So the story here is that some moron hit the wrong button during a shift change? Really? It's that easy?

Wrong button? Like, what the hell were they doing, that that was even a possibility? Where is this button, and why is it so easily accessible? Aren't there procedures to go through, before they even send out such a warning? What, did the "Don't Touch" sticky note fall off the button? What kind of Mickey Mouse operation are they running over there?

Yeah, I ain't buying that. There are multiple failsafes for these kinda things; it goes through more than one person. Seems like it was done to divert attention in the news, probably from the Uranium One indictments.

First thing that went through my head. The horror of having to pick one's last porn.

Those hardened bunkers your government shelter built should have a stock of porn to make you hardened too!

was wondering about the possible legal ramifications of this....

can the state be facing legal actions for this mistake?
yelling "fire" in a crowded room is illegal....
does intent need to be there or is a false alarm on its own sufficient?
can the people of hawaii sue the state for pain and suffering?

Have to wait for some details to roll out on what some people went through, but 38 minutes is a pretty long time for people to get crazy in a moment of sheer panic. I wouldn't be surprised if some class action lawsuits were incoming.

It felt like it was retracted fairly quickly. Idk I was working at the time, literally just about to make an entry on a house to make a warrant arrest way up in a mountain in the middle of nowhere.

Sent my wife a text saying “I hope you’re safe” and just got back to working.

Everything turned out fine, but yeah it was a pretty inexcusable fuck up.

We will have to consult @panamaican .

He's the big shot lawyer here

Did anyone else read this and think, @Cubo de Sangre had minutes left to live and he comes on to Sherdog to tell us....

That's a ride or die mother fucker.

Well you know, I did first feed my pups and scratch my ass a little.

So there the proposition is out there that the Emergency warning was actually intentional, for the reason that if you're going to test how your population is going to actually react to an incoming missile you want to conduct it as if they think its real. If people acted humanitarian and with dignity e.g. helping people into their houses, giving strangers shelter etc. (which it looks like HI did in general), then it would make sense to sound the warning.

On the other hand if they observed mass panic, murder, or total anarchy, then sounding the alarm wouldn't make much sense with the possibility it could be intercepted. The reasons, while callous are quite Machiavellian if true.

 

[Necromantic]

Fucking LOL at how pathetic Jim Carrey is. Yes, it is a psychic warning you fucking goof. N and S korea are having talks.

Funny how he equates Gomorrah as something bad when Hollywood relishes in all that is Gomorrah.
If Trump was a one man Gomorrah, GLAAD would be ramrodding him with approvals and heil hitlers.



PS I woke up with an hardon today, Tina, and it had your name written all over it.

No chance it happened on accident ... either it really happened an got shot down or it vwas done on purpose to get people to maybe take the NK issue more seriously. It was no accident

I'd like to think a simple mistake was made. Would love to see their procedures manual in order to get a sense of where the breakdown occurred.
