Midoria is 100% correct. I live in Hawaii. I am absolutely NOT hawaiian. It's laughable to me, and to anyone who lives here to even suggest that all residents are Hawaiian. It is absolutely not the same as a resident of Texas being a Texan, or a Californian. It would be akin to calling people who live in New Mexico, Mexicans.
And to go further, there's "local" and there are people who are residents. Locals can be Hawaiians, or any other nationality or race. Local usually means "born here, raised here", like kama'aina. I'm neither Hawaiian or Local just because I live here. I"m simply live here.
As to the attack warning, the local and state government (hey everyone, the same one you all have in every other state...) goofed. Oh well. But I think most everyone that lives here knew what to do as we have been getting warning notices on how to prepare for months or more. We were dropping our son off at an airport, so we just all huddled in a safe location in the center of the building. I don't know that most of us thought nuclear missile, but the airport is right in the middle of all the military bases. We knew that we were dead center.
