After reading an article mentioning the National Guard and Waikiki in the same sentence, I know that we are reaching (“Calling National Guard to Waikiki a ‘nonstarter,’ official says,” Star-Advertiser, Jan. 17).
A quick, simple solution involves placing police on regular beats through Waikiki and adding more bike-mounted patrols. A substation in Waikiki needs no physical building; Pawaa is less than a mile away. Why look for any other answers? The simplicity of a more visible police force is effective and makes us feel secure as well.
More visible police in Waikiki equals less crime. Period.
