Interesting to note the Sutter from Sutter's Mill from the California Gold Rush was in Hawaii and forced 10 Hawaiians to take him to California where he then enslaved people in my tribe during the Gold Rush. Those Hawaiians married into my tribe and a bunch of modern day people in the tribe have Hawaiian ancestry (I don't seem to, unfortunately).

I had forgotten that thread. That got surprisingly contentious. Assuming anything on this forum can be "surprisingly" contentious.
I think it was down in Samoa, I saw a guy that looked like this fellow, carrying a big bolo knife. He was running through the jungle in hot pursuit of a sailor. I am pretty sure the sailor crossed some taboo or another.
