Crime is So Bad in Hawaii Police Are Urging Beachgoers to Take Their Valuables Into The Ocean
Gateway Pundit ^ | Jun. 12, 2024 | Ben Kew

Authorities in the Hawaiian capital of Honolulu have urged beachgoers to take their valuables into the ocean rather than risk them being stolen by criminals.

In a message posted in the run-up to King Kamehameha I Day, a public holiday in the state of Hawaii, the Honolulu police department said people should instead invest in a “waterproof bag” in which they can keep their valuables safe.

“For those enjoying the beach, don’t leave valuables unattended on the sand,” the message read. “Instead, use a waterproof bag that you can take into the water with you.”

...

Social media users were understandably perplexed.

“How about arresting, prosecuting and locking up criminals?” one user wrote on Instagram.

“People no longer have safe and wonderful weekends in democrat run, crime-ridden cesspools,” added another on the X plaform.

...

the warning comes amid a surger in crime across the island:

“It is a real problem. It’s been getting worse. There’s more and more every week, especially with summer out of school,” said one beach boy.

At a Waikiki Neighborhood Board meeting in April, HPD reported more than 160 thefts in the area that month. Some say they see why police are urging caution.

“You can never be too safe. If you have to take an extra precaution, it’s too easy to do so,” said a beachgoer.

To the surprise of nobody, Hawaii is run almost exclusively by Democrats. The state currently has a Democratic governor, two Democratic Senators and Democratic super majorities across both houses of the Hawaii State Legislature.

My oldest son lives on Hawaii, working for the US Navy, and he wants to leave there so badly. But he has to wait a few more years. When he does leave, he wants to resettle in Tennessee. I told him as long as he stays away from Memphis and Nashville, he should be ok. :-)

Yep, never should have been a state, should be an independent country that allowed us to build our bases there.

Deserved to locals for their choices, deserved to tourists for funding them with their $$.

The independent Republic of Texas was modeled after the US form of government. Article 4 Section 4 of the US Constitution stipulates that states be republics.

Maybe not a great idea in Hawaii or anywhere else.

Crazy Mazie doesn’t have to worry about crime living under the protection of the DC Capitol police ... plus any armed guard she can hire

I live in Franklin TN. We are 22 miles due south of Nashville. I rarely go up there. Different county also.

Check out Williamson and Maury counties. Rutherford County is nice.

I’ve been seeing a ton of wetbacks in the last year.
(Spanish speaking, pointy boot wearing, Modelo drinking, gather in packs getting drunk in public places until HPD tells them to move on, etc...)

Lot’s of scarf wearing submissive wives and hubbies too (hint, hint).
