Uphold the law
on Mauna Kea
It appears to me that the state and local authorities are creating more problems by not enforcing laws regarding Mauna Kea and the Thirty Meter Telescope.
Why are people allowed to block access to Mauna Kea? Why are these same people allowed to camp on Mauna Kea? Why are these people allowed to place rocks in the roadway to stop vehicles from going up the mountain?
Peaceful protesting does not include these activities.
I cannot access the Mauna Kea summit because of the protesters and my rights are now being impacted. Hold the protesters accountable and enforce the laws — starting with Gov. David Ige.

Common sense trumped by
greed, feelings
Have you heard the news? Being transgender is the “new normal.” Well, of course, you have if you own a TV or noticed the magazines at the check-out counter. It’s the latest fantasy being sold; and for the record most Americans aren’t buying it.
Olympian Bruce Jenner’s cover photo on Vanity Fair titled “Call me Caitlyn” announced it. Bruce feels happier being a woman. So reality TV and anyone who can capitalize from it is making a fortune.
The photographer Annie Leibovitz, known for capturing the soul, certainly caught it. If “the eyes are the mirror to the soul” then clearly Bruce’s eyes reveal a tortured one. No denying it.
The real “new normal” is we are living in a world where common sense is being trumped by feelings and greed.
Time we grow some and rethink it.
