Reply to comment by contra_account in Native Hawaiian women and girls experience sex trafficking and violence at alarming rates, report says by SunCloud-777

Native Hawaiian means people of Hawaiian ancestry.

Here’s the original report: https://www.oha.org/wp-content/uploads/MMNHWG-Report_Web.pdf

This is a very disjointed report.

Trying to repatriate land back from the federal government under the guise of military service members commiting acts of sexual violence is a strange tactic. Especially considering that this report just inundates you with unrelated sexual violence facts. The only fact that they repeat is the specific operation that targeted online predation of children in Hawaii of which over 30% was active duty military. All of the other facts they provide are not in the context of military service members commiting these acts. They also misstated the percentage of Native Hawaiians in their report using the same data I linked earlier.

I agree that violence against women should be stopped, but I don't agree with using that violence and presenting it in a disingenuous manner to push a political agenda.

This really just seems like a Hoale hate fest in report form. If you have in your official report phrases like "white men riot" then I'm just going to write off that this isn't an unbiased report stating facts.
