skyosh,  how many other United States fisheries are accused of slavery "allegations".  Do you think that a properly run fishery using American labor and union sanctioned labor and illegal labor are having these problems.  Do you think those other fisheries keep persons unlawfully in the United States as "detained on board".  What happens in other countries is there fight.  We do not have trafficking in human being in this country.  Nobody is ignoring what is happening overseas.  But by all thing holy that this conduct will not continue in the United States.  There is no justification for what this Hawaiian fishery does.  You statement begs for the truth.... we should stop trafficking in human labor.
