Another reason to stop public firework sales. No more fireworks.
SO…THEY BURNED DOWN LAHAINA ON PURPOSE AND TOLD THE PEOPLE TO "GT IN THE MIDDLE AND DIE SO WE CAN TAKE YOUR LAND….
That must have been a massive explosion 😢
Heartbreaking. They used Illegal fireworks! There needs to be serious financial penalties for using illegal fireworks. Along with jail terms in repeat offenders. (There were things not shared in this report about just how gruesome this was.).
Had more stuff then a city
Was that a factory in a residential neighborhood? How is that allowed?
The real story is HOW are these illegal aerial fireworks getting into Honolulu county?
Those obese Hawaiians cant run very fast, provly just fell on eachother and crushed everyone..
How many arrests were made??
Who's brainy idea was it to keep massive amounts of fireworks in the house??? That night forever changed the lives of the victims and their families. No need fireworks on new year's; plenty ways to enjoy new year's without the fireworks.
Horrifying! And now have to transfer patients to mainland, pathetic
See what happens people like this so careless
this is a crime scene
Hawaii is full of anger and danger. The benefits of the land are worth it however.
YAH'S PUNISHMENT FOR KEEPING A PEGAN HOLIDAY
It is the last days
The problem arrived when there was a ban on safer fireworks. People bought more illegal stuff. People should learn to be more careful; banning things can make stuff worse.
Thought doctors can not speak about a person's medical condition . Especially not the patients doctor . Right to privacy???
I just heard the news 😢the 3 year old didn’t make it. So heartbreaking 💔.
I’m sure most of them all participated in the illegal firework show since they were all so close to the fireworks explosion. Because if they were next door or across the street they could avoid the casualties but it seems like they were all in the front yard enjoying themselves until the tragic events
Gov Green is Lei-ing it on a bit thick me thinks. SMH
Man is so wreck less
Why are illegal fireworks still available in Hawaii? this is devastating. One of my HS classmates were also a victim of an illegal firework explosion 14 years ago.
Are these locals or people from the mainland
