"The hot economy is attracting poorly educated immigrants who can have problems fitting in. Groups of young Micronesians from Western Pacific islands such as Chuk sometimes fight with other groups in low-income Honolulu neighborhoods, police reports say." Poorly educated Chuukese?

While vacationing on an island in the Pacific, the rec.scuban emptied an Ingram Mac Model 10 into a woman while screaming "you dumb fucken bitch!" I'm not sure I'd call that a guest interview with an islander. >http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2007-03-06-hawaii-cover_N.htm?csp=34&POE=cli ck-refer So how do the "immigrants" get there? Walk?
