Why don't legal minds focus on annexation?
A good letter to today's Star-Bulletin. Other
letters on the same page about Kamehameha Schools
admissions.
Lawyers John Goemans and Eric Grant are
reaching far back into American history and citing the Civil Rights Act of 1866
to justify their lawsuit against Kamehameha Schools
.
Perhaps the public good would be
better served if their zeal were applied to researching the legality of Hawaii's
annexation to the United States in 1898 and its removal from the United Nations'
list of territories to be de-colonized after World War II.
