I guess you missed the very first line of my post that said being homeless in Hawaii would be easy as fuck.

The only thing that will save our fucked up planet is some sort of genocide, or pandemic that kills us all.

This island is way too populated to live like that. It would be super easy on the big island though. Hardly any fish around this island with all the commercial fishers. You would have a harder time here if you are white. Most of the homeless in Hawaii are actual Hawaiians that were forced to leave their family's land by the invasion of American marines. They were only given 1% of their land back after Dole raped their land and forced them into lower education. The schools here were originally made to keep Hawaiians from voting.
The hotel industry has decided that homeless people are an eyesore, so they are buying plane tickets to send mainlanders back to their homes. They also lobbied to make it illegal to sleep outside and forced the local homeless to concentrate to the shittiest area on the island where there is no access to food or water.

Well all those "eyesore" bums you're talking about are the lazy victim-mentality homeless people. They take on the idea that their life is fucked up and they live that way. If I was homeless on that island you would never fucking see me because I would straight up live in the bush. I've never understood why people push shopping carts around dirty ass cities and eat from dumpsters when they could simply learn to live in the wild.

Yea I know, like I said peeps over there are super racist. I met this kid from Boston who was camping out over there and his buddy was murdered by the locals, they ran his head over with a jeep.

You greatly misunderstand. Only the ones that you describe are the ones that the hotels are accommodating(which accounts for less than 10% of our homeless). There are about 10,000 other homeless here that were living out in the country side of the island, never bothering anybody that got swept up and moved to where there is no access to food or water. Before, they had the valley that they had fruit, kalo, and fish they could eat.
That sounds really strange about that guy to be honest. We only have about 10 murders a year here. The tourists in Waikiki get targeted for their wallets, but it is almost always a strong arm robbery. The locals anywhere else wont mess with you if you aren't doing some dumb ass shit. The thing is, tourists always come here doing some dumb shit. People seem to think this is vegas or something and they get their asses beat.

Minimum Wage is a fallacy and joke, what you need is a look at maximum wages...and why they care..?

Lol I guess I should clarify. Whites have a problem with the populace, not the system. It's pretty much a big melting pot here so it's fine for everyone else. Black people get a bad rep here too. Not because they are black, but because most of them are military.

I don't think that's the kind of thing that gets reported, the kid was a transient.

If anybody gets killed out here, they report it in the news every night for the next month, tourists included. Sounds fishy to me. Locals don't really care for rich people either no matter what color you are.

Trump: "I would shut down government over Planned Parenthood"
Same bullshit. The GOP cares nothing for the people and constantly write new laws that impose on our freedoms. All they have to do is defund something(which they do all the time) to effectively kill any chance of the people getting a chance to act against it. You think trump is going to fix the wealth disparity? He will just make it worse.
