Judging by their history, probably not. Just like people's everywhere, Hawaiians have a very violent history full of warfare!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Nu%CA%BBuanu

"Caught between the Hawaiian Army and a 1000-foot drop, over 700 Oʻahu warriors either jumped or were pushed over the edge of the Pali (cliff). In 1898 construction workers working on the Pali road discovered 800 skulls which were believed to be the remains of the warriors that fell to their deaths from the cliff above."
