I have a Hawaiian friend who is very friendly to all people. He is one of my best friends and I don't agree with what you said, in fact most Hawaiians I've met have been very kind.
I find this comment racist and offensive.
My brother in law is 100% native Hawaiian, raised on the big island.
He will be the first to tell you to watch your behind if you aren't native when you step out of the tourist areas. Like, knocked out without a word for sitting on a "natives only" bench that only the natives know is natives only.
Remember, there are still many native people there who were still alive when Hawaii was "their" island. There is still a lot of resentment and fresh memories.
While I like the idea of touring Europe, I wouldn't want to live there unless I was wealthy.
