I do believe Hawaii's high rate of student bullying stem from the ongoing political issue of the U.S. Federal Government; the stance-contention of an illegal government foisted on the Kanaka people. Their resentment of the Federal government spills over to descendants of the missionary and provisional families - the imported migrant worker descendants - the newly arrived malihini white or haole - the migrating Micronesians! Their resentment is from being displaced in land - employment opportunities - housing availability - language-cultural displacement...seeing the non-kanaka better off or using-taking resources away from the host kanaka culture. There is little appreciation of any advancements-developments that has taken place since the 1900's for the enforced change wrought upon their islands, putting the kanaka people at a disadvantage in their own archipelago country. Their resentment is expressed daily through the synergistic-psychological transference to the viewed outsider.
