Government is here to help you and is best suited to make decisions for you.

Government credibility must never be questioned...unless it somehow damages Trump.

Does anyone really think that if there is an actual missile launch, that any warning will actually be sent about it before the fact?

Why should it be any different than all other rat enclaves.

Honey, after shoving that loser Obama down our throats, any credibility Hawaii might have had, is long gone.

We were in Maui at that moment and the family took a few minutes to gather to a common location.

As soon as we were all together my first comment was, “This is Bull!”

“Kim has no targeting, no re-entry vehicle, and we would have shot it down.”

Much more likely an errant message.

Of course the family preferred to believe the god of their smart phone, than listen to me.

They weren’t comforted when I later said it would have been here already, before the error was publicly acknowledged.

Who knows what they think of my dismissive attitude now, but I’m happy to have introduced some sanity amid the panic.

At least one person survived BOTH Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Whoever that was, has both incredibly good luck, and incredibly bad luck.

Hawaii would have less than 20 minutes in a scenario involving a SLBM off the coast.

Someone was pushing this theory as the true story behind the Hawaii alert, claiming an actual missile intercept occurred at sea.
