How do you go on vacation and enjoy yourself when you know just down the road people are searching through ashes for loved ones? How can anyone be so awful??
The locals are saying to come to Maui to support the economy, which supports the victims, otherwise they will have to rely on the government.
How do you do anything without seeming awful? Should I not laugh because there is war in Ukraine? Not vacation because of wildfires in Texas? There are disasters everywhere. Some not even natural. How do you even smile when people can’t even visit or live in Florida or other states because they may not fit an agenda 🌈🤷♂️. So. I will vacation where I want. Not worry about who is suffering down the road because someone somewhere is always suffering. Is this your first time in America or even on the planet? 👽
I agree man. People lack self awareness. Anyone going there specifically Lahaina as a tourist is not a person I respect.
they are AMERICANS THATS HOW...
@@dasa7921so are Hawaiians 💀
I just came back from Hawaii with my husband and 3 year old. I do agree that no tourists should be traveling to Lahaina right now.
That would just kill the entire economy. Lahaina is closed but Maui is open.

@@olivaredito3437that's where your wrong. Us Hawaiians NEVER rely on the government cause look at what happened with the aftermath. Government is nowhere to be found to help us and our family's build back. We don't need tourism and only us locals understand that.
@@chasemanatad3051you sound stupid asf
When I first visited Maui in the 1970’s, they were just building the Sheraton, up the beach by Lahaina. Returning in the ‘80’s, the beach there was unrecognizable due to all of the resort hotels built up, bringing in dollars for sure, but even then, bringing frustration to native families being impacted by the overdevelopment and the draw on resources.
We wouldn’t think of going to Maui at this time. We are sending money to the Red Cross for the Maui Fire Victims and to the Maui Humane Society, and looking to see how much more we can send soon.
Please. Do not go to Lahaina and do no take pictures of what is now holy ground containing the remains of human beings. Enough pictures have been taken by the media. Offer the respect, help, and kindness that you would want shown to your family trying to survive through a tragedy like this.
Do NOT donate to Red Cross! They are a scam!!
The Red Cross and FEMA are not helping Lahaina… do not send them any money. Listen to what the locals are saying.
Agree but also agree that 10 percent is a lot of money for Red Cross administration fees and not much help. Locals are going to need houses replaced but still not sure who is best to donate for that cause but lots of donations now it will help for donations to continue after the dust settles. Mahalo
😢
@PollyAlice2000- The Sheraton was built in 1963, not the 1970's.
There is PLENTY to see on Maui without bothering people in Lahaina. Stay away from Lahaina and enjoy the rest of the island, its that simple...
Perhaps Maui needs to be less dependent on Tourism.
Likely its economy would collapse without tourism rather than finding another industry.
Doing what?
@@peterl708 very good question, I believe if we keep asking we might find the answers... COVID showed us that the virtual work market is wide open and in need of qualified workers....Maui on Tourism Like a Junkie be on Heroine...Time to break the cycle...it won't be easy...but this dependency on tourism is the road to genocide for the full blooded Hawaiian...
@@colorado841 is there a pathway away from such dependency?
@@YishEyeYo I wouldn't know. If there was another path to making money I suspect a lot of people would be following it already.
Jason is a class act. I have so much empathy for these very proud and hard working people. The BS banning natives is unlawful. All commerce should stop. And FEMA money must make these people whole
It's a US state. I understand people feeling emotional, but no-one has the right to tell anyone to 'keep out' except the government.
F the government. They don't care about ANY OF US! Anyone has the right to say leave me alone while I mourn, you have no respect.
Wow really? You white mf’s literally have no respect..if we start killing you mf’s than your listen to someone
Agreed. I understand the resentment due to history. I also hear "we are not Americans" along with "where is the government?"

@@phillipbanes5484 because I can?
This story is saying the fire was on August 9th. It was on August 8th in the afternoon.
Yup.
Cancelled my trip and won't be going to Maui again. Love that Jason Momoa tells everyone to stay away from Maui, yall can blame him.

It’s common sense to keep tourist out of Lahaina 100% agree be but respectful, it goes both ways, it will take time but Lahaina and the people will need time to heal. Wish you guys the best we ❤ Maui and the people there

It's tourism that built Lahaina town, and it's tourism that's going to build it back strong.
It's tourism that saved the Hawaiian culture.
I remember when I was a second grader, when they were teaching the Hawaiian culture in our schools. But the following year, they removed the teaching of the Hawaiian culture from our curriculum. It wasn't until I was in my early 20s that tourism started to grow once again, and it was the tourists that wanted to know more about the Hawaiian culture and to experience the Aloha Spirit of its people.
It's my opinion that it was tourism that saved the Hawaiian culture and helped it to thrive once again. With tourism, the economy grew, created many new jobs, and kept many of our children from moving away.
Let's face it, Maui needs tourism to survive; otherwise, Maui will die.
I grew up on Maui in the early fifties. It was wonderful to have experienced island life back then, but times have changed. Maui is truly a tropical paradise and it will remain to be that paradise for all who live there, and visit.
Fuvk that. Hawaiians will bring it back strong! ✊🏾
@AtortAerials Yeah sure, since you made the statement, and instead of all the talk, what is your plan?
Get real, reality says that we Hawaiians can't do this alone.
@@islandboy50 Hawaiians can do it alone if government helped and did right by them. It's a mess and Hawaiians always seem to get the short end of stuck it's sad!
Lahaina is one town im proud to visit and i will always remember it as a beautiful town ❤️ please respect the locals and there families
Go to Hawaii, spent money, support the economy. Just don't be a jerkass and try to see the devastation in Lahaina. Treat people with the respect you would want, even if they are less respectful to you. You don't know what they have experienced. At least, they will have a good impression of you, and you won't be adding to the negativity that is endemic in American society now.
Agree we’ve always had some tourist and we appreciate the one who aren’t jerkass but with the over tourism by our failed government the amount of jerkass ones goes up to levels where the good ones are too often lumped in with the jerkass ones but that’s is the fault of our local government not the good visitors. Mahalo
@@HawaiiSustainable Over Tourism is a new term to me. I used to live in a heavily touristed location, Door County in Wisconsin, by the way, so I think I understand where you are coming from. The place has been taken over by tourists and tourist oriented businesses, and all the scenic locations are condoed to death. I left. There are more tourists now because the economy is better, and people have more money. Just remember also that everyone in Hawaii is from someplace else, and people throughout history have resented newcomers for one reason or another. One answer is a visitor lottery system that regulates the number of tourists. Tourists will come, and the local government (you the people) have to make sure that enough resources are available for everyone. It is not easy. It takes a lot of people to overcome bags of money, but it can be done. Organize, vote, and become involved in your own future. Good Luck.
Some Hawaiians who live in Kauai to me about how Hawaiians who live in Oahu treated them. Real respectful bunch.
Agree, help resident first, recover body first before tourist needs. Tourist needs to give Maui time to heal and recover first
Many tourists were killed too.

Please elaborate what your post means. Should tourists stop visiting Maui???
At the end the woman said. "Maui. We know who helped, who didn't and who got in the way". Does this mean they aren't going to vote democrat again?
Aloha 🌺
Why are we asking the tourist to not come ?
Careful what you say.
Mahalo 💕🤙
I hope things improve soon for everyone that lost property, family and friends. It is a bit, tiring to hear self-appointed, officious people speaking for everyone though.
We are cancelling our trip to Maui
Don't do that. Every dollar that leaves maui is a dollar less for a local family. Locals rely on tourism as their source of income and well-being.
Please don't cancel your trip. They welcome the tourism but are asking people to not go to Lahina. There is nothing but ash in Lahina. It's like someone going to your neighborhood after a tragic event. You can visit just stay away from Lahina.
@@mcavoltstay off our fucking land
I am born and raised generations or I wouldn’t be here either if it wasn’t in my blood. The police chief in the beginning was the watch commander during the Vegas mass shooting. The governor and mayor if not in on it with big developers are at most incompetent. Two towns tolerated tourist one is now ashes. The government never should have allowed the economy to be so tourist dependent, it’s not reliable and the majority of the income goes out of state to Black Rock and other trillionaire funds while only giving locals jobs like that old SNL sketch with the Rock working at a hotel.
Just avoid west Maui. Avoid Lahaina
Kia ora to Lahaina Maui Hawaiian families ...from Aotearoa, New Zealand Northland KVF...
Respect Western area of Maui, survivors of families who perished in the fires asking Tourist to stay out of these areas, dont take photos of destroyed homes, dont take photos of ocean where families died in the water trying to flee the fires, these areas shouldnt be entered, its a desecration to the spiritual connection these areas hold, & should not be disturbed until the families recover the remains of their loved ones who perished... please respect these areas, respect their families, respect their dead relatives...
❤❤❤
Resentment? Tourists didn't cause this fire. Multiple levels of government and employee incompetence did. Don't want tourists? Fine with us. We've always treated all with respect in HI, but plainly it doesn't matter. We'll do as requested and stay away, forever if necessary, as the world is a big place with plenty to see. Glad to see millions see it as we do and likewise have acknowledged the tourist "resentment" and hate, and also are saying far away. Good luck.
Lol you speak for ALL visitors? Gtfoh.... If ur loved ones burned in ur town would u like tourists driving thru your neighborhood to get to the burn zone to take pictures? The "tourist keep out" sign was set up at the one entry/exit roadway INTO their neighborhood.
Yes, as you would resent visitors that come to witness your total devastation IN YOUR community. Don't be so dense. Time and a place for tourists in Lahaina, right now, ain't the time nor place.
@@katrina3560 No, the tourist hate is far broader than “Lahaina,” nor is it limited to “right now.” It’s been plain for quite some time now visitors are hated haoles. Even non-native haoles who live on the islands throw that around as if they are kamaaina. So be it. Tens of millions are listening, and they may never come back to any island, so you won’t have to “resent visitors” any longer.
@@jamesjoyce2528 I don't agree with your perspective/opinion.
@jamesjoyce2528 yeah colonists took resources, land and everything in between, no ships of goods or building materials were sent, China would've if it was part of its territory.
I totally understand people wanting tourists to stay away but after 911 here in nyc the flood gates opened wide for ALL TO SEEE and everybody came!

WHERE ARE THE 2,000 - MISSING LAHAINA-SCHOOL-CHILDREN. WHERE ARE THOSE 2,000 - CHILDREN? 'WHERE' ARE THEY???
"visit, spend, go home" - they are telling you how to spend your money - such of lack of empathy for all the work and saving to be able to reach Hawaii - and then they ask for your empathy.
Sure, I feel sorry for all the people that suffer because of the fires and I am willing to help to donate and help those people recover right until the moment when you hear the hate and the lack of empathy for your own work and life.
Do you often make horrific events all about you? There are hundreds of people missing and over 100 confirmed dead. A lot of these people don't even know if they're family is still alive but you want them to worry about hurting someones feelings? 🙄 How self-centered and awful do you have to be to tell someone they should have empathy for someones vacation being ruined when they've lost everything they own?
@@princessbuttercup8954 wrote "to tell someone they should have empathy for someones vacation being ruined when they've lost everything they own". Ok. You got to the core of it. Someone "lost everything they own" and perhaps even more, the loves ones. They have the option to mourn in silence. They have the option to ask to be undisturbed. That's understandable. They could also become insane temporarily due to tragedy and hurt somebody. That is also understandable. But beyond this, them keeping their logical reasoning intact and sanity do they have the right to hurt other people under the excuse that they have been terribly hurt ? What about the spoke person who did not directly been hit by the tragedy. Do they have the right to hurt other people ?
Because this is not about the people who where directly hurt. This is about the spoke person.
Keep in mind that I did not plan any vacation to Maui. But the messages that come from there really sting even if you have nothing to do with it.
Sure I would be sympathetic to the tragedy and I would donate and try to help right until the moment I hear "we don't care about you and your vacations". If you don't care about me why should I care about you?
Can you just shut up and don't mention that you don't care about me ?
Do you want us to be humble and accept that we were wrong and perhaps never see or hear from us again ?
@@princessbuttercup8954 "Do you often make horrific events all about you?". Horrific events that happened in Maui is not about me. "Visit spend go home" is about me as a potential tourist.
If people from Maui think I am "self-centered and awful", well, thank you for letting me know.
Let's put in Lahaina People shoes and be empathic, all Hawaii is available yet People go to Lahaina to take pictures of the destruction like is an atraction 💔💔💔
@@cindymora6714 Yeah, there are people like that. Do you think this represent o majority of people? How can you expect empathy from the people who you trash and tell how awful they are ?
Where are the children????
I'll respect their wishes and never go back there.
We don’t care
Seems like we should give it a few years before going back to Maui. Many locals don’t seem to want tourists back. We should respect that. There are other beautiful places like Costa Rica.
The democrat gov alreasy ruined the economy during too long of a covid lockdown! Now this. These homeless need tourism jobs to get back on their feet. The fire is out. Need to clean up all that mess starting Oct 1. They should alreasy start d8scussing plans in rebuilding front street and planting new trees
I totally disagree. If all tourists avoided Maui the 😢economy will be non-existant and would not recover in our lifetime. Maui is open, just not Lahaina.
The thousands of families that work in the tourism industry want tourists back. These are local families who cannot live without their jobs in that industry.
It's not locals vs tourists. Anyone that pushes away tourism is willingly hurting other locals.
@@MauiKeiki22stfu no it’s not stay away from us we don’t want you here anymore

Ka’anapali is open in Honokawai is open there is never been a better time to come to Maui. Even on the Westside Lahaina is a small part of the island and now there is no one here is a perfect time to come come and enjoy spend your hard earned money so we can recover faster.
When we went to Hawaii I thought we were going to a us state, in interviews the local people have said over and over they are not American. That we occupy the islands. I didn’t know. They advertise for tourist it’s a tourist destination as a people they need to do better about letting people know that they don’t want us there. We will stay away. How many tourist on their vacation of a life time died. The line of cars on front street was tourist trying to escape. A local interview quote. It was just a bunch of tourist they were pulling them out of the water.
Yea sure you didn’t..

They already do!@@olivaredito3437
The town of Lahaina should not have to rely on tourism during this time - government should be helping citizens rebuild- something is definitely wrong here
"Why are we the ones doing this?"
Because you are righteous.
Tourist! Give them space! If you not there to check on your love ones stay away and let them get their town together 🗣️

Damn😢 sending positive energy 🙏🏿
Why is there no one helping Lahaina rebuild I Hawaii.
Prayers for the Hawaiian people in that area, and hopefully they will find a place to live soon.
Prayers will bring nothing, these people need ships of goods and building materials not prayers.
Feelings and prayers don't fix problems.
Some of us know that prayers are extremely powerful. I’ll continue to pray, and continue to give to charities helping.
John 9:31
“Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.”
How could people snorkel when the whole area is shutdown and not allowed? These people are full of lies.
Tourism is more important than residents, youll see.
This is so horrible. All I hear happening after that fact is also horrible. People do need to stay out. There is no where. That would want people on thier door steps either.
When they are standing in the unemployment line soon…they will realize…God bless those who died
The locals are saying to come to Maui to support the economy, which supports the victims, otherwise they will have to rely on the government.
Maybe keep tourists away. But bring warriors to occupy or say goodbye to Lahaina. They already have plans to build and they will not stop.
You ought to not knock tourists. WE didn't make the fires. We are very sorry for your awful troubles. Do NOT blame us.
Now after 7 weeks, the people want tourist to come. Maui depends on tourist money to survive. Residents say come.
I wanna hear what Rock band Pepper has to say about this.
It’s a shame tourists need to be told to stay away from Lahaina. Where is common sense? Where is decency?
Tourism is the life blood of Maui. Hawaiians, don’t bite the hand that feeds you.
Not just Maui but all the Islands.
We don’t care about your money stay off our land for good..
The locals are saying to come to Maui to support the economy, which supports the victims, otherwise they will have to rely on the government.
Totally understandable, but respect works both ways. People who are home to the island come first. And I understand why. I agree. And I respect it. I know now is not the time. People are grieving. I can see the pain Hawaiian people feel and prayers to all. Many in the past week have shown by how they talk that they dont want tourists. And Im sure unfortunately, they will lose a lot of business when people are still willing to help out. Ive noticed many have seen what I see, not feeling welcomed. But it isnt my land, it's the land of Hawaii and I respect the spirit of Hawaii and the people. I just know that tourism probably will drop a lot.
❤❤❤
I agree Ezekiel. We can all wish recovery for Lahaina families, and respect the grief that so many are going through.
After hearing and reading so much hostility toward non-Hawaiians, I would not feel comfortable traveling there again.
Report on the 183 bodies that floated up on the island of Lanai. They were whole bodies. Who are they? The parents of the children? Their dead bodies floated through shark ridden waters?????? You public officials will be found out and it death penalty for crimes against humanity. GITMO
Its not true. I have family in Lana'i They said its just bad rumors.
I have mixed feeling about tourism in Hawaii in general. The people are rude but need you to spend money there.

Maui needs tourist to survive and recover, they can't do that if they have no income. The only place they don't want people in is the fire zone.
People tourist or anyone who does not have business in Lahaina please stay out!! Our roads will not handle all the cars when we open up on October 8! Now that we lost our town we literally have 1 way in and 1 way out we have traffic now with just our people on the road . Please stay away from Lahaina
Smiling people saying "we are here for you"
have history in Hawaii
what part of "beat it " dont you understand
It’s all about water!
I watched a farmer tell us she was proud they did not use too much water to put out the fire so she can keep her farm running.
Jason posting that stuff, well dude maybe you give some of your money to the tourist industry that makes up 80%.
That woman and her family lol, tourist is what keeps you the 10th generation on an island that literally nothing else except tourism.
This is completely unacceptable! These people will Never be the same. And what the authorities are doing Which is Nothing. It’s complete BS! God be with the true people of Lahaina.
Can’t you blame anyone for not wanting dumb tourists around healing from something like that!?
They want to buy their properties don't sell
Justice for Lahaina! Say their names!
Justice for Lahaina! Say their names! Proposing to organize march Justice for Lahaina! Say their names! by Mayor's Office Saturday September 2nd. 9am!

They Don't Listen time to act.
It’s very very sad what has happened. Can’t say it was a good feeling that some locals would be mean to tourists before the fires.. There’s a bigger picture before the fires. I’m not saying who is right locals or tourists but resentment is terrible. Locals and tourists died in those fires. Everybody matters. I don’t think people should vacation on Maui now. Healing and recovery first. Please have respect for all .that’s the biggest problem in the world. If you can’t see that there’s no hope for the
He future
The fires were devastating to all mankind …. I hope maui and it’s people recover and suffering stops…. Only love and respect mends broken hearts and lives.
THE ONLY REASON ANYONE SHOULD TRAVEL TO HAWAII IS TO HELP THE ISSUE
it is the same attitude, that locals have more rights to go surfing than tourists.
$700 for you and be thankful. You’re breaking into our Ukraine/Illegal Migrant Funds! Blue no matter who 2024 bby! I’ll be vacationing to Maui in February, can’t wait. 🏳️🌈
Yea and we’ll have something waiting for you white boy ..

Sorry, but those are not appropriate shoes to wear with a suit, current fashion trends notwithstanding.
Respect th community & leave them alone to deal with there grief,heartache,displacement as a community. Empathy, compassion, sympathy, RESPECT is what they need
❤
I agree nobody from the mainland should go to the Hawaiian islands..tourist revenue should stop completely, because in a year or so all the Hawaiian natives will cry there’s no money and they need more government help and subsidy. The islands are a poor state, that thrives on tourism..nothing much else out there..that’s why I moved to mainland
Good don’t come back we don’t want you here

Police set up a roadblock on the ONLY ESCAPE ROUTE from Lahaina.
HI State Senators must make it illegal for tour operators and busy body tourists to visit Lahaina, at least for the next 2 years to give families their privacy.
Soooo, I’m trying to figure out the story behind this fire?
Rich people never get hurt
I wish they do, so the world can be balanced.
They are absolutely right to stop tourists coming in this is their real lives n they have lost real people,stay away n let these people grieve n re-build.People should not have to be told that.
Walls are going up for
Whoever in charge of FEMA next time AIR RAID SIRENS
Open to colonist developers and their wall street friends. No ships of goods or building materials sent to the island.

Can someone address the disturbing observations that are affecting the survivors of the fire, inadequacies of getting help, providing shelter, getting answers. Something fishy is happening in Lahaina and agencies are not helping all people who need assistance
Be careful what you wish for.
Don’t come back than..we literally don’t care nor like you mf’s
Hey, we dont we redirect some aide here????
I'm so happy that Hawaii is making tourism money but even though Maui is being visited the scorched earth of Lahaina is still and active recovery town and a sacred area where loved ones are lost forever. I'm so sad. However, I'm so proud of the indigenous people who belong to their land are protecting their land, history, people and legacy. As with native Americans did with their land protection, I wonder if they can apply for indigenous citizens protection from the corporate greedy buttheads and have their own rights declared to this land/town. There should be some guidance from your mayor, Senator and Governor to pass a bill for this very meaningful rights to protect your land, life, legacy, history and maintain the Hawaiian way of life which is so beautiful. This is without question your land and you need to demand that everyone by law needs to understand and respect it! I pray that Hawaii and the federal government and local government will do exactly what you need to carry on with this type of protection and love that Hawaiian's people deserve. You beautiful people should have a meeting and as of now I believe that there should be free legal services to introduce this issue to your politicians to make this the law of the people's land. Can anyone else chime in as to how this can happen or if this is happening on any level?
My people our people your people... Dear God stop these evil men
Boycott Hawaii. It is a place of people gone mad with hate.
Wildfire or DEW?
