Supposed Hawaiian Freedom Fighter :
Robert W. Wilcox
Shows he was a traitor for the Hawaiian Kingdom yet we currently honor this man for the rebellion (probably a deception) and erected a statue of him in downtown Honolulu.
Hawaiian History has to be revisited throughout time to ascertain the true History of Hawaii.
It is similar to naming the Honolulu International Airport Daniel Inouye a Traitor to the Kingdom of Hawaii.

- Note that the following speech was not covered in the newspapers nor was it brought out in the trial for ROBERT W. WILCOX, et. als.:
page 105:
"highly educated part-Hawaiians, such as Robert W. Wilcox and John E. Bush, who, while strongly identifying with the Hawaiian people, nevertheless often opposed the Queen and considered the monarchy obsolete."
Robert Wilcox delivered the following speech on May 5, 1892, before an audience of about 200:
Monarchy is limited to descendants of royalty. Republic means the welfare of all. In an aristocratic republic the president is chosen from the nobility. In a democratic republic any commoner can become a president. The most popular man, receiving the greatest number of votes will become president. America and Switzerland are the leading republics of today.
Those who tell you that you are not fit to govern a republic, you should regard as your worst enemies.
Those who tell you that you are not fit to govern a republic, you should regard as your worst enemies.
Our greatest enemy is the Queen, because she keeps the Hawaiians down. (Applause)
Are we to be governed by Wilson (Marshal Charles B. Wilson, alleged lover of the Queen). I do not wish to be governed by dolls. I believe no woman ought to reign. They have no brains. They are generally weak."
