This is a nightmare.
This is horrible.
I want to be cynical and question how liberals will respond to this but this is a catastrophic death toll in one of the most neglected (and beautiful) corners of the US.
Any comrades in Hawaii?
People need to brace themselves for the worst. They said about 1000 are unaccounted for.

cadaver dogs have only searched 3% of roughly 5 square miles
Literally thirty minutes of warning could have saved just about everyone. Unbelievable this many died to fires within walking distance of the ocean

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the death of Kissinger while he is still unfortunately alive, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
