Huge Tent City in Hawaii, Big Deal

Drudge links to a story at StarAdvertiser.com with the headline Huge homeless tent city takes root in Hawaii… wherein readers can find this information, which is the sub-headline to the story.

Homeless camps cover 50 acres, from Waipio Point, around Middle Loch to Pearl City

Big deal.  There have been tent cities in Hawaii for years.  When I was stationed at Pearl, from 1980 through 1984, there were tent cities on every island I visited, and the individuals living within the tent cities were more free than almost every other individual living in Hawaii at that time.

The remainder of the “huge tent city” story is all fluff, mentioning Pastor Joe Hunkin’s pastoral work, Duane “Dog” Chapman’s bounty hunting island adventures, and an inane comment from some flunky from Oahu’s Affordable Housing and Homeless Alliance.

Huge tent city in Hawaii, big deal.
