No more stupid shit about the guy in a car. It's not relevant to this case, at least in the manner it's currently being discussed.  Please focus more on the trial and the motives behind, and less griping about some other incident or what could / should have happened in said incident.

I have now wasted 15 minutes of my time cleaning up posts, removing excessive comments unrelated to this thread, and also finished banging my head against the wall. 

The only reason this is even an issue is because a mainland LEO was involved.

If this was an off duty HPD officer, and all the facts were exactly the same, it would be an open and shut case.

Yup! 

"Eh this guy is linking me, no can back down now.". Stupid mentality.  No one wins in a fight.  No one.  The Zimmerman trial proved that.

I say again, the Blallah mentality. One Haole no can diss me, especially one mainland Haole, In front my friends???
 lose face, but Garuda is right.

Off topic but...
Just a FYI, IMO your posts are starting to come off like you are stereotyping all locals.  I'm not going to act like that mentality doesn't exist, but you are also using a derogatory description referring to locals.  I'm local and have no issues with haole's, if I did I would have issues being in the service.  With that said, what you are talking about is a two way street.  When I'm around my haole military friends and there are others that don't know me, they come off quite stand-offish/snobbish and I hear them say things like "who brought the local guy" or "what's that guy doing here".  Attitudes change when they find out who I am, but what I am referring to is a predetermined assessment from haole's that all locals act like that or don't like haole's.  I would love to hear how exactly CCW will help with this local mentality too.  If you don't actually have friends or know people personally who act like that in public, you might not understand that some of those guys are out there to start a fight regardless of race.  I think some of it stems from the feeling that they are feared by others, even among peers.

I would feel threatened if I could understand your moke-anese.

^This is why people like Deedy conceal carry.

Forums are also about organized information and guided discussion, not a train wreck of mixed topics filled with irrelevant information.  You can post about it, just make a new thread.

A train wreck of mixed topics and irrelevant info? What a few of us were arguing was a single lucid subject; a  relevant offshoot to the Deedy topic. Summarily deleting our threads was impolite and punitive - THAT is censorship. Knowing our posts were heartfelt and had much thought put into them, you could have respectfully moved the them to a new topic so we and or others could have pursued it - THAT would have been moderation.

So is it just me or is it that just as the Defense starts to present its case the media coverage seemingly has disappeared?  Why no coverage now?

Hart said he'll begin presenting Deedy's defense Wednesday.

Eh Moosed, Lower your voice.  No need to yell.
( JK )

And thanks for the update. 
I didn't realize it was Wednesday either.

You should brush up on your N'etiquette rules:

http://www.networketiquette.net/core_rules_do_not_use_all_caps.html

ALL CAPS is considered YELLING.  Using font styles to add emphasis, better organize your writing, and dress up correspondence is all perfectly appropriate.

It's a common misconception, so I WON'T YELL AT YOU!!   

My bad for not having my N'etiquette up to date.    I'll brush up.

Mods,

This is technically on point and a friendly exchange in jest.

Don't lock the post.     
The defense is just about to begin.
