While I respect Mr. Chin's personal convictions, his position as US Attorney requires him to rise to a higher standard of conduct, beyond his personal beliefs. His personal traits may benefit his passion to do what's right but it should not interfere with his responsibility to prioritize what is best for Hawaii's people.

Chin's actions and statements clearly reveal that he was blinded by his own personal interests and saddly he has acted in a self serving manner and in the course of this, he has also insulted the people of Hawaii accusing us of being ignorant about the challenges of cultural diversity.  Chin should spend more time immersed in our communities to experience  both the good and challenges we face.  Mr. Chin, my advice is "no talk first. Try listen and observe first." It is amazing how much you will learn with your ears and eyes....and it will help you keep your foot from getting stuck in you mouth.  Aloha, good luck Mr. Chin.
