Unacceptable
The people of Hawaii received a warning of an incoming ballistic missile today.
It took 38 minutes before state officials told Hawaiians the scary threat was a false alarm. My initial thoughts are for the poor people on the island that were preparing for the end. This is unacceptable.

In this age of nuclear threats from North Korea, that is totally unacceptable.

I wonder what they will blame that on.

What seems to be really unacceptable is the State of Hawaii had a system that allowed an "oops" and couldn't issue an immediate correction. It also says something about how bad they might be in any real emergency.
But we should rest easy that they have a group studying the problem. The upside is that the guy who pushed the button was quick to fess up. The real downside seems to be the absolute panic. |

Yikes!
I could only imagine the chaos here. Looting would be everywhere, gunfire would be everywhere and then would come the "why did they have to kill my innocent little boy". We cannot allow these kind of mistakes!
