Would a box cutter that you break off the blade to get to the sharper part be considered an assault box cutter should they limit the number of break aways to under 3 ?

There’s a big homeless problem in Honolulu and the men in blue won’t do anything. Hawaii is blue big time.

Plus many box cutters have a multi-blade magazine. It’s time we lobby Congress for box-cutter free zones in all public places.

Sure they do but it’s like stemming the tide——they just move elsewhere.

Honolulu is full of dangerous crazy “homeless” people. You have to careful walking in a lot of parts of the city. My wife was assaulted a few months on Alakea Street (in the financial district) by a crazy homeless person at 5 p.m. as she was leaving work. Fortunately she was not seriously hurt. But security and police said there is not much they can do. With crazy people they can’t hold them and they are right back on the streets in 24 hours.

Knife assaults like these are starting to pop up almost every day.

I knew of a very wayward girl who thought she was some hippie libtard of the modern era. She and many of her friends went to Hawaii because it was the go to destination to do whatever one feels (think of it as a flash mob migration). How they got the money who knows? They just squat all over,drink beer and smoke pot on mountaintops. This is all documented on their lovely social media. We pretty much lost another state for good. How many traditional American states will be on the flag in 20 years? Knowing what we know now, we should have just given Hawaii to Japan. It is all rather disgraceful.

Too busy handing out speeding tickets the moment you go 1 mph past their ludicrously low speed limits.

But yeah, there's a lot of homeless derelicts sleeping on the beaches. Makes you wonder how they all got there.

There are laws against vagrancy. Enforce them and that will solve a big part of the problem. I say put them all in a metal warehouse with heat(in cold areas). Give them each a pint of the hard stuff in a plastic container. It’s legal. Put that warehouse on the edge of town-too far to walk. Where it’s legal give them marijuana in the daytime. It’s cheaper than social services.

Hawaii is one of the top states in the US regarding homelessness and drug addiction.
