State of Hawaii will send out a correction message as soon as possible."

Why not send it out NOW! Nah! "Let's wait until the folks are freaking out beyond control!" Frigidiots!

Hilo resident here. At 8:06 life was held in the balance.

For 40 minutes, we were left in suspense about the authenticity of this cell phone alert.

40 minutes.

No radio coverage that I could find. No internet message. No cell phone follow-up.

40 minutes.

One-party Democrat control since 1954 - 64 years.

No one will be fired - the truth will never be known.

That is all.

Wonder if this was deliberate, so they could blame Trump?

Back in the 1970’s the emergency alert was sent out to all radio and television stations in the country on a Saturday morning with some stations taking it as true and others waiting for more info.

Automation was not the norm in radio back then so real people made decisions based on the info sent out by the wire services.

There were some scary moments.

I was Command & Control in AF for 24 years and this stuff happens perodically during exercises. I saw it happen twice, one time Reagen was woken and the other time the White House Sit Room had the sense to double check it before waking him again. Truth is I would rather get a false alarm than not get a warning during a real threat because of a fear of making a false alarm by the guy responsible

Where are you going to hide on an island when the blast radius is about twice the size of your land mass? I’m going there in April. My Plan ... when the alert goes off, find the nearest bar and order a double. Might as well go happy.

Good thing this was State, not Federal.

The President would at this very moment be undergoing being pilloried, castigated and beaten to a pulp every minute for the next three days...then impeachment would be called for.

But since the leftist media and the Swamp are forever playing or NOT playing the race card, not a hair of anyone in charge in the Hawaiian government will be seriously touched in regards to this missile incident.

All the news outlets here are chanting that it’s time for Trump to DO SOMETHING. I think this was a planned public relations event, with pre-planned statements of outrage.

As stated above in a 100% Dem state we’ll never know who planned this.
