Mahalo for support
Mahalo for support
Mahalo to all who came to the book signing at the Hawaii Plantation Museum on Saturday, May 16.
To the “kids making history,” Mrs. Cynthia Inouye’s second-grade students at Kalaniana‘ole Elementary and Intermediate School: You are awesome.
You went back in time and made the plantation era alive again.
To all of you who came in support of the students: Aloha and mahalo.

Legalize marijuana
A problem in Hawaii is that marijuana is not currently legal for all uses.
Marijuana should be legal because it has medical purpose, and people should be able to control their own state of mind.
Some of the medical purposes include that it can help people relax, like a coma, if they are in pain or need to sleep.
It also can stop seizures. It also will bring back your appetite, which is important because you have to eat even if you are sick or have cancer.
Marijuana does not affect people’s knowledge and body in a negative way.
People should have their own personal preference to stay high or low.
Medical marijuana is legal in some states, such as Colorado.
Some say marijuana is a gateway drug to harder drugs, such as “ice,” cocaine and Molly.
However, if marijuana was legal, people would be dependent on marijuana instead of harder drugs.
This is good because marijuana is safer.
Marijuana is a safer drug because it just causes people to relax and act funny. Medical marijuana is safer because you don’t need a needle and other stuff to take the other drugs.
Medical marijuana will most likely come in the form of edibles.
I recommend the state of Hawaii has a vote to legalize medical and recreational marijuana.
If more people vote that marijuana should be legal, then the law should change.
It is important that marijuana is legal because of medical purposes and to let people control their own state of mind.

Overspraying?
The state housing projects for the elderly and disabled are routinely heavily poisoned with Roundup. The result is soil erosion and large gaps from sidewalks to grassy areas, promoting many falls by elderly residents!
