The discussion is about US OCCUPYING Hawaii. Imagine thinking that a referendum of the occupiers on whether they want to keep occupying is a valid way to decide whether people who have bee OCCUPIED agree with the occupation. It’s like if I moved into your house and put a gun to your head, and then ran a referendum to see if I should stay there.
The fact that you don’t understand how idiotic your argument is shows what an utter imbecile you are.
