    The gunman needed more firing range practice?

    I stay Big Island, yet I still know where Pupukahi Street is. Good to know where you shouldn’t go.

    Geez can’t you losers on Pupukahi Street do ANYTHING right? At least wipe each other out for the rest of us. In the leg?? Pfft.

      Maybe they should wipe out the landlords or realty agencies that manages those apartments. Maybe after they take care of Kaka`ako, they can take care of Pupukahi Street.

  5. soundofreason says:

    Maybe the reason we have so many criminals and repeat offenders on this streets is because our “justice” system PUTS them there?

  6. paniolo says:

    “…released pending further investigation.” So what’s new? Why can’t they be in a jail cell and HPD conduct investigation? Why let them on the street so they can commit another crime and endanger the public?

    If DeltaDag were there, he would have shot the gunman before he took a single step.
