I dont find it disrespectful but more just seems to make me question- just why....Do actual Hawaiians find it disrespectful for all these non Hawaiians(blood or multi generation residents) naming their kids Hawaiian names?
Your assessment of US taking it for strategic military value is spot on. The 90% Native die off from European diseases starting in the late 1700s was fvcked up.Sucks what happened and the annexation was totally illegal.
But all things considered it was without bloodshed or tribal fighting.
Other places like places in Africa weren’t so lucky. Where they enslaved everyone and cut their hands off for not working hard enough.
More or less the US took it cause of strategic value and location for military bases.

I'm still a wee bit bitter about a perfect left he blatantly burned me on at Uppers.Before Dino became a soccer dad - he was way radder when he would be strumming his guitar, stoned between heats, at PSAA comps - just sayin
Is an engineer same as architect? Do I still need an architect?Need engineering plans before you can get a building permit, right?
If you want to do it cheap and have some drafting skills, draw up what you think you want, take it to construction/engineering firm, explain the materials you want, let them do the finish work to submit to building/planning of local govt of ok to proceed.
When we redid our front stairs, had to get engineering plans to latest building code/earthquake specs before anything else (should have taken plans and hired different contractors, but that aspect is water under the bridge).
Turns out the guy who did the plans for the permit used to work in SF Bldg/Planning...did this sort of work on the side as he was "retired".
