Totally. Really sad how over the years Waipulani Park has become to be known as the dog park, where owners can meet up and let their dogs run free. Used to love to jog over there but between the dogs nipping at my heels and the homeless jumping out of the bushes, not so much if at all. Used to yell at the owners to leash their dogs and called the county to enforce their laws.

Kind of like the folks at Waipulani Park who let their dogs run free and poop all over the lawn. Last month I saw some poor kid step in it.

That's an excellent point, there has to be a history of or evidence of bad behavior to get this response.

Capitulation is never a good thing and being apathetic about our rights only serves those with means.

A...holes, he's a scumbag,
1)its illegal, 2) to minors, 3) he should get a heavy penalty and due time.
What losers support this behaviour? Must be liberal people who don't know the difference between right and wrong, just what they believe in. I am sure things really blossomed in the last eight years with liberal quacks in office and them appointing quack judges. You must really love Washington, pre POTUS... you are in for a big surprise...

Looks like we can all sleep a little bit better now that the real crooks are under wraps. Please don't forget to spay or neuter your pets........or else. Haha

"Regardless of who is being rescued?" Please Mr. Mayor!!!
I would rather share this expense with a fellow tax payer from Maui than pay for constant negligent tourists who consistently are being dragged, lifted, and pulled from danger.

Where are all the comments about "stupid visitors" and "who will pay for the rescue"?
kind of hypocritical

Many jurisdictions got military vehicles and aircraft for free from the 1033 program. (google it) Why not Maui?

Those dogs must have been really aggressive to get such a response. I wonder how many complaints it took to get to this level?

" Ill-equipped" obviously subsumes heart history, overall physical condition, etc. What else could I be referring to? Duhhhhhh.....

Not really fair to say without knowing his physical condition, heart history, etc.

Wats up with the judge?????
Wats up with the jury?????
What is happening to our legal system????
Wats CPS failure????
They are all involved with the cruel torture murder of a young child!

Opps sorry folks but money takes first place over residents beach access. Good luck on getting a survey it won't be done even if you paid for it. The property owner(s) have already negotiated and given a monitary pledge to our elected and oppointed officials.
Go park where the Mayor has recommended its simple.

What an eye opener 64 thousand ×12=768 per year why doesn't the county or state just purchase a helicopter and pay their own people. Seems like a lot of money for the tax payers to absorb year after year.
Wonder who "really" owns this company and their political connections...
Speaking of safety, why not have a brief few minute video on all arriving flights telling tourists before they leave their brains on the plane about the dangers they can encounter on their vacations.

It's not a 'could it?' but rather it must. Money shouldn't supersede state and county laws, and when a resident is violation of these laws they must be held accountable and pressed to adhere.

Could a survey take place? This is a very popular beach and each parking spot is needed. Mahalo.

He does sound rather guilty. I think he has mental health issues.

Some jackass commented about having "compassion". Let the jackass pay for it out of his compassion.

Why doesn't the state attorney general use the correct designation - illegal aliens? Everyone knows it is the illegal alien that Hawaii wants.
These DACAs are not children. They are adults.
DACA illegals are becoming lawyers representing other illegals to stay in the US. If DACA illegal aliens become legal citizens, they can then sponsor to bring their illegal relatives to the US. The number of illegal aliens in the US is closer to 30 million.
Deport the illegal aliens, DACAs, and anchor babies now.

Regrets. Outa town. Would not miss otherwise. Kala is a beauty, inside & out, a sparkler in the firmament.

How do you control greenhouse frogs?

I read originally that this installation was going to be temporary. Now I read that it's going to be permanent. My guess is that it's going to be pretty ugly, too. Why not increase capacity at the power plant a few miles away?

Been parked just north of Maalaea for 45 mins now

Remember that this is one of the so called reps who was listening to obamma and the southern poverty law center and their goons and says that Constitutionalist and Patriot and Christian groups are more of a threat than left wing nuts or islamic terrorist. They were training the DHS with desensitizing targets that were pictures of kids, old people and pregnant women and all white, even though they supplied guns to mexican drug cartels and terrorist groups they continually call for removing our 2a rights,,,
She is part of that swamp
