    Ahhhhh, yes. “This land of Aloha”. Keep pushing the myth….

  3. kekelaward says:

    What? The cops not even talking to you guys now?

    I wonder who’s orders that was…

    • lespark says:

      To protect, to serve. The rookies are afraid of the criminals.

      • kaupani says:

        I would be too. Some of the trash out here care only to tat themselves and hurt everyone around them, as though that’s what it means to be a man. With each successive generation it repeats.

        • Carang_da_buggahz says:

          Not only does it repeat, it gets progressively worse with each lost generation. I shudder to think what awaits us even 20 years from now.

        (I remember early one morning when 4th watch was closing the Wave. A brand new rookie asked for rap-warrant on Charlie Stevens. I Think every officer in D-1 responded to that one.)

        can you blame them? Its a shame, these guys want to protect and serve but the criminals are better armed then they are, and its always ‘why did you shoot, just because he had a gun pointed at you/just because he was coming at you with a knife, and he had 30 priors, he was a good boy”

    When it gets dark, go home – if you have a home.

  5. jeffhonolulu says:

    SA this happened last night !!! By now don’t you have any more info??

  6. residenttaxpayer says:

    Keeaumoku Street has a concentration of bars from which results in a steady amount of fights that end up outside into the streets…..bad combination of alcohol and hot tempered young men so it’s not surprising that these fights happen regularly…….

    • Carang_da_buggahz says:

      Well said. Every point you make is validated all too often, with disastrous and sometimes fatal results. With the predictable prevalence of drunken violent crime in this area, HPD still doesn’t get the message. Foot patrols would seem to be warranted here. Eh, Louie, are you listening? It’s your watch. Get with it! Or are you only thinking about your upcoming retirement at this point?

      • Mythman says:

        I just heard of another beating to death involving the n shore brazilian illegal alien drug thugs. any connection to this one?

      • kekelaward says:

        A nice idea, but I’m not sure what good having 8 footmen hanging out at 939 trying to make time with the dancers while their Sgt is hanging out at the Downtown Substation is going to do to stop crime.

    Pilau town side

    Well, look at the bright side.

    The poor guy didn’t go to church instead.
