Some Kauai residents unhappy about wall being built by Facebook billionaire

KILAUEA, KAUAI — For years, Kilauea, Kauai resident Gy Hall has enjoyed the view of the ocean and the breeze along Koolau Road. Then, a few weeks ago, a crew started to build a wall which happens to belong to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

“The feeling of it is really oppressive. It’s immense,” Hall said. “It’s really sad that somebody would come in, and buy a huge piece of land and the first thing they do is cut off this view that’s been available and appreciative by the community here for years.”

Hall said the wall extends along Koolau Road, near mile marker 20, and is about six-feet tall. He said its projected length and completion are unclear.

Multiple attempts by TGI to contact Shawn Smith, former Falk Partners manager, who Hall says sold some of the $200 million, 700-plus-acre property to the billionaire, were unsuccessful Friday.

They will feast in air conditioned luxury behind those walls. The rest of us will be told to eat insects, and swelter

The Masque of the Red Death comes to mind.

Maybe he can be a lesson unto himself. What today goes as “liberals” rarely want to be liberal personally; they want to force YOU to be liberal while they stand and frown at you.

Having done business in Hawaii it is a 100% guarantee Zuck has bribed someone in the Kauai county government. They will be found out AFTER completion because the money is flowing right now. When ANY construction project happens on that island the native Hawaiian activists will find a stack of rocks that are “holy sites” and will halt construction they don’t like. He WILL find trouble with the locals eventually. He WILL need 24-7 armed staff and within 10 years I predict he sells the property.

Use a treadmill with some fake scenery. I’m sure someone there at FB can whip something up.

The man is not a nice person. He can be rich as sin but he’ll always be a shmuck.

“If Zuckerberg’s property borders deserve a wall, why doesn’t the American border deserve one?”

Off hand, I would say your chief problem is that you are not an unethical, amoral POS like Zuckerberg is......just sayin.
