No, Hawaii is NOT functioning fine. They are very racist against whites and have special privileges over whites and other ethnic groups. They are also looking to split from the Union.

My daughter lives in Hawaii, and she's half white. Will they send her halfway back to the mainland? I sure hope not...

Absolutely serious.

Hawaii is the most racially integrated State in America - and always has been. Whites are even the largest minority group - that title goes to Asians.

You've never been to Hawaii have you?

It's one things to "hang out" in the resort areas, and cruise around town, it's a totally different scenario when you're trying to live there. Do a Google search on a movement for Hawaii to split from the US, that's what a big group of them want.

Just because a group wants something doesn't necessarily mean that the state as a whole wants it.

More BS.
Does it ever end?
Hawaii is not going anywhere anytime soon. I've spent my fair share of time in Hawaii (and other Pacific Islands for that matter) and I'm fully aware of the Hawaiian Independence movement. It'll never happen. There is some anti-white sentiment among SOME Hawaiians but pureblood native Hawaiians make up a TINY fraction of the population (5% or so). The vast majority of the resentment on Hawaii is not necessarily directed against one particular race, but rather against the hoards of mainlanders who have come there fairly recently and driven up the housing prices so that local folks (ALL local folks of ALL races - not just Hawaiians) are unable to afford to buy a home there - and that same thing has happened here in Seattle (where low and behold) some folks dislike Californians for moving here and driving up home prices.

So a fringe group is suddenly representative of the entire population? And of course it's tough to actually live in Hawaii! Honolulu makes LA look affordable!

You'll find things are actually far worse than what I've posted. You can't just "hope" everything will be fine like the folks who ran the Titanic.

You're looking at the world through your reality of what human behavior should be. You believe that because something makes sense to you and because you see it on TV, that's how every one else does too.

The marches happened. Gangs are very real. PAC's are very real - they're out to advance the cause of their ethnic group. The school curriculum is very real. The diversity workshops most companies have to go through are very real. The ethnic "no go zones" in the big cities are very real.
I get around to plenty of different areas, and in fact just spent the past weekend in Los Angeles. Don't you think it is a bit presumptuous to assume that those who disagree with you get their information from TV, while you go out and live life?

Again, I think you take specific events and expand them beyond their true participation and influence. I happen to think many will want to achieve, and make contributions to the future greatness of the USA. Sure, problems are always part of change, but overcoming the obstacles leads to further progress.

If this is true, then why do people equate whites with the ideas of the KKK which is a very small group? Academia and diversity consultants forcefeed Americans the idea that whites should be groveling in guilt. And yet, only 1% of the US population even owned slaves.
