China might get that anyway, the way things are going. Would it surprise anyone to hear that Biden sells Hawaii to China? I just heard about some mystery corporation buying up everything around San Francisco, so it wouldn’t surprise me in the least.

Hawaii's battles over water rights began in the 1850's between plantation owner's use of the water for irrigation purposes, and the natives of the islands. That was still when Hawaii had a monarchy.

While doing a search on the subject, I came across this article from 2021, which discusses a book published that covers the problems with water rights on Maui...so the water rights issue was still a problem even in modern times.

Chad Blair: How Water In Hawaii Became A Matter Of Public Trust: A new book on legal fights in West Maui details the complicated but critical role of management of the precious resource.

If somebody throws a tin can on his yard, the FBI will send 25 agents to investigate.

"Molten Metal next to Intact Trees"

This anomaly was common with the Paradise Fire. I don't believe the DEW conspiracy theories, but I've yet to read one reasonable explanation as to how this happens.

I was caught in the Bastrop fire in 2011. I've seen firsthand that yeah. Wildfires burn trees. Duh.

So how? How can one explain this...

The Uvalde creep was the one that came to mind.

Total effeminacy.

“Have a word with Manual.”
Probably not just a word, but WORDS—or even SWORDS!
Equity: the equal sharing of MISERY!

People, and everything they do is mere cannon fodder for the neo-Marxist mind. The 9th circle of hell awaits.

the bizzarre reference to "equity" revealed the motive that it was an ethnic/racist hate crime with intent to cause harm by Manuel

evidently Manuel thought it would be "equity" for whitey Howoulies to burn up in the wildfire

Are you referring to the moron who ran the Hawaii Department of Emergency Services of the Hindia-American council person in Seattle.

Oh, my mistake, my grandson just told me her late name is not Dipshit, it is Dikshit.

Anyone familiar with Mazie Hirono (US Sen HI ) would totally understand this insane way of thinking.
