Tell them try to figure out how to make another rule to keep taking away their birth rights to live off the land !! Fck u allow people to build on ag- lands!! Build a Walt Disney on Hawaiian AG lands but you want to come up with a bill to stop that.

In this case. Native hawaiian have access to private and developed land for gathering. It's just sad it's coming down to this. Condolences to the ohana.

😂😢😅 That DLNR director is an idiot 🙄 with narrow-minded perspectives on this issue. Really? What's going to take 🤔 for them to realize in order to take action 😮. And these policy makers, y'all gotta wake up and really make changes to these outdated laws we have in the books before more innocent people will get hurt and die because y'all were sleeping at the wheel 😢

Funny how get people in da comments saying Hawaiian gathering rights how would you like it get strangers on your land poaching or hunting or whatever don’t trespass.

You can make all the laws and bills you want, but until you change the people in charge, they will not enforce the law Democratic ran state .

Crime is everywhere! Okay, maybe we should customize!
