[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IMO, yes.

Here's why I think that: the people.

The Hawaiian people have become so terribly rude towards mainlanders over the past few years.

My brother lives in HI and is a firefighter. He's lived there for 12 years now and even he gets harassed from time to time if he's outside of his "central" area where he lives.

We were just there last month for his wedding and it was probably my least favorite trip I've been on in ages. The Hawaiian's new favorite thing is to go to the beaches at the resorts and be super annoying. They do things like put their chairs and blankets right next to yours, accidentally kick sand on you, accidentally throw balls/frisbees at you, etc.

I go 2-3 times a year to visit him but I really hate giving them my tourism dollars. [/quote]

Are you non-Asian?

I am Asian and found the locals very welcoming. Locals typically do not like entitling behavior that some Americans bring with them. Maybe you gave off that vibe?[/quote]

What are you talking about, that Hawaiians don’t like Americans? They ARE Americans!![/quote]
