I agree. In an area that consistently votes in conservative candidates for the house and senate this guy is an anomaly. He's been in for years and most candidates are voted in on name recognition alone. Rarely do people pay attention to their politics, as it's a non-partisan race.

There are a couple of other things to consider as well. If he's voted out, one of his cronies will undoubtedly take his spot at the top, the new member will be junior. Therefore the entire board will need to be targeted. Otherwise, we risk having someone with even more fascist views being in charge.

Then there's the problem of finding someone that's willing to do the job, dealing with the complaints and issues of the community. Hardly what I would call a fun packed adventure.

We should, IMHO, begin working and organizing in this direction. It may take a few years, but the results would be worth it.
In the meantime, I intend to become a regular fixture at all future NB meetings.

yup
only people who get these positions are those that are actively seeking them for their egos
people who are smart enough to do well at all levels of politics, are smart enough to spend their time more wisely, like being productive members of the community

i plan on being a fixture at the meetings too
not sitting by edster though, he kinda creeps me out

Judge Janet B. Arterton of the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut disagreed............

The judge dismissed one of the group's RCRA claims, which asserted that Metacon disposed of hazardous waste without a permit. In so ruling, Judge Arterton relied on a January 2001 EPA publication in which the agency concluded that lead shot is not hazardous waste subject to the RCRA at the time it is discharged from a firearm because it is being used for its intended purpose.


Yep, and while it is being argued in court for 2, 3, or 4 years the range will be closed of course. 

It is what it is.

sHUTDowN!!! I knew there was a plot brewing underneath the whole bullet over the mountain story.  Or maybe they don't want people transporting high caliber firearms because the president is here, their probably scared that we might draw a bead on him? In the mean time we should be patient and vigilant and ride out this storm.

Oh yeah, because all motions for dismissal are immediately granted, no matter the merits of the arguments.  Case in point, the range is now closed so make your motion. Remember this is Hawaii?

The start of an agenda


I remember there was another HK resident that claimed it ruined "her" Kokohead. Don't see how as the archery range was just a field of weeds. No one cared for it then.
We need a org. "Friends of Kokohead"
While not about Kokohead, I heard that the now closed Kapiolani Archery site is being considered a dog park. How many dog parks do we need?
