It's funny how our country will go to great lengths to help ensure marine mammals are kept protected and unmolested. There are laws to prevent people from doing anything that would even slightly alter their normal behavior.

Yet there are no laws against ramming American customs and culture unto other societies. Seems there's more concern for seals and whales than other human beings.

Sure there are --- just not American laws.

Without physical occupation of the territory in question, I think the "ramming" takes on voluntary aspects. In Hawaii's case you did have occupation of course.

Stone age cultures, when contacted by modern man, suffer from a lack of 5000 years of human social evolution. Even if they survive the contact for the first 100 years, in spite of disease they have no natural resistance to, they are doomed due to a lack of 5000 years of human social evolution.

I don't know. I think it could be argued that modern society has gone thru a social DE-EVOLUTION in some respects.
