If I want to spend time cooped up on islands full of people who hate me, it’s a much shorter flight to pretty much anywhere in the Caribbean.

“If I want to spend time cooped up on islands full of people who hate me, it’s a much shorter flight to pretty much anywhere in the Caribbean.”

That attitude in Hawaii doesn’t get much publicity; if not for servicemen I know I would never have guessed they were like that. Then again, everything I know about Hawaii I learned from Magnum PI...

Last time I went over there in 2001, everyone was advised to not leave Honolulu because of all of the crime on the north end of the island. A lot of people were having stuff stolen out of their rental cars, i.e. purses, cameras.

We went on a short excursion and we approached in a McDonalds by some islander thugs, who then followed us almost back to Honolulu.

If I want to get mugged, I can go to Atlanta, about 40 miles away...I don't need to go all the way to the mid-Pacific for it.

The dems can have Hawaii, but if conservatives stop vacationing there, it might as well be Detroit.
