 1.25 billion in reparations to the black farmers and now this?

Without a blood quantum requirement this will end badly. It probably would have anyway.
I wonder how this will effect the price of macadamia nuts.
First, we need all of the original New Sweden claim. Then we need most of Eastern Pennsylvania, a lot of Western Pennsylvania, all of Western Maryland, half of West Virginia, huge swaths of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and Kansas.
Then, a number of chunks of land found within 50 miles of any Clovis site ~ which is a lot of chunks BTW.
We'll promise to move there, occupy the land, repel all invaders, and set up our own laws.
The United States should also pay us an indemnity of $1 trillion per year for the privilege of running their highways through our "chunks" and "swaths".
FOOTNOTES: (1) A human coprolite is the sole evidence for human occupancy of Oregon ~ which seems so terribly appropriate!
BTW, anyone who thinks I'm simply ridiculing the Native Hawaiian claim settlement would be wrong. If they can get chunks of Hawaii, I can get chunks of the Lower 48!
The Constitution is so old-fashioned...
After hearing about this last night on Fox New Special Report it occurred to me that this is the perfect setup for eventual “Sharia Law ruled” enclaves (states?) within the United States as they have in France (in France no one (not even the police) wants to go near these neighborhoods). Someone will probably claim that Muslims were in the new world long before the Spanish, the Dutch, the British or the French.
Its not about the problems, its about getting the land for free use! My suggestion would be to let them go and see how well they do after that; I am sure they would lose whatever is left after that.
Lets get this straight. They want to be treated like the American Indians? 100 years from now they will all be living on a reservation in Oklahoma, waiting in line at the free clinic.
