Anti-vaxxers should reject COVID-19 care<\/p>\n
In response to the 200 demonstrators who view the vaccine-or-test mandate as an infringement on personal freedom (Vaccine-or-test mandates in Hawaii spur protest rally, Star-Advertiser, Aug. 10): I love your rally cry, Its our body, Its our choice, and especially, Live free or die.<\/p>\n
So when you contract the COVID-19 delta variant, please do just that. Stay home and gasp for air. Embrace your freedom. Do not go to the hospital, burden our health care system or become a slave to the pharmaceutical industry that could save your life. You want natural immunity? Looks like you prefer natural selection.<\/p>\n

Governors hypocritical on freedom of choice<\/p>\n
When anti-vaxxers claim, My body, my choice, how many also would ban birth control and abortions? Those people only expose their hypocrisy.<\/p>\n
We see this on the national scale when governors say they wont force vaccinations and masking to preserve freedom of choice, but are willing to ban masking and vaccinations using the same reason. This is insanity.<\/p>\n

Trim weeds near canal along Kalakaua Avenue<\/p>\n
With hurricane season here, its sad to see the neglect on cutting the grass and weeds along the canal that runs parallel to Kalakaua Avenue between King and Philip streets.<\/p>\n
Years ago that canal overflowed when it rained for more than 30 days, and the grass was low. Today it is the same height as the sidewalk and you cant see the riverbed. Can that be cleared before a disaster arises and floods those living next to it?<\/p>\n

Crowds at Lanikai Beach driving out the locals<\/p>\n
Build another road in and out and a parking lot in Lanikai (Protect access to Hawaiis trails, beaches, Star-Advertiser, Island Voices, Aug. 4)?<\/p>\n
Already Lanikai Beach is so full of tourist groups that some residents dont even swim there when the water gets too murky.<\/p>\n
These reckless suggestions are beyond ridiculous. We need to control access to that beach, not encourage it.<\/p>\n
