On the 116th anniversary of the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom, a group of native Hawaiians and residents gather in Hilo to protest the latest developments in the ceded lands issue.
A crowd lined Kanoelehua Avenua in front of the Waiakea Center, waving signs and flags. Many held signs lambasting Governor Linda Lingle, and her administration's efforts to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court over a Hawaii Supreme Court ruling that bars the state sale of ceded lands.

I've noticed this a lot lately, where the Feds trample all over the states law. Just a for-instance: DEA raids medical marijuana shops in California. It just looks as if the states have no rights under federal jurisdiction. This is the prime ingredient for a civil war, the Fed better be careful, and lighten up.
