IRS Commissioner’s Coverup: FRAUD
H
May Day 2005
o‘oulu me ke Aloha -- “Growing up with love” was the theme of the
Kaunakakai School May Day Program on Friday, April 29th. I Principal
Janice Espiritu gave lei of thanks to May Day program chair Cindy Brito,
and coordinators Valerie Dudoit-Enos, Teri
Neuhart and Kupuna Kauila Reyes. Lei
were presented by student Abemaurice
Dudoit. Michael Kikukawa, Tyra Lopez
and Edwin Mendija ably shared narration
and announcing duties for the program of
songs and dances by the students from
preschool through sixth grade.
King Kiley Kekoa Johnston and Queen
Sharali Anelalani Dudoit-Enos were ushered in by the Royal Court representing the
islands with traditional color outfits,
designed this year by Val Dudoit-Enos.
As in years past, students, teachers and
families put forth their best for this cultural
event.
t Kualapu‘u School, the May Day Program on April 29th was truly
A
Hawaiian with the theme, “Huli I Ka Maoli” or “To Turn Back or Search for
the True Hawaiian.” King Jacoby-Jaymes Purdy-Kaai and Queen Kaira
Kaulia-Makaiwi and their court were attentive throughout stellar performances by each
grade including a stirring “Kawika” by Kumu Poepoe and Santiago’s students in pap
‘ekahi, ‘elua, ‘ekolu and ‘eha and grade 4 students’ “E Ku‘e/ Kaulana Na Pua.”
report by George Peabody for MAN
Resistance to Tyrants is Obedience to God"-Thomas Jefferson
"In a recent conversation with an official at the Internal Revenue Service, I was
amazed when he told me that, "If the taxpayers of this country discover that the IRS
operates on 90% bluff, the entire system will collapse." -- Sen. Henry Bellmon, 1969.
IRS FRAUD: “Internal Revenue Service, April 4, 1985, Department of Treasury
To All District Directors
On March 5, 1985, a charge of tax evasion was filed in U.S. DISTRICT Court in
Indianapolis, Ind. by U.S. Atty. Geo. Duncan. The charges were dismissed! The defense
atty., Lowell Becraft of Huntsville Alabama presented irrefutable evidence that the 16th
Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was never properly ratified. This amendment
which established the “income tax”, was signed into law despite serious defects. In reality only two States ratified the amendment and ratification required 36 States to be valid.
The effect of this is such that every tax paid into the Treasury since 1913, is due ad
refundable to every citizen and business.
The official position of the service is, as it has always been to old aid and assist the
citizens of the United States. We will not publish or advertise this finding as a total
immediate refund would cause a serious drain on the resources of the Treasury. For
those citizens who become aware of this finding and apply for a total refund, expedite
their refund documents as quickly and as quietly as possible. A simple 1040X form will
suffice until a new form is designed and printed. Advise each of your managers that they
are not o discuss this situation with anyone. There will be no written communications
and you are to destroy this memorandum.
The Secretary of Treasury assures me that there will be no reduction in the workforce as this refunding activity will take a minimum of 5 years to complete. Further
directions will be forwarded as the need arises.
(signed) Roscoe L. Egger, Jr. Commissioner of Internal Revenue”
Ok, we know we are being defrauded by the IRS! The message of resistance that
is being sent by We The Sovereign People to the federal and state governments – the
People will not tolerate a tax system that violates the fundamental Rights of the People
nor a government that refuses to answer in good faith the People’s Petitions for Redress
of those Grievances. Show us the law, or we stop paying taxes, immediately.
The Internal Revenue Code is a massive fiscal fraud upon the American People.
The IRS has created an elaborate system which causes millions of people to whom the
tax laws do not otherwise apply to inadvertently declare themselves to be among the
persons to whom those laws do apply. Which One Are You?
Find Out by reading this book: “Cracking the Code”
The Internal Revenue Code consists of 3,413,780 or so words (not counting regulations) . The laws behind the code and the taxes that they impose technically comply
with the Constitution, just as all the judges have said over the years.
But the same analysis also reveals that, as written, these laws do NOT apply to most
of the income of most private citizens.
Readers of Cracking the Code will learn that specific Constitutional limitations on
the federal government’s power to tax do shape related law, and have generated a coherent Supreme Court doctrine which clearly and soundly answers the question of what is
taxable "income”. Both the statutes and the doctrine acknowledge the exemption of the
vast majority of private-sector income/wages from that IRS taxing power’s reach.
However, you will also learn about a complex combination of craft, routine bureaucratic incoherence, and casual-- and not-so-casual-- corruption by virtue of which many
people are led to inadvertently allow the legal transformation of their untaxable earnings into taxable "income”. Such people are tricked into voluntarily “paying taxes”.
Thanks to the elaborate and deceptive tax scheme rooted in today’s Internal
Revenue Code, it capitalizes on widespread public ignorance of general legal doctrine
and rules of statutory construction, and it relies upon the concealment of the underlying
actual-law-in-force behind the misleading words of the code.
Fundamental to the scheme is designing that code to be so profoundly confusing
as to force the vast majority of those against whom it’s directed to abandon even a pretense of personal comprehension. These targets are thus compelled to surrender
their decision-making to the IRS bureaucracy or a tax professional both of whom
will assure you that of course your income is taxed under the law, but somehow, they
never manage to demonstrate exactly where the IRS law say it is so.
‘Cracking the Code’ is going to unravel the tangle of deceit and confusion, and
make clear that not only is it not in there anywhere, what is in there is just the opposite.
Military Interrogation by Torture Approved
Abu Ghraib Abuse and Torture Interrogation Techniques were approved by
Lieutenant General Sanchez, including intimidation by Dogs, Stress Positions, Sensory
Deprivation, according to a memo dated Sept. 14, 2003, and signed by Lieutenant
General Ricardo A. Sanchez authorizing 29 interrogation techniques, including 12
which far exceeded limits established by the Army's own Field Manual.
The American Civil Liberties Union an investigation into possible perjury by Lt.
Gen. Ricardo Sanchez, because this evidence flatly contradicts sworn testimony given
by Sanchez to the Senate Armed Services Committee, in which he denied authorizing
highly coercive interrogation methods.
The memorandum at issue was initially withheld from public release by the
Defense Department under “national security grounds”. However, the ACLU obtained
a physical copy of the memorandum, under an ongoing Freedom of Information Act
lawsuit, according to Christopher E. Anders, an ACLU Legislative Counsel.

It takes Peace to
Stop Military Pollution
As children, we were taught that the military protected us in times of war. We
learned about soldiers being killed and wounded by 'the enemy', and how people died if
they got shot or if a bomb landed on them. Sometimes innocent people got killed during
a war, but the fact that most victims were civilians was carefully hidden from us by our
elders. They knew that children are smart enough to understand that there is a big moral
difference between killing other soldiers and killing ordinary people. That a significant
number of deaths were caused not by a weapon's impact, but by its toxicity and by military pollution, was never mentioned.
We did not learn that military toxins know no boundaries, that they don't just kill the
enemy, they kill our military personnel and people living near military bases, that they
pollute the water, land and air. We were not taught and still aren't told today that military
toxins go anywhere and kill everything, that they are in fact the [ cont’d page 7 ]

“Teen Screen”: Feds Promote Drugs
The truth is, with full support from Pres. Bush, the pharmaceutical industry is
using TeenScreen as a vehicle to push dangerous drugs on children who in the eyes of
many experts are already being overmedicated.
Despite that the fact that SSRI antidepressants are banned for use with children in
the UK and despite the FDA "black box" warning label now required on all SSRIs that
the drugs increase suicidal thinking and behavior in kids, the NFC not only recommends
that the same drugs be prescribed to children, it promotes the very schemes that will
increase the number of kids on these drugs in schools and other public institutions.
According to a report by the Florida Statewide Advocacy Council, posted on Ken
Kramer's website, an investigation in Florida found that of 1,180 kids in foster care, 652
were on one or more psychotropic drugs.
In Texas, Dr John Breeding, an Austin psychologist, has seen cases where some
foster children were placed on as many as 17 drugs and says drugs are being used as
chemical restraints in Texas. He wants all SSRIs and neuroleptic drugs banned from use
on children "The SSRIs are extremely harmful and addictive; and can cause or exacerbate suicidal or homicidal tendencies; withdrawal is painful and dangerous."
Dr Ann Blake Tracy is the Director of the International Coalition for Drug
Awareness, holds a doctorate in biological psychology, and is a specialist in the adverse
reactions to SSRI medications. Tracy claims the whole hypothesis of SSRIs is "backwards." She says the drugs increase serotonin while decreasing the metabolism of serotonin, especially in the 7 to 10% of the population that studies have shown don't have
the proper enzyme to metabolize SSRIs in the first plac.
Dr Tracy can recite hundreds of horror stories involving violence by people taking
the same drugs that TeenScreen is marketing to more children.
She told the Morning News about, "the professor on Prozac who bit her mother to
death; the Stanford graduate on Paxil who stabbed herself in the kitchen while her parents slept; the mother who bludgeoned her son and then drank a can of Drano; and the
12-year-old girl who strangled herself with a bungee cord she attached to a plant hanger on the wall."
"Most of these drugs are not approved for children, but it doesn't stop doctors from
prescribing them," Tracy points out.
Instead of pushing drugs in their Teen Screen federal program, the feds should realize that teens will respond positively to freedom and truth.
James Madison, the primary author of the Constitution for the United States, made
it clear :"We have staked the whole future of all our political constitutions upon the
capacity of each of ourselves to govern ourselves according to the moral principles of
the Ten Commandments."
We are each Sovereign; government is the servant. Government shall not push
drugs or promote drug use in any federal program for Teens or anyone else.

AARP now meets on 1st Thursday
Lions Roar:Vision Screening
Gladys Brown holding a Shape UP Hawaii t-shirt (and Frances Feeter) offered AARP
information to Senior Fair attendees. New Kaunakakai Post Master Bo Mahoe, Mary
Kuamoo, who won a plant in the drawing, and Lani Kula who led a Line Dance might
think about joining the Shape Up Hawaii event on May 19th.
Molokai AARP monthly meetings will now be held the first THURSDAY of
each month at Home Pumehana’s Conferece Room at 9:30 a.m. Everyone is welcome to attend the meetings. Local membership dues are $5 per year, and your AARP

On May 19th Jackie McCarter of the State AARP office will be at Home Pumehana
from 9 a.m. to noon to lead a workshop on Shape Up Hawaii. Everyone 60 and over
attending will receive a pedometer to use with the program.
On Wednesday, April 20, the Molokai Lions Club performed a vision screening of
the entire student body at Maunaloa Elementary School. This is the second school to
request a vision screening for all their students. Lion Lucy Davis, school health aide and
Kahana Pele DeKneef, Parent Community Network Center coordinator obtained permission forms and set up the area used for testing. The children came in orderly, friendly and extremely responsive to the Lions. What a joy to report that all tested very well
with no apparent sight problems. 54 out of 57 students were tested. A school permission
slip is necessary.
Special thanks to Lion Lucy and Kahana for their assistance, to principlal Joe
Yamamoto, and to the team of Lions; Ron Bauman, Ed and Shirley Fulkerson, Joe
Pentax and Bill and Jackie Cushman. We invite the 2 remaining elementary schools to
contact Lion Jackie Cushman (553-5006) to request this service. Poor eye sight can be
fixed! No child should have to spend a day at school unable to see properly.... think of
the consequences!
Mahalo to all the Lions who turned out for the Uncle Mutt Run/Field day. The
Molokai Lions Club sponsored a water station for the walk/run. Some Lions participated in the event as well as manned the station. Others helped in the field events. Big
thanks to Lions Jonnette and Gene Spencer, Jim and Bonnie Sonnikson, Richard
Rodriquez, George Barbour, Joe Pentax and his CIS Christy, and Bob Dreyer and his
CIS Betty. The Molokai Lions Club is committed to serving the community...... The
membership works hard to sponsor their own activities but they also enjoy participating in other island events when called upon. On April 29, the Molokai Lions Club will
offer vision screening for the seniors. ---- report by Lion Ron Bauman

Five of the current Senior Companions serving the Molokai community are Frances
Hanaoka,Pearly Eleccion, Hannah Tavares, Fely Siangco, Momi Kong. At the Senior
Fair last Friday, they invited attendees to “join us” as they provide companionship,
and assistance getting to appointments, shopping for seniors who live alone.
3rd Annual Senior Fair
It was Lei Day at four schools, many kupuna attended the morning Lei Day festivities and some were able to also attend the 3rd annual Senior Fair held from 9am12:30pm at the Home Pumehana Senior Center. Fifty agencies and businesses participated, offering information about services for the Seniors in our community. Some
agencies sent representatives from Oahu and Maui, including Social Security, MEO,
Hale Mahaolu, the Red Cross, Foster Grandparents, and others came from the plethora
of services right here on island.
There was health screening by the friendly Molokai Community Health Center
staff , blood pressure monitoring by Molokai General Hospital along with a sample and
recipe for diabetic muffins. MGH physical therapist Mary Anne Hill offered free information about diabetic foot care and displayed some exercise tools. The Lions Club
brought eye sight screening and a fresh orange at their vision screening booth. Linda
Kauhane from the Molokai Occupational Center, Claud Sutcliffe from Mediation
Center, Sgt. Keith Kawano from the police department, Kanani’s Cooking, Patience
Gaia from the County Solid Waste Management and Bo Mahoe from the US Post Office
offered information for all ages. To remind us of victims of abuse, Hale Ho‘omalu (the
women’s shelter) and Molokai Alternatives to Violence gave away seeds for Forget-MeNot flowers. Freebies (brochures, personalized information, pens, pencils, magnets,
fans, fly swatters, healthy snacks) along with the displays and helpful staff was informative. If you took brochures and information, there was lots to read and digest to plan
for medicare prescription benefits, health care, fifty booths, a variety of information,
too much to list, but the Filipino plate lunch was generous and ono looking -- if you
didn’t already have lunch planned from the Kaunoa Senior Services/RSVP with Renee

EARTH DAY contd’ Military Pollution
from page 4.....quintessential universal soldier.
The U.S. Department of Defense is the largest polluter in the world, producing
more hazardous waste than the five largest U.S. chemical companies combined. (1) The
types of hazardous wastes used by the military include pesticides and defoliants like
Agent Orange. It includes solvents, petroleum, perchlorate (a component of rocket fuel)
lead and mercury. And most ominously, depleted uranium.
The health problems that have been documented as being attributable to these various toxins in military use include miscarriages, low birth weight, birth defects, kidney
disease and cancer.
It is the military's use of Depleted Uranium that should cause the most alarm. Not
only is the evidence of irreparable harm becoming undeniable, it is also quite clear that
the U.S. government has been aware of the lethality of these weapons for quite some
time. Despite denials of health risks, a 1950 Army pamphlet states, "Although there is
negligible danger from uranium and plutonium outside the body, it is possible for dangerous amounts of these elements to enter the body through the lungs, the digestive system, or breaks in the skin."
An FAA Advisory Circular written in 1984 stated, "if particles are inhaled or
ingested, they can be chemically toxic and cause a significant and long-lasting irradiation of internal tissue." In 1990, U.S. Army Armaments, Munitions and Chemical
Command (AMCCOM) reported that depleted uranium is a "low level alpha radiation
emitter, which is linked to cancer when exposures are internal." AMCCOM's radiological task group also pointed out that the "long term effects of low doses of DU have been
implicated in cancerâ?œthere is no dose so low that the probability of effect is zero."
The risk to our own military personnel was spelled out in a 1993 letter from the U.S.
Army Surgeon General stating that, "When soldiers inhale or ingest DU dust, they incur
a potential increase in cancer risk." And in 1995, a U.S. Army U.S. Army Environmental
Policy Institute report to Congress says that depleted uranium has the potential to generate "significant medical consequences".
The impact of depleted uranium on Gulf War veterans is so staggering that it is
incomprehensible that the U.S. government persists in denying the damage done. The
numbers tell the obvious story. During the three-week war in 1990-91, 467 U.S. personnel were reported injured. Since then, more than 11,000 Gulf War veterans have died
and more than 600,000 are on permanent disability due to their exposure to depleted
uranium, or what we euphemistically call Gulf War Syndrome.
But U.S. military personnel are of course not the only victims of depleted uranium.
Many returning soldiers brought it home to their families as well. Wives and girlfriends
have been contaminated through sperm, causing a variety of gynecological problems,
including cancer and the need for hysterectomies. Children born to Gulf Veterans have
a much higher than normal incidence of birth defects, cancer and other diseases.
With Debra, Auntie Hannah, and Lillian, Kau‘i shows she knows many more than one
hula, accompanied by the Ke Ola Pono No Na Kupuna musicians.
The many services offered by Care Resources, Na Pu‘uwai and Hospice Hawai‘i was
available from Tessie Matayoshi, Jo Manaba, Donna Carvalho, and Alice Kono. The
Fitness Center, Diabetes Education, and regular Cardiac Risk clinics as well as behavioral health services are offered by the Native Hawaiian health program.

And of course, the same problems that have plagued our own citizens have also
taken place in the countries where depleted uranium has been used, including the
Balkans, Afghanistan and Iraq. In Basra, Iraq, cancer rates have leapt from 11/100,000
in 1988 to 123/100,000 in 2002. Cancer in children under the age of fifteen has tripled
at the Basra Maternity and Children's hospital since 1990. Children under five years of
age now make up 56% of the reported cancer cases, in 1990, they were 13% of the total.
There were several cases of babies born with multiple congenital birth defects in 1990.
In the last three years there have been more than 200 such cases. This scenario is being
played out wherever depleted uranium has been used.
As human rights attorney Karen Parker explains, the use of depleted uranium is
illegal in four ways: It fails the territorial test because it can't be contained on the battlefield. The impact of depleted uranium continues to be felt after the battle is over. It
is illegal because it causes inhumane death and injury. Depleted uranium irreparably
damages the environment. For all these reasons, the use of depleted uranium is in violation of the Geneva Convention and constitutes a war crime.
Why then are we still persisting in our use of toxic weaponry in the face of such
overwhelming danger to our environment and health? There is no justification for our
military killing us to protect us. Our continued ignorance and silence will become our
collective epitaph.
Now we find out the attacks on Afghanistan and Iraq were unnecessary: CIA's
final report says No WMD found in Iraq "In his final word, the CIA's top weapons
inspector in Iraq said Monday that the hunt for weapons of mass destruction has 'gone
as far as feasible' and has found nothing, closing an investigation into the purported
programs of Saddam Hussein that were used to justify the 2003 invasion. 'After more
than 18 months, the WMD investigation and debriefing of the WMD-related detainees
has been exhausted,' wrote Charles Duelfer, head of the Iraq Survey Group, in an
addendum to the final report he issued last fall." (04/25/05)
[Editor’s notes: "Silence can only be equated with fraud when there is a legal or
moral duty to speak, or when an inquiry left unanswered would be intentionally misleading... We cannot condone this shocking conduct... If this is the case we hope our
message is clear. This sort of decption will not be tolerated and if this is routine it
should be corrected immediately" —U.S. v. Twell 550 F2d 297, 299-300
Above all, the people of this land who are born to Americans on American soil are
by birthright members of the sovereignty. We are the supreme force in law and order,
and all other aspects of life. We each are a king in our own right, and are NOT subject to rules made by other men and women without our consent. We are sovereign,
and it is we who must behave as sovereigns. BRING our TROOPS home now!]

Molokai's Forum For Freedom
Individual’s Sovereignty vs Slavery
molokaiman@flex.com
All Men are created equal, endowed by their
Creator with unalienable Rights, Life, Liberty, Property
Ownership. Governments in America are instituted to
secure these Rights —D.O.I., 1776
by George Peabody ph. 558-8253 email:
Bill of Rights 2nd Amendment:
“A well regulated militia being necessary to the security
of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear
arms shall not be infringed.”
Wake up militia! Use it , or lose it ! Got your gun, yet?
"...with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge
to each other our lives, or fortunes and our sacred honor." (Decl. of Indep.)
Free and Independent with Guns
for every Soverign Citizen
See page 12 of the December, 2004 issue of National Geographic.
There is a large area between Afghanistan and Pakistan where the right to keep and
bear arms is a reality. Here, a fiercely independent people have successfully survived
without being adopted, subjugated, or tamed by any foreign nation-state, Afghanistan,
Pakistan or anyone else, including the former USSR.
The average household in this area has a watch tower and a solid fence around the
home, plus, a heavy anti-aircraft gun in the watchtower, plus a 50 caliber machine gun,
and enough AK-47's or other full automatic military style rifles for each family member
to use for defense, plus ample ammunition. The residents, or inhabitants of this area are
fiercely independent, self-sufficient, athletic, and lean/mean fighting machines. No one
wants to "mess with them". Those who have messed with them have regretted it. They
remain independent and free!
Unlike the modern USA: 1) These Middle Eastern village people exercise the 2nd
Amendment even when it is not in their law books, because the core idea of self defense
lives in their heart and in their psyche and they know the true value of arms under their
control; and 2) There is more than a correlation, there is a direct cause and effect,
between the degree of independence one retains and the type of firepower one retains,
coupled with the skill and willingness to use that firepower to retain one's independence.
While we spend billions guarding Iraq's border, we suffer an invasion of twenty million illegal aliens from the Mexican border and it grows by three million annually. This
is a Third World invasion without an end to the line, and the Minute Men with arms have
stepped up to assist the US Border Patrol with positive results.
But Pres. Bush and Condi Rice refuse to stop the alien invasion, and call the Minute
Men vigilantes. Bush and Rice need to learn what the Constitution means: It means the
rule of law is to be enforced by those who swear on the Bible to uphold its concepts.
It doesn't mean working against citizens who make up the legal population of this
society. It doesn't mean ignoring 20 million people illegally operating in the USA. It
doesn't mean encouraging more terror by leaving the borders stark raving open.
When Americans see a line of 50 state flags stabbed into the soil garnished with
hundreds of the Stars and Stripes, they will once again stand for their country. It's worth
fighting for. It's our country. It's our future. It's our children.
Rice and Bush don't know what's going on at the border. They are aloof, insulated,
isolated and totally clueless. The Minute Man Project is the American Revolution.
Those who don’t care to protect our borders from foreign invasion, and those who don’t
care to defend our Constitution from our terrorist government, deserve no freedom.
"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude
better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in
peace. We ask not your counsel or your arms. Crouch down and lick
the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and
may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Why You Shouldn’t Get a Marriage License
A marriage license involves three entities: Husband, wife and STATE.
It is mere state recognition of your marriage and circumstantially brings you into
statutory marriage laws of the state. In essence you marry the state. And this becomes
crystal clear when you divorce, because the State shows itself to be an interested Party
that gets to decide how to divide up your property, and take some for itself, and of course
the Officers of the Court, i.e., lawyers, judges et al, collect large fees.
Black’s Law dictionary defines marriage license, and you can trace it back to a
license to INTERMARRY BETWEEN THE RACES. This should trigger something
in your mind: In order to prevent inter-racial-marrying, the government tried to pass
laws saying someone should have a marriage license. Once the government got in the
marriage business, they won’t withdraw too much money. However the common law
still exists and people can simply marry without the state: Its called a common-law marriage. LET THIS BE A WARNING TO ALL WHO SEEK MARRIAGE LICENSES
FROM BIG BROTHER- if you don’t want to marry the State, that is.
No founding father of our Nation sheepishly walked into a government office and
asked for such permission to marry! And no Soverign American needs to do that today.
Simply record your marriage in your bible.
You ask: “Well is the marriage legal?”
Good grief, Charlie Brown! Just what part of unalienable rights don’t you understand? Does the government have the right to dictate to whom you can love for the rest
of your life?”
Please people, CLAIM YOUR RIGHT, DON’T ASK GOVERNMENT FOR IT.
Worldwide, the human race divides politically into two factions: those who want
people to be controlled, and those who have no such desire.
The urge to “save humanity” is almost always a false front for the urge to rule.
The people of the Republic retained all right and power not specifically granted to
governments (see McCulloch vs Maryland 4 wheat 316 (402) or 17 US 316 (1819)) and
the Bill of Rights, most specifically the ninth and tenth amendments).
JUDICIAL CONFLICT AND CORRUPTIONS
The only place a person can go for redress of grievance of wrongs
done to him by unconstitutional laws or the unconstitutional enforcement of same, is to a court where the judges have ruled themselves to
be immune from unconstitutional rulings.
Do we all see the problem, now?
Crimes of Politicians Must Be Stopped by The People (You are The Militia)
The crime on our streets is a tiny fraction of the crime in the offices of our politicians and bureaucrats - the massive majority of crime is committeed by the criminal classes in power. Just look
at the constant abuse of power in our State government offices and you will realize the extent of crime in Government. Just consider just how many BILLIONS of dollars a day Government extorts
from the people and how little WE get in return; and just how comfortable the politicians make themselves at the expense of the peoples they extort!
The goal of the founders of America was to restrict government within severe limits and to protect the rights of soverign individuals. Government has NO rights!
Judges are impeachable. Furthermore, judges may be removed immediately for violating oaths of office, involvement in conspiracies, extortion, and failing to uphold their duty to the common
law. Judges can also be arrested, they are not exempt from this nor are any other officials, including the President of the United States.
Do the people have the power to do this? Yes, the people have the power to do everything to defend our country against all enemies foreign or domestic politician, and government has no power
to say otherwise. Fascist bureaucrats might send out its armed marauders, but a huge group of The People (Militia) armed with guns as guaranteed their Right to keep and bear arms by the 2nd
Amendment is likely to stop them unless the governments decide that it is time to begin mass killings of all people who believe in the rights of Man. Wake up ! Enforce the Bill of Rights !
“A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” Exercise the 2nd Amendment.

May Day is Lei Day at Kilohana
Uncle Mutt Aea Walk
Run Benefits
Molokai Special
Olympics
The annual Uncle Mutt Aea Walk/Run
took place on a busy Saturday morning for our
island community, April 16th, but the 12
Special Athletes and their supporters were
ready for the 3-mile walk/run and the following
Track & Field Trials at the Molokai High Field.
Starting the event off, Uncle Mutt’s widow,
Auntie Paradise thanked everyone for their support and urged everyone to “dig deep” to send
the athletes to the State Summer Games scheduled for the Memorial Day weekend at the
University of Hawaii-Manoa sports facilities.
M
o‘i Kane Ryan Rapanot led the
Kilohana boys’ court in a spirited
Samoan Fish Dance. The Kilohana
School’s 2005 was Mo‘i Wahine Ulali a Pale. The
Kilohana School Ohana celebrated Lei Day on
April 29th under the shade of monkeypod and
shower trees on their outdoor stage.
Kilohana School’s Annual Lei Contest featured homegrown flowers fashioned into creative
and beautiful lei by adults and students.

New CD Release: WELO
Artist: Kaumakaiwa (Lopaka) Kanaka‘ole
It’s time for the voice of Na Hoku Hanohano
award winner Kaumakaiwa (Lopaka) Kanaka‘ole
to rise and speak of today’s young Hawaiian people. “Welo” honors the ancestors of the past, but
most definitely has today’s sound. Kaumakaiwa
turns 13 original new songs into the most interesting album to come out of Hawai‘i this year. His
first album, “Ha‘i Kupuna” was awarded the 2003
Na Hoku for composer of the year.
He blends music and chant with extraordinary
new interpretations that include the sounds of a
cello,snare drum and harmonica blended with the
ancient musical implements of Hawai‘i. He is
joined by special guests Robert Cazimero, Kekuhi
Kanahele and Napua Greig.
Kaumakaiwa is the eldest son of Kekuhi
Kanahele, grandson of Pualani Kanaka‘ole and
great grandson of Edith Kanahele Kana‘ole, well-known Kumu Hula. He says, “ As
each generation passes it becomes more and more challenging for the next to not only
meet that standard but seek to raise the bar of native intelligence and push the envelope.
So, my music is a testament to this endeavor, not to meet any expectations people might
have, but rather embrace my birthright and rise to the standards these generations before
me and generation before them have set--seek not to change the face of Hawaiian
music, but rather to add to the potential of its growth and natural progression.”
Few musicians are ever able to transfer a studio performance to a live performance
with the same energy. In this case, Kaumakaiwa’s dynamic force that brings audiences
to their feet was captured in the studio with his musicians and channeled into this beautifully mixed CD.
If you want to hear what the future of Hawaiian music holds, this CD will point you
in the right direction. For a preview of “Welo” visit www.mountainapplecompany.com.
On behalf of all of us at Moloka‘i Community Health Center, we would like to
thank you for your kind generosity in printing the announcement in The Moloka‘i
Advertiser-News regarding our recent Immunization Clinic held Saturday, March 12th.
Several patients commented that they had rad about it in your newspaper, and that was
how they ended up at our clinic that day.
With the combined efforts of people like you, we were able to administer the flu
shot to more people from our community that we expected, 55 in all, despite the rainy
weather! Truly, it is with support from businesses such as The Molokai AdvertiserNews that we are able to work toward our mission to improve people’s health by providing affordable access to quality, comprehensive health care.
Again, Mahalo for your time and generous spirit that contributed to making this
event a big success!
With Deep Appreciation, The Moloka‘i Community Health Center Staff (Dr. Dan
Shuman, Cedric Alonzo, Debbie Davis, Annette Gorospe, Olivia Cabanting, Tracy Ann
Hao, LPN; Jane Woolsey, RN, Debra Eala, Agatha Fontes.
