"E mālama i ke kānāwai." He aʻo aʻo ia a ikaika loa e hoʻokō ai i nā manaʻo hohonu o ka pololei a me ka hewa, a ʻoi aku hoʻi i ka pale ʻana i ke kumu kumu no ke ola pilikino. E aʻo maoli mākou (ʻaʻole ia ma kā mākou genes) e pono ai mākou e mālama i "ke kānāwai o ka ʻāina."

...

ʻAʻole naʻe he hewa nā kānāwai a me nā lula. Pono ka poʻe i nā manaʻo paʻakikī e pili ana i ke kuleana e mālama i ke kānāwai.

ʻO ke hoʻolohe ʻana i ke kānāwai i ka wā e hoʻouna ai ʻoe iā ʻoe e kaua ke ʻano he hewa. ʻO ke kūpono i ka mālama ʻana i ke kānāwai e pili ana i ka pepehi kanaka. E hoʻokau pono ʻole ʻoe i kēlā kānāwai, pono ʻoe e hōʻole i ka hoʻolohe i ke kānāwai e hoʻouna ana iā ʻoe e kaua.

Akā, ʻaʻole waiho nā wahi i manaʻo no ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i ke kānāwai a me ka hoʻāhewa kanaka e pili ana i ka hana e hoʻokō i ke kānāwai. He kūpaʻa a kūpaʻa. ʻO ia ke kapu kūlike o kēlā me kēia aupuni, ʻo Fascist, Komunist, a i ʻole capitalist libist.

ʻO Gertrude Scholtz-Klink, ke poʻo o ka ʻĀina Wahine ma lalo o Hitler, i wehewehe i ka mea ninaninau ma hope o ke kaua o ke kuleana a nā Iudaio no Nazis, "Ua mālama mau mākou i ke kānāwai. ʻAʻole anei ʻoe e hana i ʻAmelika? Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻae pono i kahi loio, e mālama nō ʻoe. Inā ʻaʻole pilikia ka ola. "

"E pio ka ola." Inā mākou e ʻae i ka hoʻolohe ʻole i ke kānāwai, e loaʻa ana iā mākou i ka anarchy. Kuhi ʻia kēlā manaʻo i ka lahui o kēlā me kēia ʻāina. ʻO ka hua'ōlelo i ʻae ʻia "ʻo ke kānāwai a me ka ʻoiaʻiʻo." He ʻōlelo ia e hoʻouna ai i nā mākaʻi a me ka pūʻali koa e wāwahi i nā hōʻikeʻike i nā wahi āpau, inā ma Moscow a ma Chicago paha. Ma hope o ka luku ʻana i ʻehā mau haumāna ma ke Kulanui ʻo Kent State ma 1970 i nā makahiki Guardsmen. ʻO ia ke kumu i hāʻawi ʻia e nā luna Kina i ka makahiki 1989 i ko lākou luku ʻana i nā haneli o ka hōʻike ʻana i nā haumāna ma Beijing.

He ʻōlelo ia e hoʻopiʻi ai i ka hapa nui o nā kamaʻāina, ʻoiai, inā ʻaʻole lākou hou iho i kaniā nui aku ai i ka mana, makaʻu lākou i nā hana hoʻopilikia. I ka makahiki 1960, ua kamaʻike kekahi haumāna ma ke kula ʻo Harvard Law ma kēia mau mākua a me nā alumni:

Haunaele nā ​​alanui o ko mākou ʻāina. Ua piha nā kulanui i nā haumāna kipi a me ka haunaele. Ke ʻimi nei nā poʻe Komunista e luku i ko mākou ʻāina. Ua hoʻoweliweli ʻo Rusia iā mākou me kāna mana. A aia i ka repubalika nā pōʻino. Ae! kuʻu kaua mai loko aku a i waho. Manaʻo mākou i ke kānāwai a me ka ʻono! Me ka ʻole o ke kānāwai a ke ʻae ʻole hiki i ko mākou lāhui ke ola.

Aia nā kahe lōʻihi. I ka make ʻana o ka pāheo, ʻōlelo malū ke haumāna i kāna mea hoʻolohe. "ʻO kēia mau ʻōlelo i ʻōlelo ʻia i ka makahiki 1932 e Adolph Hitler."

Pono, he malu, kūpaʻa, a me ka ʻono. ʻAʻole nā ​​hū a me ka hoʻomālamalama. Akā ʻo ke kūleʻa a me ka ʻōpiopio ʻaʻole wale nō nā kūlana e makemake ai i ka nohona. Aia nō kekahi kaulike, ʻo ke ʻano ka lawelawe kaulike o nā kānaka āpau, ke kaulike kūpono o nā kānaka a pau i ka pono a me ka pōmaikaʻi. Hiki i ke hoʻolohe pololei ʻana i ke kānāwai ke kauoha i kahi manawa pōkole, eia naʻe ʻaʻole naʻe e lawe i ka pono. A inā ʻaʻole, i kūʻē paha ka poʻe i hana ʻia me ka maikaʻi ʻole, a laila hoʻi kipi, e like me nā mea hoʻomakeka ʻana o ʻAmelika i hana i ka makahiki ʻumikumamāwalu, e like me ka poʻe antislavery i hana ai i ka kenekulia ʻumikūmāwalu, e like me nā haumāna Haina i hana i kēia kenekulia, a me he poʻe hana hana ke hana nei i ka hoʻouka ʻana ma kēlā me kēia ʻāina, ma nā kenekulia.
