17 year old is not a little kid. Attempted murder for fighting in the ocean? Cmon, cannot man up, brah no surf velzy.
Uh,39-year-old Nanakuli man/NanakuliBoss??? Any relationship???
Being 39 years old does not make one an adult either apparently.
Nanakuli boss expresses typical Nanakuli culture. Deplorable.
Whole basket full of deplorables out there.
This is what happens when entitled teens think they can cut off an adult. Always yield to your elder. American culture teaches you this. Auwe.
And there you have it folks!!!! Straight out of Nanakuli!! “Da punk kid wen drop in on me, dat guy!?” You see, this is why I gave up on surfing years ago. Far too much bruddahs (and white bruddahs, too) Thinking they got more testosterone then me. Like I care. But they all wanna show everybody what a top tier surfer they are. And stay oughta my way, brah! Every break, every island has plenty guys (and girls too!!!) who have no courtesy to share waves with each other. Too many guys everyday go out and play “Hog Cheese” Such a burn out to enjoy a session when you can’t get waves b’cuz some selfish punk drops in on everybody in his effort to get his 10th wave of the morning and you haven’t been able to get at least 1 good ride yet. Obviously, this 39 year old gutless banana was tired of some 17 year old kid (who could have been the one stealing everyone’s waves, too) and over-reacted. Whatever. Maybe he should have decided to go in before all that stuff happened?
Chill pilot. No one said “punk”. Geez.
“Bruddah”? Lol. It’s “braddah”…go buy da kine local buk.
NB can be mean but at heart he is very kind and compassionate. I have seen his better side.
Oh my, sweet words allie. Yes, as the boss, I have repremanded the 39 year old youngster. He said the kid screamed” Eh,you not from dis side! Beat it. Did the police check who had more salt water in their lungs? Kids on the North Shore are huge. Did you see the Kahuku football team? 15 year old 6’4, 320 lbs.! Many of them. Anyway good luck to Kahuku in Vegas. Beat BG.
What a punk you are NB. What a punk…
Wednesday….5:30? Umm….job?
Wait,velzy not near Haleiwa. Eh SA you guys know your surf areas?
LOL you got that right. They don’t know the difference between Makua, Makaha, Wai`anae Ma`ili and or Nanakuli.
Right. The difference between Waialae and Waianae is just a “i” & “n”. Actually folks in Waianae wold take offense to that,lol. Y’all have a beautiful day, y’hear.
So much room for speculation. I would love an SA story that really develops both sides of the story and then discusses how issues like this might best be resolved or prevented. Lost opportunities …
Please. This is just an intitial police report. Deeper stories don’t happen overnight.
But will they follow up on it?? Maybe.. I will probably have to hear about it from my friends to find out what really happened…this kind of stuff has gone on for years.. From this coverage, you cannot tell what happened.. there are a lot of disrespectful kids nowadays.. and a lot of adult crazies too..
I don’t think there’s much depth to this story: one guy drops in on the other guy, tempers flare, young guy gets water boarded. End of story.
why don’t you start your own newspaper, roberts, so you can influence everyone to behave according to your arbitrary views instead of just using the NSNB to promote your own views?
scary out there
Best you stay under your bed. Hillary will surely take good care of you.
Trump is a bully. I prefer Hillary. We all do. Trump ios playing people.
Didn’t an earlier story say the boy refused to press charges against the 39 year old?
If true, the “boy” has an uncommonly strong sense of intelligence and self-preservation. Otherwise, he’ll be looking behind his back from now on when he paddles out. He might not be so lucky next time.
Need more information was the 39 year old a local and the teenage boy a visitor? Makes a difference because was checking online about the Wolf Pack that kind of took over for the Black Shorts or Da Hui that are a local group of surfers that “patrol” and use vigilante justice for surfers who supposedly cut in, hog waves or disrespect the the local surfers. Sounds like it in this case.
wolf pack
both were “locals.”
Inverse,the Nanakuli man was obviously not a ” local” of the area, thus NANAKULI. So yes he was the visitor. The teen might have been a local of the North Shore. What’s your point?
Bad behavior,but overpopulation even causes road rage and surf overcrowding and misery of every aspect of our lives. And Nanakuli culture is low life.
Be proactive. Move.
Overpopulation is worse in Asia Africa and Europe already and South America is full of criminals. Must suffer and complain here.
Respect. If you’re gonna act dumb you better be tough. Be aware and understand the pecking order.
“Dumb” and “tough” rarely go hand in hand, although a lot of dumb guys think they’re tough.
REAL TOUGH GUY … picking on a teenager … HOPE HE HAS TO REGISTER AS A CHILD MOLESTER !!!!!
You don’t know squat yet. And if the 17 year old weighs 250 and the 39 year old weighs 160? And if we find out the 17 year old was a punk, talking trash, or worse? Child molester? Child please!
At 39 yrs old you should be smart enough to walk away … physical weight has no bearing on intelligence
Huh? How is physical assault in the form of attempted drowning go to that? Regardless, let’s not all rush to judgement. We’ll know the real story soon enough.
Check out the book from the Public Library “Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life” by William Finnegan……you’ll find the answer to yesterday’s incident.
even your friend POTUS Obama read this book over the Summer.
Great book and reveals the true underbelly of racism in Hawaii. Good read !
Just shows the mentality of the “kind” local surfer dudes..
Ah, this happens everywhere. CA is notorious for it.
That is true. Nearly all places have local folks, working class, grew up in the area, attended public schools, holds traditional values and gender roles, distrust of outsiders, territorial, more likely to settle disputes face to face and papain with violence, childhood ties to folks who become police and others in organized crime/graft, ties to many people and pkaces and history of a neighborhood or town or county.
This is an oversimplification, but is what I have observed in communities across the country. Hawaii is no different. In old Hawaii, they were called “makainana”.
I think the overcrowding of all our public facilities causes rage. Men, especially men who are inadequate in some fashion, are especially likely to ex[ress rage.
We dont all like Hillary… look at the national polls..Hillary should be in the prison you mention.
