There is something about the Hawaiian Islands and Locals

     In Hawai'i there are 1,374,810 people and this was taken in 2011.  There are 4 major islands, Kaua'i, O'ahu, being the most populated, Maui, and Hawai'i or the Big Island.  Each year everyone awaits and recollects the previous years agenda on the news, which is our local news, and only to find some have far exceeded local expectations on accomplishing what they want out of the new year and their New Year's resolution made out the previous year.  There are three local main stations for this to occur and get your message across to others and gain some momentum votes on who is who in the world of news and sports.  The 4 main channels are KITV4 news, under ABC, KHON2 news under NBC, Hawai'i News Now under CBS, and lastly there is ESPN.

     For example, the Boston Marathon 2013 bombing on two separate locations was a smash hit on local news and all over the nations.  The suspects were known from the earlier on of its investigation and it was well intended for viewers to be informed of what was going on in the news and around the nation.  Every eye was on the news and captured the attention of some of the viewers also in the sport of running and locally also.  Honolulu Marathon 2013 another popular name locally for the runners and world wide runners also were informed of the events and news updates on what was happening in Boston.  About the only concern most people saw was heightened security at Airports and more security needed at these type of events, include Honolulu Marathon as a target for terroristic threats, not too far fetched for one resident to take precautionary notes on the situation.  I do not believe they are blowing this cover story out of proportion. They view this as a national incident and not as a world incident or where diplomatic immunity may be granted to some dignitaries, such as a Barak Obama when he's here in Hawai'i to visit.
    
     FBI made quick work of picking suspects for the bombing and wasted no time in implementing strategies to prevent future bombings on our homeland.  I just felt the military style of surveillance was important enough to apply its warlike tactics onto local events and even if it was only for 2 separated bombing locations and very much an isolated event. One can see an influence of military control, the incident need not spread any further and stopped there, where it happened. So much for the notion of gun control laws, what about C4 or nuclear war head control laws within the nation? I think it is relevant to note that a case as this comes with severe punishment for anyone who violates these rules and laws. What ever they're being called, wimps or no wimps, U.S.A. and protecting our nation and the military was at the forefront of this investigation on first glance.  FBI was a little lower in surveillance on our nations security mark. We feel safer as a nation putting things into perspective and knowing we're protected from foreign invasion as well as internal civil disobedience being outlawed and incarcerate anyone who violates these laws. This was the whole idea behind the investigation.

     Which side are you on? What do you do? How do you view events and circumstances that shape our world? What position do you take on something as this event? How do you feel about violence? Love? Hate? War? From a local perspective from Hawai'i, and to the rest of the nation and the world, what is your stance on this topic?
