Officers have arrested about 20 pro-sovereignty activists after the second takeover this year of the grounds of a Honolulu palace.

State law officers climbed a fence and made the arrests Saturday at the historic Iolani Palace.

About a dozen men had locked the palace gates Friday evening and posted signs saying: "Property of the Kingdom of Hawaiian Trust."

Hawaiian activists have long used the palace as a location for protests against U.S. occupation of the islands.

Good for those protesters calling for Hawaii's sovereignty, who took over the historic palace. Stand up. But thats too bad they got arrested.
