they spend, they wen spend more than three minutes. Why only get three minutes wen this going
<br />impact my life till I die? My whole lifetime.
<br />So, I only get three minutes for talk about that? I don't think that's fair. You know how you get
<br />choices when you go in the store. You can pick what you like buy, right? The tenant not going
<br />come over here, "brah, you better buy this or I going cram this down your throat." No, you get
<br />one choice. Get different kind selection. You know what I mean? Now this, you're taking away
<br />my freedom of choice. I choose not to live by poison, and I bought my property, I wen look. I
<br />drive down that whole subdivision looking for anything, you know—electrical stuff, power
<br />plants. I no like my family get sick. See what I'm saying? My father told me, "You the man,
<br />you the protector of your family. Anybody step in your yard, like hurt your family, they gotta
<br />come through you." Period. And, I stand by that. I'll take one bullet for my family. You come
<br />with one gun, I going take the bullet. I not going let you shoot my family. You guys impacting,
<br />this stuff is impacting not only me, the whole community. Get 5,000 people or something live in
<br />Paradise Park. Most of them don't know. Is that fair to them? They don't know what's going
<br />on. I don't think that's fair. It's not. We all human. Be human when you think, you make your
<br />decision. No be like one robot. That's why I no more one cell phone. I don't know about
<br />anybody over here, but I can speak for myself. I don't like technology cause I see what the thing
<br />doing to people. It is. People turning into robots. No more, no more feeling, cold inside. They
<br />lost that human ability. Be human. We all human, the same. Don't treat us different, because
<br />like me, I poor. So what, poor people get treated what? Poorly. You poor, you no more, you no
<br />more value. That's not right. That's wrong that. I get Hawaiian. Think how the Hawaiians wen
<br />think. The family important, `ohana. You see? You see all the culture? Everybody make party,
<br />happy, right? That's what this place is about. Supposed to be love, not hate. Not this, not
<br />[inaudible] making people get sick. And even if you say it's safe, are you absolute sure? I like
<br />see the evidence. Nobody can bust out evidence. You saying they passing all this
<br />RAFFIPIY: —Okay, Mr. Grace—
<br />GRACE: you know what I mean—
<br />RAFFIPIY: you can start wrapping up, please.
<br />GRACE: Well, you know what I'm saying, right? You guys can hear, eh? Thank you.
<br />RAFFIPIY: Mahalo.
<br />EVANS: Aloha, Sariah Evans. I live in Pahoa. So, I remember hearing a story years back about
<br />how when the US was planning on launching their first rocket up to space, we got really
<br />concerned because they didn't know how they were going to take notes because there's not [sic]
<br />gravity up there, and their pens weren't gonna work, and the Russians, they laughed. They
<br />laughed at America, and they said, "hey guys, you got pencils." Well, as I sat here listening all
<br />day long, and I go out to lunch, and I think about what I'm hearing, and I hear people talking
<br />about oh if we get together and do this, no, remain open, and so the AT&T guy talked about this
<br />program about the Net so coverage could happen so that people could be protected and
<br />something dawned on me. Hey, we've got land lines. We got land lines to all these places, and
