Someone sent this to me in email. Video is old but there’s conveyance of a message that is significant. I didn’t write the words, but I take stock in the sentiment. Not that I have interest in the argument of BLM or any of that mainland stuff, but the incidents that incite people apply to all scenarios involving all racial backgrounds, not just black/white (e.g.,…

The police murder of George Floyd
Well, title this one documenting history because this, at least for now, will not quickly fade into history. At least not for weeks or months after all the riots and destruction stop across the country.
I guess our country as a whole is not learning from its mistakes despite news media leading illusions of such after each of these tragedies.…

Final Farewell to fallen HPD Officer Kaulike Kalama
Lou and I had an appointment in town to see a financial advisor. On the way back from town, as we were going westbound, on the other side eastbound lanes right by the Vineyard exit there was a line of about 13 police cars parked on the side of the highway, all with blue lights on. They had gotten out of their cars and were lined, as if in single file formation.…

Missing person cold case Guam
While looking for something unrelated to what I ended focusing on, I was on a site called websleuths.com. I came across a post on it that caught my attention of a missing person on Guam since 1987. And no trace of him anywhere in the world since then. And it came to me.
1994 Shooting/shootout
For whatever reason, probably because of the recent OCCC shooting, I went back to one of the incidents that I still remember back in 1994 and made a note of. Since then a lot has changed for Stan Cook, the officer who was shot and survived that shootout. He has a site that he owns that details and historifies his experience. I emailed him to see how he was doing and ask for access to some more private photos… the morgue pics of John Sinapati.…

OCCC escapee shooting – I side with good riddance
The detainee/inmate was being charged with, among other things, attempted murder on a law enforcement officer. Then, after a hearing, he tries to escape from OCCC while being re-processed thru intake. He gets shot in his escape attempt by a corrections guard. He dies.
Again, social media brings out bold opinions of keyboard warriors from all angles of the discussion.…

Horrific pedestrian accident in Kakaako
It was more than just a drunk driving pedestrian accident. To me it is more than DUI and manslaughter charges. It should be three counts of murder plus whatever other charges for fleeing police, reckless driving, and whatever else can be stacked against this motherf***er for the non-fatal injuries. As soon as he went from simple driving while impaired to high speed, swerve across three busy lanes and plowing into the pedestrian triangle, knocking down the traffic pole along with hitting 6 pedestrians, and crashing into another vehicle across the intersection, which all proved criminal intent and using the truck as a deadly weapon, oh no it needs to be murder.…

WTF Guam, is it those “Others” doing this?
I don’t know, maybe over the last 2-3 years I’ve read news on GuamPDN about crime involving slingshots with pieces of rebar being shot. WTF is this?? Is this kind of cruel warfare the work of local Chamorro minds or that of uncivilized ones from “other islands”? I read shit about the Harmon Hemlani apartments area being so dangerous.…

No mercy for criminals
This video caught my attention because of the straight up no mercy shoot those muthafuckas approach the cops had to the two store robbers. Robberies, auto theft, burglaries, crime is out of control. The justice system has no answers and is losing the battle to catch the perps. The court system plays this catch and release game because of prison overcrowding and court case overload.…

Thoughts about the Lisa Au unsolved murder
This is one unsolved murder case in Honolulu that left a lasting impression with me. Maybe because it was the first high profile, sensational, and socially impacting one that I absorbed in the news as a young adult, recently moved to Hawaii at the time. And it had ripple effect ramifications… HPD banned grilled or any other flashing blue lights on subsidized cars except for the authorized strap-on and lock down blue roof light.…
