Thank you and I'm sorry if I didn't come across effectively but there's no need to be nasty. Indigenous Polynesians have extended family and kinship with people all across the Pacific based on traditional cultural associations and protocols that while legitimate in their own cultural law may not conform to western standards. As it was expressed to me by one very knowledgeable Kupuna, who btw works for the federal government, many such people who have married and made families in Hawaii from other places like Tonga and Tahiti have been here a long time but never became naturalized citizens and are on the edge of legality. These people are understandably scarred of being kicked out and separated from their families who, while legitimate by indigenous Polynesian law are vulnerable to prosecution under state law. This is why people people are scarred. Was this more effective? Aloha..
