September 11, 2010 – Hilo, Hawaii
Video by David Corrigan
It was a swap meet of conspiracy theories and alternative perspectives in the Hilo Lanes parking lot on Saturday, where the Aloha Uprising cast a skeptical eye on what most of the country now observes as Patriot Day.
Signs that read “9/11 Inside Job” and “9/11 Coverup” (a reflection of a growing, internet driven theory) adorned some a few booths at the event, while other stations presented Non-Partisan candidates for public office, Hawaiian Sovereignty activists, and cannabis freedom supporters.
Although far from a mainstream theory amongst Americans, the so called “9/11 Inside Job” has gathered a following in the years after the apparent terrorist attacks. In 2006, a Scripps-Howard poll of a little over a thousand adults found that 36% of Americans consider it “very likely” or “somewhat likely” that government officials either allowed the World Trade Center attacks to occur, or carried out the attacks themselves.
Organizer Gene Tamashiro said the Hilo event was held in the name of the pursuit of truth, and hoped to share information on a world that is “spiraling out of control” with policies of war and lies.
The peaceful event was scheduled to feature local music from Kaliko Guys, Margo Kimball, Jean Alena, Nanea, Old Habits Die Hard, Ismaila, Lisa Chaly, Rick Barbati, and Kava John.

Aloha Gene,
Weeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!
What a ride you are on braddah! You dizzy and it shows.
Deaf, Dumb and Blind to reality. There is evil in the world. 911 was a result of evil Muslim Terrorists-they still exist!
Uncle Sam has his faults, but he has done more good for the world at large than ANY country in history. The world without the USA would probably be destroyed by Nazi’s, Communists, Progressives and Radicals.

There have been 2 programs that I saw on a special report on t.v. where the engineering of the twin towers and how they fell was explained. To bad you missed them. Wish I had copied them for you and Willy Nelson. I think you both been smoking to much. You are very badly informed.
WTC-7, no planes, etc. collapsed like a controlled demolition – look it up and watch it fall on youtube.
Since when does a fire create such a clean/controlled mess.
People, some at least, would freak to find out that things arent what they seem to be and their whole reality would crumble… its all good though because once you are aware change can come about. Stick your head and the sand and pretend things are what your puppet masters says – well then nothing will change and the horrors your afraid of will continue
***I wish you luck but the sad news is that understanding history and how the world works takes a considerable amount of intellect and at least 80% of the population is incapable of understanding these conditions. So while your effort is commendable, it may prove to be a futile.***Its like telling people in Easter Island that they were running out of wood.!
Too many people in the US have this unconditional love for the American Empire as it now stands. I would like to ask those people why they have this unconditional love in spite of, the loss of the Magna Carta, the Bill of Rights, the Constitution, and Miranda rights. Gene makes some very valid points, he wants to improve his local community and protect Hawai’i despite the destruction of freedom happening in North America. Just this week anti-war protesters have been arrested in North America without any charges…does that sound like a free country to you? Free speech zones? I thought America was a free speech zone? Patriot Act 1 & 2? Doesn’t sound like freedom to me!!! I think Hawai’i has more to offer for its inhabitants without undue influence from corrupt outside political forces. I hope the federal government will just leave Hawai’i alone and let these islands thrive because they don’t need to be involved in all of this silliness from Washington.
