  1. So sad to see the native Hawaiian's need to go home now

  2. Fire was started by a Space Laser System… and it is to clear out all people… so that the Native can reclaim their land.

  3. I believe he saved lives since most have been trained to run for the hills. They would have run into the fires having more burned to death.

  4. EN ESPAÑA SIEMPRE HACEN FRAUDE ELECTORAL CON INDRA IGUAL QUE EN USA BIDEN CLINTON Y OBAMA.

  5. FRAUDE EN ESPAÑA NO CONTARON LOS VOTOS PUSIERON LOS DE INDRA COMO HACEN SIEMPRE UN FRAUDE.

  6. MILLONES DE MUERTOS GRAFENADOS.

  7. people aren't stupid! They would have seen the fire and assessed the situation on the best plan.

  8. The sirens would have given the residents a heads up. Then they would have seen the situation.

  9. More "christian" rednecks shooting people for no reason.

  10. I knew heads were going to roll. Now for the Police Chief who ordered front street blockade forcing people to either throw themselves into the sea or burn. Same police chief in charge of the “harvest” in Vegas.

  11. They are now putting up screens around the crime scene so people cannot see inside to cover up their crimes.

  12. Someone who has no disaster online course training could have done better

  13. Why is sad but I bet you now them Chinese going to start buying all that land to make it for the tourists and hotels and much more…

  14. It's a set up on the people and a blood sacrifice pretty much

  15. United States Are the cause, after every thing is said and done, They will populate the area with Caucasians Satan's army 🪖 .,…

  16. In Mexico all these political heads would be dead for failing the dead kids all vaporized in the fire.

  17. How bout sounding the alarm and telling people where to go???

  18. It's ridiculous how those sirens are meant only for tsunami. It should be for ALL disasters and let the people decide what to do.

  19. Praying for the homeless. Especially Las Vegas there are many living under the streets

  20. Should have a system where they all receive a text message, along with the siren. We have that where I live in Australia. With a text message there would have been clear instructions to evacuate due to fire, which would eliminate his tsunami theory.

  21. Remember there was a Panel of "Leadership" that signed of and put this tool in the position.

  22. I hear a tsunami alarm. I run outside and smell smoke. I see people fleeing in the direction of the ocean. I see fire in the distance. Oh my oh my .😮😮😮😮what should i do?

  23. Quit blaming the siren dude, they’re meant for tsunami’s.

    Hawaii test their sirens once a month! That’s 12 test a year. In central Ohio whered I’ve lived 28 years we’ve never had a tornado but we test our sirens 48 times a year in OHIO!!! A state where he have ZERO hurricanes or wildfires.

    You would not hear the sirens unless your windows were open or you were standing outside. I’m like 300ft from a siren and sleep through the weekly test all the time.

    Blame the morons who have live power lines above ground in an area where hurricanes and Wildfires occur. Ohio all new builds electrical wires are underground for this exact reason

  24. The Biden Admin is glad there is a Tropical Storm heading to CA so Media can DISTRACT for the INCOMPETENCY going on in HAWAII!!!!

  25. Pitch a tent ⛺️ and quit belly aching !!!

  26. Thank you Bidenomics! Interest and groceries at a all time high!😂

  27. That guy should go to jail. Who in their right mind will go towards the fire. Stupidest excuse to not sound the sirens.

  28. anything in pacific shoud call typtoon right…

  29. Sacrifical fall guy….come on, people, it's pretty simple. Our governments are criminals at all levels.

  30. He spoke so much BS. I was expecting suicide.

  31. Not only RESIGNING!!!!!! THAT MEN NEED TO BE ARRESTED IMMEDIATELY !!!!!!!!!!!

  32. What we really need is to centralize large Diesel generators with multiple outlets providing electricity. The generators can be positioned in areas where most need it we can run extension cords to multiple locations to provide light and other electrical needs to our ohana in need now, The city and county State of Hawaii Federal government and all branches of military also Red Cross can fund these generators and will provide a faster service to the need our community then we could wait for infrastructure to be rebuilt.

  33. It is a great idea to remind China how long S. Korea, Japan have been U.S. trading partners.
