Bob Karman.  How can you use "tolerant" and "progressive" in the same sentence?  Hawaii may indeed be tolerant--about race, skin color, cultural practices, and even religion--but it is far from tolerant when it comes to differences in ideology.   Just look at Hawaii's electoral history.  Any Republican who dares run against the Democrat Monarchy is vilified, trashed, slandered, and otherwise destroyed in the public forum.  Progressives play nice only when you agree with them; their hypocritical double-standards and misunderstanding of the constitutional role of government in our lives are pathetic.  God save us from Progressivism.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiVQ8vrGA_8
