You’ve already read Civil Beat‘s coverage of the first court appearance for the environmental lawsuit filed against the Honolulu rail project.

Now, you can check out what the opponents themselves have to say.

What has become clear is that the City/FTA is fighting not to get clarification on the legal issues, but rather to obstruct and delay in any way they can. The advantage gained by the government is solely to run up the legal expenses in an attempt to freeze us out. We plaintiffs have to raise money from volunteers whereas a majority of the City Council continues to give the City Administration unlimited legal funds to fight us.

That’s from a new post today on Hawaii Reporter. The author is HonoluluTraffic.com, the anti-rail organization headed by plaintiff Cliff Slater.
