      While we should wait for details, however it would not surprise me. Sadly (as a side note) in the past my wife and I would take a walk to Waikiki and perhaps have a meal before going home. Homeless was not a big issue back then. Now we have so many unstable Homeless transients, we have opted to simply avoid Waikiki. The issue is not that they are Homeless present…it’s our safety. Something needs to done before it gets out of hand for residents and the children who are in close proximity (Jefferson Elementary, Waikiki Elementary).

    Typical S/A story. No information. Why take-up the space?

    It’s that time of the month where they running out of funds in their EBT and food stamps down to under $20. Plus no alcohol or substance abuse money always not budgeting for end of month parties. Everyone needs to stay away from Kapahulu-Kalakaua area end of month. Let em stab each other if that’s the only way the streets will become safer.

    Were these two men homeless? Is the homeless now trying to kill each other. Maybe drug related.
