:stop Missile threat alert for Hawaii a false alarm

Washington (CNN)An emergency alert notification sent out on Saturday claiming a "ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii" was a false alarm, according to the Hawaii Office of Emergency Management and a tweet from one of the state's Democratic congresswomen.

"BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND TO HAWAII. SEEK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL," the emergency alert read.
While the message caused concern on social media, the Hawaii Office of Emergency Management quickly responded on Twitter, saying, "NO missile threat to Hawaii."

Hawaii Emergency Management Agency Administrator Vern Miyagi is headed to the agency's 24-hour operations center to find out why the false alert about a ballistic missile was sent out, according to an email to CNN.
"The warning was a mistake," Miyagi said.
A second emergency alert was sent to phones in Hawaii 38 minutes after the initial message confirming the false alarm.
Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard also posted to Twitter, reassuring citizens that she has confirmed with officials that "there is no incoming missile" and told CNN's Jake Tapper the alert was "inadvertent."
Commander David Benham, a spokesman for US Pacific Command confirmed in a statement that there is no threat: "USPACOM has detected no ballistic missile threat to Hawaii," the statement read. "Earlier message was sent in error. State of Hawaii will send out a correction message as soon as possible."
White House spokesperson Lindsay Walters referred all questions about the alert to the Department of Defense.
Hawaii Sen. Brian Schatz also took to Twitter on Saturday in the wake of the false alarm.
"There is no missile threat," the Democratic senator tweeted. "It was a false alarm based on a human error. There is nothing more important to Hawaii than professionalizing and fool-proofing this process."
Hawaii Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono echoed that point in her own tweet.
"At a time of heightened tensions, we need to make sure all information released to community is accurate," she wrote. "We need to get to the bottom of what happened and make sure it never happens again."

At least false alarms means that we have alarms.

I'd highly doubt Hawaii would be an NK target. More like: downtown Washington, Trump Tower NYC and Mar-a-Lago FL or nothing and it certainly won't be a single missile.

Trumps pushed them to mass production.

You really are clueless, aren't you? Or are you just trolling?

Not at all.

The US military discovers a ballistic missile inbound to the United States. The first thing they would do would be to get the president into the situation room. Before the missile strikes they start talking about options. Don't tell me they don't - You damn well know we have boomers sitting off the coast of NK ready to launch in this exact scenario. Trump, with his utter lack of experience (who doesn't know what an F-52 is) jumps the gun and starts ordering missile strikes... I can see Trump being this stupid.

In this case they couldn't get Trump into the situation room, but trust me he travels with with a full staff and they have something set up where ever he is not to mention Air Force One is nearby.

Thankfully in this case there was no missile, and this was a state issue and not a US military thing. But I could totally see Trump over reacting over something like this.

Let me ask you:

If this was a confirmed missile coming in from NK about to land on US soil - what is the appropriate reaction?

At least the USA has good faith that North Korean technology is better than their own so a nuclear mistake never happens.

What's it like 4 times in the past 6 months the USA have flown flown fully loaded B52's straight at NK only to veer away at the last minute, and backed these actions by staging full on live firing military games 50 miles offshore from NK. And the fuckers never took the bait despite repeated tries from the USA to provoke a nuclear response.
