HOMELESS IN WAIKIKI - PRETEXT VIGNETTES





Last night, there comes a couple she apparently drunk as a skunk. He is trying to hold her upright and help her walk instead of carrying her. He lets her go and she with all the talent of a professional stunt woman, apparently falls flat on her face. The gentleman comes over to me and Lying Leonard to ask where he is and tells us he is her brother and wants to call a cab. This is evidenced by his cell phone being opened (flip model). I tell him to tell the cab company he is at the Waikiki Sub - Station. At this point I leave not wanting to be a part of what I consider to be very bad acting with a prat fall Charlie Chaplin would be envious of. When I return the gentleman is stooped down by the lady who apparently is sobering herself by lying on the ground where she fell. He comes over again and lets us know he has no intention of piggybacking his sister. I agree this is a bad idea, having seen a drunk being given a piggyback ride and falling backward hitting her head with that sickening clack heads make. Worse, when they are hollow. After awhile she gets up and walks quite well for one who was minutes ago steady as "wavy gravy". During all this I consider they must have passed at least a couple of taxis on their way to the beach, the nearest bars being, Dukes, or the new Margaritaville joint. Not to mention the ease with which one can hail a cab from the sidewalk on Kalakaua at this location.




FROM HPD BOYS IN BLUE 11/29/2008

AWAKE PEOPLE APPRECIATE KINDNESS MORE THAT THOSE THAT MAY BE DEEP IN THE LITTLE SLEEP AND RESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCES BRING THEM. YOU THINK!


(ACT 1)
WHILE ENJOYING THE LITTLE SLEEP POSSIBLE IN DISTURBING & CHALLENGING CONDITIONS, I AM AWAKENED BY WHAT SEEMS TO BE A USUAL GROUP OF REVELERS. I TELL AN AQUAINTENCE THAT THERE IS A SET - UP ATTACHED TO THIS ONE. HE SOON LEAVES. I AWAKEN AGAIN AND NOTICE THE REVELERS ARE STILL IN ATTENDANCE AND A POLICEMAN HAS STRATEGICALLY PLACED HIMSELF WITHIN RANGE. SUDDENLY I FEEL A POKE ON MY ARM AND A WOMAN ANNOUNCING SHE WANTS TO GIVE ME MONEY. I REFUSE HER OFFER AND ASK HER TO LEAVE ME ALONE. SHE POKES AGAIN AND AGAIN ANNOUNCES, "WE WANT TO GIVE YOU MONEY". I AM NOW BOTHERED AND REPEAT MY REFUSAL AND SUGGEST SHE FIND SOMETHNG TO DO.

(ACT TWO) POLICEMAN, IN A LITTLE VOICE

JUST HAPPENED TO BE IN THE AREA POLICEMAN COMES OVER AND TELLS ME I SHOULDN'T YELL AT THE "LADY". I INFORM HIM THAT I REFUSED HER OFFER FOR MONEY AND HAD TO ASK HER AGAIN TO LEAVE ME ALONE. HE INSISTS THAT I NOT YELL AT HER BECAUSE IT IS "HARASSMENT". I INFORM HIM THAT POKING SOMEONE AND INSISTING THAT THEY TAKE MONEY WHEN THEY HAVE REFUSED IT IS HARASSMENT, AND I WOULD APPRECIATE HIM SHOWING ME IN THE MORNING WHERE THE LAW STATES YELLING IS ALSO. HE WARNS ME NOT TO "EVEN START WITH ME". TO THE CONTRARY... SINCE I SAW NO CODE EXPLAINING THE HARASSMENT SUGGESTION,I BELIEVE I SHOULD BE QUITE FINISHED WITH OFFICER KUPAHEA, AS I AM TOLD HIS NAME IS.
